Its structure is analyzed and the main parameters are proposed. A monolithic LC-tuned voltage controlled oscillator （LCVCO） with low phase noise is fabricated with TSMC 0.18μm RF （radio frequency） CMOS technology. The measured phase noise is - ll7dBc/Hz at 4MHz off the center frequency of 4. 189GHz. A down-scaling circuit with low power dissipation was fabricated in a TSMC 0.18μm mixed-signal CMOS process. The measured results show that the IC can work well under a 1.8V power supply. Its total power dissipation is only 13mW.展开更多

An improved structure of the QVCO is presented for better phase noise. A novel configuration of a MOS varactor is designed for good linearity of K as well as a new digital capacitor controlled array topology with lower parasitic capacitance and lower Ron. Measurement results show a phase noise of - 90.4dBc/Hz at 100kHz offset and - 116.7dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset from a carrier close to 4. 224GHz. The power dissipation is 10. 55mW from a 1.8V supply.展开更多
