7
Cross-Coupled Oscillator
• Looks like a diff pair with positive feedback.
• Oscillation freq is given by:
8
Use of Symmetric Inductor
• Requires accurate model of inductor.can’t begin design without a usefulinductor library.
9
Output Swing
• Peak differential output voltage swing is given by:
• How much is the output CM level?
13
VCO Type I
• To maximize tuning range, we wish to minimize C1.
• But C1 is given by:- Caps of M1 and M2 (including 4Cgd)- Cap of L1- Input cap of next stage
• Tuning range may be limited.
15
Varactor Modulation by IDD
• Noise of current mirror becomes the dominant source.
• Does this effect exist in Type I VCO?
17
VCO Type IV
• Select device dimensions to set the output CM level to about Vdd/2.
• Output swing twice that of previous topologies.
• But tail noise modulates varactors.
