When Φ=1, VREF is generated by the voltage division of the resistors R1 Pui-In Mak2, Shiheng Yang1 University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Chengdu, China 2 University of Macau, Macau, China 3 M-CHIP, Chengdu, China 4 Fudan University, Shanghai, China 1 RC oscillators as timers have shown improved frequency stability in recent years [1-23]. However, controlling their robustness against PVT variations often incurs extra area and power budgets. The closed-loop RC oscillators ([4-13]), aided by a frequency-locked loop (FLL), can outperform their open-loop counterparts in terms of frequency stability, but at the expense of area, power and circuit complexity (e.g. switched resistors [8-12] and
