1. An oscillator system comprising:

  • an oscillator sub-circuit to generate an oscillation frequency; and

    an amplitude-limiter sub-circuit to provide feedback to the oscillator sub-circuit to control an amplitude level of the oscillation frequency, wherein the amplitude-limiter sub-circuit includes a switched-capacitor network to control the feedback based on a switching frequency and the amplitude level of the oscillation frequency.
