چکیده
| In this tutorial paper, we review fundamentals of oscillator phase noise emphasizing its physical picture based on the concept of phase di®usion. This review is intended to provide an essential understanding of phase noise rather than a comprehensive phase noise modeling. We then summarize several phase noise reduction techniques for various types of oscillators. Index Terms|oscillators, phase noise, integrated circuits, analog integrated circuits, radio-frequency (RF) circuits.

A 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...

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...
متن کاملAnalysis of Oscillation Amplitude and Phase Error in Multiphase LC Oscillators
Abstract This work proposes a novel method to find the phase error and oscillation amplitude in multiphase LC oscillators. A mathematical approach is used to find the relationship between every stage's output phase and its coupling factor. To much more general analysis, every stage assumed to have a different coupling factor. The mismatches in LC tanks are considered as the main source of pha...

There have beem many studies on the analysis and design of low-noise oscillators. Recently, much attention has been paid to the noise reduction technique using coupled oscillators. When oscillators are coupled, the coupling method is very important and affects various factors, for example, the level of noise. In this study, we analyze the phase noise of multiphase CMOS LC oscillators coupled by...
متن کاملComparison and analysis of phase noise in ring oscillators
Voltage-controlled oscillators are widely used circuit blocks, particularly in phase-locked loops. As CMOS is the technology of choice for many applications, CMOS oscillators with low phase noise and timing jitter are highly desired. CMOS ring oscillators with five different delay cell topologies have been designed, fabricated and evaluated for phase noise performance. Our results show that rin...
