摘要：A 4. 224GHz quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator （Qvco） applied in MB-OFDM UWB synthesizers is implemented in 0.18μm RF-CMOS technology. An improved structure of the Qvco is presented for better phase noise. A novel configuration of a MOS varactor is designed for good linearity of K as well as a new digital capacitor controlled array topology with lower parasitic capacitance and lower Ron. Measurement results show a phase noise of - 90.4dBc/Hz at 100kHz offset and - 116.7dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset from a carrier close to 4. 224GHz. The power dissipation is 10. 55mW from a 1.8V supply.

摘要：A design and implementation for a 2.4GHz quadrature output frequency synthesizer intended for bluetooth in 0. 35μm CMOS technology are presented. A differentially controlled quadrature voltage-controlled oscillator （Qvco） is employed to generate quadrature （I/Q） signals. A second-order loop filter, with a unit gain transconductance amplifier having the performance of a third-order loop filter,is exploited for low cost. The measured spot phase noise is -106.15dBc/Hz@ 1MHz. Close-in phase noise is less than -70dBc/Hz. The synthesizer consumes 13.5mA under a 3.3V voltage supply. The core size is 1.3mm×0. 8mm.
