Technological Limitations of Monolithic High-frequency Oscillators in Mos and Bipolar Processes

چکیده
At frequencies around ωx, the inductor can be equivalently modeled by the parallel circuit on the right where the conductance Gp relates to the resistance Rs as The relationship between the maximum oscillation frequency and the process parameter fT for two useful classes of oscillators is developed. Results show that the oscillation frequency of a class of LC-tank oscillators can be substantially higher than fT if high-Q inductors are used L Rs Gp L

Concept of Quasi-Capacitive Tapping of Bipolar Voltage-Controlled Oscillators
Generally, bipolar transistors have better performance than MOS transistors if higher transconductances for the same operating point or higher transition frequencies are required. On the other hand, compared to MOS transistors, bipolar transistors often have limited use in the design of VCO’s, due to a limited voltage swing across the resonator and therefore limited phase-noise performance. How...
متن کاملMonolithic Transformer-coupled Rf Power Amplifiers in Si-bipolar
Monolithic integrated lumped planar transformers were introduced more than ten years ago. We present a comprehensive review of the electrical characteristics which results in an accurate lumped low-order equivalent model. Amplifiers, mixers and Meissner-type voltage controlled oscillators using monolithic transformers have been published a few years ago. For the first time, integrated transform...

متن کاملInsulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) Basics
IGBT Fundamentals The Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is a minority-carrier device with high input impedance and large bipolar current-carrying capability. Many designers view IGBT as a device with MOS input characteristics and bipolar output characteristic that is a voltage-controlled bipolar device. To make use of the advantages of both Power MOSFET and BJT, the IGBT has been introdu...
متن کاملA New Solution to Analysis of CMOS Ring Oscillators
New equations are proposed for frequency and amplitude of a ring oscillator. The method is general enough to be used for all types of delay stages. Using exact largesignal circuit analysis, closed form equations for estimating the frequency and amplitude of a high frequency ring oscillator are derived as an example. The method takes into account the effect of various parasitic capacitors to...
