A Class-C Type Wideband Current-Reused VCO With Two-Step Automatic Amplitude Calibration Loop
This paper presents a wideband Current-Reused Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) with 2-Step Automatic Amplitude Calibration (AAC). Tuning range of the proposed VCO is from 1.95 GHz to 3.15 GHz. The mismatch of differential voltage is within 0.6 %. At 2.423 GHz, the phase noise is -116.3 dBc/Hz at...

Summary: | This paper presents a wideband Current-Reused Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) with 2-Step Automatic Amplitude Calibration (AAC). Tuning range of the proposed VCO is from 1.95 GHz to 3.15 GHz. The mismatch of differential voltage is within 0.6 %. At 2.423 GHz, the phase noise is -116.3 dBc/Hz at the 1 MHz offset frequency with the current consumption of 2.6 mA. The VCO is implemented $0.13{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The layout size is $720{\times}580{\mu}m^2$. |
