摘要
A 10 GHz low power voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) is implemented in TSMC 0.18 mu m 1P6M CMOS process. The designed circuit topology constructed in a modified conventional current reused configuration. It is adopt two dc level shifters and using negative resistance enhancement technique. At the supply voltage 1.6v, the measured output phase noise is -106.9 dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset frequency from the carrier frequency of 10.19 GHz. The core power consumption is 2.88 m W, and tuning range of frequency is about 600MHz, from 9.5 to 10.1 GHz. The chip area is 0.540 x 0.717 (mm(2)).
