Wide Tuning Range LC-VCO Using Variable Inductor for Reconfigurable RF Circuit
This paper presents a novel wide tuning range CMOS Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO). VCO uses an on-chip variable inductor as an additional variable element to extend the tuning range of VCO. The fabricated variable inductor achieves the variable range of 35%. The VCO was fabricated using 0.35 μm standard CMOS process, and can be tuned continuously from 2.13 GHz to 3.28 GHz (tuning range of ...
متن کاملLC-active VCO for CMOS RF transceivers
A novel fully integrated CMOS LC tank VCO is presented. The LC tanks are implemented by exploiting the active circuit ‘boot-strapped inductor’ (BSI), which behaves like a high-quality factor inductor. Particularly, the LC tanks have been implemented by introducing a new version of the CMOS BSI circuit, which provides better versatility and design reliability. In order to verify the effectivenes...
متن کاملLow-phase-noise Cmos Vco with Harmonically Tuned Lc Tank
A low-phase-noise voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) has been demonstrated using a harmonically tuned LC resonance tank. In this circuit configuration, the voltage shape at the differential cell is almost rectangular; thus, the cell is switched effectively and the phase noise is reduced. More importantly, the proposed tank suppresses downconversion of the noise around 2f0 to the phase noise, d...
متن کاملDesign and Simulation of an X Band LC VCO
In this paper, a systematic method for the circuit parameters design of a monolithic LC Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) is reported. The method is based on the negative resistance generation technique. As a result, a VCO has been designed in 0.18um CMOS technology using a conventional VCO structure to obtain the optimum values for the phase noise and power consumption. The simulation result...
