For a voltage supply V<sub>DD</sub> = 1.8 V, the resulting set of performance parameters include power consumption P<sub><sub></sub>DC</sub> = 4.68 mW and phase noise PN@1MHz = -107.8 dBc/Hz. From the trade-off involving P<sub>DC</sub> and PN, a system level high performance is obtained considering a reference figure-of-merit ( FoM = -224 dBc/Hz ). Implemented at schematic level by applying CMOS-based technology (UMC L180), the proposed VCRO was designed at Cadence environment and optimized at MunEDA WiCkeD tool.展开更多
