摘要
In this paper a PMOS-NMOS cross-coupled voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) using 0.25 mu m CMOS technology is demonstrated. This VCO consumes 6.6 mW DC power for a supply voltage of 2.5 V. The tuning range is about 15% from 5 GHz to 5.8 GHz, while the control voltage is tuned from 0 V to 2.5 V. Over the entire frequency tuning range a constant high output power of around 0 dBm is obtained leading to a good drive ability for mixer circuits. Measured phase noise for the free running VCO is about -90 dBc/Hz and below at 1 MHz offset frequency.
