摘要
采用SMIC0.18μm1P6M RF CMOS工艺设计了一个4.8GHzLC压控振荡器,该压控振荡器应用于无线传感SoC芯片射频前端频率综合器中。电路核心采用带电阻反馈的差分负阻结构,因此具有良好的相位噪声性能;2bit的开关电容阵列进一步提高了电路的调谐范围;共源级输出缓冲提供了较好的反向隔离度。所设计的芯片版图面积为600μm×475μm。在电源电压为1.8V时,后仿真结果表明,电路调谐范围最高可达40%,有效地补偿了工艺角偏差;在4.95GHz处,后仿真测得的相位噪声为-125.3dBc/Hz@3MHz,优于系统要求5.3dB;核心电路工作电流约5.2mA。
A 4.8 GHz LC voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) used in frequency synthesizer for Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) SoC is designed based on SMIC 0. 18-μm 1P6 M RF CMOS process. The core circuit adopting differential negative resistance structure with resistor feedback achieves good phase noise performance. The 2 hit switch capacitor array provides extra tuning range. The output buffer of common source structure is of decent reverse isolation. The layout size is 600μ×475 μm. With a 1.8 V supply voltage, the post-simulation shows that the achieved maximum 40% tuning range can perfectly compensating the deviation due to process corners. The post-simulation measured phase noise of-125.3 dBc/Hz@3 MHz with the carrier of 4. 95 GHz is 5.3 dB better than the design target. The operating current of core circuit is about 5.2 mA.
