Study and simulation of CMOS LC oscillator phase noise and jitter

چکیده
In this work we review the processes of phase noise and jitter in electronic oscillators and the relationship between the two. Frequency and time domain simulation techniques and results are presented through the study of performance enhancement for a CMOS LC oscillator. The studied enhancements significantly reduce flicker noise upconversion, while the results demonstrate good agreement between time and frequency domain design approaches.

Design 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...
متن کاملA Phase Noise Reduction Technique in LC Cross-coupled Oscillators with Adjusting Transistors Operating Regions
In this paper, an intuitive analysis of a phase noise reduction technique is done, and then a modified structure is proposed to achieve higher phase noise reduction than the original one. This method reduces the impact of noise sources on the phase noise by decreasing closed-loop gain in zero-crossings points and moving this high closed-loop gain to the non-zero-crossings points. This reduction...

— This paper investigates the concept of using body bias as a design tool to optimize the timing jitter and power dissipation in single ended CMOS ring oscillators. A theoretical model for phase noise and timing jitter in ring oscillators is summarized and used as a basis for simulation of the impulse sensitivity function. Simulation results are then used to estimate timing jitter and phase noi...
متن کاملAn ultra-compact LC-VCO using a stacked-spiral inductor
This paper proposes an ultra compact LC-VCO. Due to the speed-up of CMOS digital circuits, jitter of ring oscillators is becoming a critical problem. Even though an LC-VCO has a better phase noise, a layout size of on-chip inductor is a problem as a clock generator. Thus, the proposed LC-VCO consists of a very compact stacked-spiral inductor and active components placed are beneath the inductor...
متن کاملThe Transient Behavior of LC and Ring Oscillators under External Frequency Injection
In this work, time domain analysis is used to solve Adler’s equation in order to obtain the required time, for an oscillator under external injection, reaching the steady-state condition. Mathematical approach has been applied to fully describe the transient of frequency acquisition in injection-locked LC and Ring oscillators considering their time-varying nature. Then, the analysis is verifie...
