Patent ID: 8330549

Claim:
An oscillator circuit with voltage booster, comprising: a first inductor; a second inductor magnetically coupled to the first inductor, a first terminal of the of the second inductor connected to a first terminal of the first inductor at an input voltage junction point; a first transistor having a first transistor emitter connected to the input voltage junction point, a first transistor collector and a first transistor base; a second transistor having a second transistor emitter connected to the input voltage common return point, a second transistor collector coupled to a second terminal of the first inductor and a second transistor base connected to the first transistor collector; a capacitor in series with the second inductor, having a capacitor first terminal connected to a second terminal of the second inductor and having a capacitor second terminal connected to the second transistor base; wherein when a direct current voltage is applied across the input voltage junction point and the input voltage common return point, and a predetermined voltage level is applied to the first transistor base to turn the first transistor ON then an oscillating voltage occurs at the second transistor collector.
