1. A multiphase output oscillator which comprises:

  • a plurality of oscillator circuits coupled together to form a loop of serially coupled oscillator circuits,means for coupling each particular oscillator circuit in the loop to its respective serial predecessor oscillator circuit in the loop, the coupling means simultaneously providing each particular oscillator circuit with adjustment of frequency and/or phase of an oscillating signal of that particular oscillator circuit, dependent upon a respective difference between the phase of the oscillation signal in that particular oscillator circuit and a phase of the oscillation signal in its respective serial predecessor oscillator circuit, so as to maintain, in operation, said respective phase difference.
