Abstract

The invention provides a relaxation oscillator and an electronic device. The relaxation oscillator comprises: a charge and discharge unit; a switch unit, configured to control the charge and dischargeunit to charge and discharge periodically; a comparator unit, configured to compare the voltage on the charge and discharge unit with a reference voltage; and a trigger unit, configured to generate an oscillating signal based on an output signal of the comparator unit and output the oscillating signal to the switch unit to control the charge and discharge unit to charge and discharge periodically; wherein the comparator unit uses a hysteresis comparator, the hysteresis voltage of the hysteresis comparator is Vh, the swing voltage of voltage signals on the charge and discharge unit is Vs, thecycle when the relaxation oscillator works is T, and the reaction time t of the trigger unit satisfies: Vh > 2Vs x t/T. The relaxation oscillator can eliminate self-excitation of a potential fast feedback loop, so that the stability of the relaxation oscillator is improved. The electronic device has similar advantages.
