Design and Simulation of an X Band LC VCO

Design and Analysis of LC-VCO for Ultra Wide-Band Operation

A modified inductance-capacitance voltage controlled oscillator (LC-VCO) topology is presented in this paper. NMOS only varactor has been used instead of variable capacitance. The frequency of oscillation of the VCO is 7.68GHz with a power dissipation of 5.68mW. The designed oscillator is characterized by a tuning range of 26.73%. Compared to the reference circuit, there is an improvement in fr...

Design of VCO for Microwave Frequency Band

Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) is an important building block in wireless communication system. In this paper a five stage current starved Voltage Controlled Oscillator (CMOS VCO) is designed which is used in Phase Lock Loop (PLL). The design is implemented on CADENCE VIRTUOSO Platform with high oscillation frequency and low power dissipation. The oscillation frequency of the designed VCO ...

simulation and design of electronic processing circuit for restaurants e-procurement system

the poor orientation of the restaurants toward the information technology has yet many unsolved issues in regards to the customers. one of these problems which lead the appeal list of later, and have a negative impact on the prestige of the restaurant is the case when the later does not respond on time to the customers’ needs, and which causes their dissatisfaction. this issue is really sensiti...

Implementation of a Power Optimized Lc Vco & Mixer Co-design

An 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...

Dual Band CMOS Quadrature VCO using Reconfigurable LC Tank and Coupled Transistors

To qualify the condition of a multi standard and a multi band transceiver, a quadrature voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), which has a wide and proper tuning range, is necessary, while providing high phase noise performance and consuming low current. In this paper, a dual band quadrature VCO in 0.18 μm CMOS process is proposed. To attain the dual band operation, a reconfigureurable LC tank is...
