It employed the inductive-biasing to build a feedback path between the tank and the MOS gate to enhance the voltage gain from output nodes of the tank to the gate node of the cross-coupled transistor. Theoretical analysis using timevarying phase noise theory derives closed-form symbolic formulas for the 1/f^2 phase noise region, showing that this feedback path could improve the phase noise performance. The proposed VCO is fabricated in TSMC 0.13 m CMOS technology. Working under a 0.3 V supply voltage with 1.2 m W power consumption, the measured phase noise of the VCO is –119.4 d Bc/Hz at 1 MHz offset frequency from the carrier of 4.92 GHz, resulting in an Fo M of 192.5 d Bc/Hz.展开更多
