In this paper, we propose a hybrid crystal oscillator which achieves both quick startup and low steady-state power consumption. At startup, a large negative resistance is realized by configuring a Pierce oscillating circuit with a multi-stage inverter amplifier, resulting in high-speed startup. During steady-state oscillation, the oscillator is reconfigured as a class-C complementary Colpitts circuit for low power consumption and low phase noise. Prototype chips were fabricated in 65nm CMOS process technology. With Pierce-type configuration, the measured startup time and startup energy of the oscillator are reduced to 1/11 and 1/5, respectively, compared with the one without Pierce-type configuration. The power consumption during steady oscillation is 30 μW.
