This letter presents a new quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO). The LC-tank QVCO consists of two first-harmonic injection-locked oscillators (ILOs). The outputs of one ILO are injected to the gates of the tail transistors on the other ILO and vice versa so as to force the two ILOs operate in quadrature. The proposed CMOS QVCO has been implemented with the TSMC 0.18 mum CMOS technology and the die area is 0.582 times 0.972 mm2. At the supply voltage of 1.0 V, the total power consumption is 8.0 mW. The free-running frequency of the QVCO is tunable from 5.31 GHz to 5.75 GHz as the tuning voltage is varied from 0.0 V to 1.0 V. The measured phase noise at 1 MHz offset is -120.01 dBc/Hz at the oscillation frequency of 5.31 GHz and the figure of merit (FOM) of the proposed QVCO is about -185.48 dBc/Hz. 相似文献

5-GHz Low-Phase Noise CMOS Quadrature VCO 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
A 5-GHz low-phase noise CMOS quadrature voltage controlled oscillator (QVCO) is described. Two differential pairs (one for negative gm generation and the other one for the coupling input) of each resonator have separate biasing transistors which are switched on and off by the coupling input of each resonator. The proposed QVCO implemented in a 0.13-mum CMOS technology shows 17-dB phase noise improvement from a conventional QVCO with constant tail current sources while the two QVCOs consume the same power of 5.28mW. The phase noise of the proposed QVCO is measured to be -102dBc/Hz and -117dBc/Hz at 100KHz and 1-MHz offset, respectively 相似文献

A 1-V 17-GHz 5-mW quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) based on transformer coupling is presented. Transformer coupling between two LC tank oscillators is proposed to achieve quadrature outputs with improved performance in terms of high frequency, wide tuning range, low phase noise, and low power as compared to existing active-coupling QVCOs. Implemented in a 0.18-mum CMOS process, the proposed QVCO measures a frequency tuning range of 16.5% at 17 GHz and phase noise of -110 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset while consuming 5 mA from a 1-V power supply and occupying a core area of 0.37 mm2. 相似文献

A novel low-voltage quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (QVCO) with voltage feedback to the input gate of a switching amplifier is proposed and implemented using the standard TSMC 0.18-mum CMOS 1P6M process. The proposed circuit topology is made up of two low-voltage LC-tank VCOs, where the coupled QVCO is obtained using the transformer coupling technique. At the 0.7-V supply voltage, the output phase noise of the VCO is -124.9 dBc/Hz at 1-MHz offset frequency from the carrier frequency of 2.4GHz, and the figure of merit is -185.35dBc/Hz. Total power consumption is 5.18 mW. Tuning range is about 135 MHz while the control voltage was tuned from 0 to 0.7V 相似文献

A low phase noise Ka-band CMOS voltage-controlled oscillator is proposed in this paper. A new complementary Colpitts structure was adopted in a 0.18-μm CMOS process to achieve differential-ended outputs, low phase-noise performance, and low-power consumption. The designed VCO oscillates from 29.8 to 30 GHz with 200 MHz tuning range. The measured phase noise at 1-MHz offset is −109 dBc/Hz at 30 GHz and −105.5 dBc/Hz at 29.8 GHz. The power consumption of VCO is only 27 mW. In addition, compared with the published papers, the proposed CMOS VCO achieves the best figure of merit (FOM) of −185 dB at 29.95-GHz band. 相似文献

A current-reused quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator (CR-QVCO) is proposed with the cross-coupled transformer-feedback technology for the quadrature signal generation. This CR-QVCO has the advantages of low-voltage/low-power operation with an adequate phase noise performance. A compact differential three-port transformer, in which two half-circle secondary coils are carefully designed to optimize the effective turn ratio and the coupling factor, is newly constructed to satisfy the need of signal coupling and to save the area consumption simultaneously. The quadrature oscillator providing a center frequency of 7.128 GHz for the ultrawideband (UWB) frequency synthesizer use is demonstrated in a 0.18 mum RF CMOS technology. The oscillator core dissipates 2.2 mW from a 1 V supply and occupies an area of 0.48 mm2. A tuning range of 330 MHz (with a maximum control voltage of 1.8 V) can be achieved to stand the frequency shift caused by the process variation. The measured phase noise is -111.2 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset from the center frequency. The IQ phase error shown is less than 2deg. The calculated figure-of-merit (FOM) is 184.8 dB. 相似文献

CMOS VCO and LNA Using Tuned-Input Tuned-Output Circuits 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A tuned-input tuned-output (TITO) VCO utilizes two resonant-tanks to achieve a low measured phase noise of 130.5 dBc/Hz @ 1 MHz offset from 2.5 GHz center frequency. Improvement in phase noise is achieved with comparable power consumption and tuning range compared to a cross-coupled VCO topology. A TITO cell similar to that in the VCO is used as a common-source amplifier in a current-reuse configuration cascaded with a -boosted common-gate amplifier to realize a high gain (20 dB), low power (2.7 mW) LNA. A technique to improve the linearity of the current-reuse LNA is also presented. 相似文献

A low phase noise and low power LC voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) has been designed using a 65-nm CMOS process. The phase noise is minimized by switching the differential core using a rectangular shaped voltage waveform, which is formed by a harmonic tuned LC tank assisted by a gm3 boosting circuit. The gm3 boosting circuit effectively maximizes the slope at the zero crossing point and reduces the transition time in which the switching transistor is operated at the triode region. The rectangular switching technique has improved the phase noise of the oscillator by 10 dB. The 450 mum times 540 mum chip consumes 4.34 mW. The proposed VCO has phase noises of -83.3, -110.7, and -131.8 dBc/Hz at 10 KHz, 100 KHz, and 1 MHz offset frequencies, respectively, from the 1.6-GHz carrier frequency. 相似文献

A novel circuit topology suitable for millimeter-wave voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) is presented. With the admittance-transforming technique, the proposed VCO can operate at a frequency close to the fmax of the transistors while maintaining remarkable circuit performance in terms of phase noise, tuning range, and output power. Using a standard micrometer CMOS process, a U-band VCO is implemented for demonstration. The fabricated circuit exhibits a frequency tuning range of 1.1 GHz in the vicinity of 50 GHz. The measured output power and phase noise at 1-MHz offset are -11 dBm and -101 dBc/Hz, respectively. Operated at a supply voltage of 1.8 V, the VCO core consumes a DC power of 45 mW. 相似文献

A technique to extract differential second harmonic output signals in a CMOS LC voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) is introduced. In a cross-coupled n-type field effect transistor (NFET) and p-channel field effect transistor (PFET) VCO topology, the upper and lower common source nodes of the FET pairs can provide well-balanced differential second harmonic output by resonating the impedances at the common source nodes and operating the VCO in the voltage-limited regime. The idea is verified experimentally by implementing a 5.6-GHz CMOS VCO having a tunable impedance element at the common source node. The error signal power between the differential signals is measured to be -70dBm when properly tuned, which indicates almost perfect differentiality of the second harmonic output signals 相似文献
