Phase Noise in CMOS Differential LC Oscillators
An analysis of phase noise in differential cross-coupled tuned tank voltage controlled oscillators is presented. The effect of active device noise sources as well as the noise due to the passive elements are taken into account. The predictions are in good agreement with the measurements for different tail currents and supply voltages. The effect of the complementary cross-coupled pair is analyz...
متن کاملDesign Issues in CMOS Differential LC Oscillators
An analysis of phase noise in differential crosscoupled inductance–capacitance (LC) oscillators is presented. The effect of tail current and tank power dissipation on the voltage amplitude is shown. Various noise sources in the complementary cross-coupled pair are identified, and their effect on phase noise is analyzed. The predictions are in good agreement with measurements over a large range ...
متن کاملMore on the 1=f Phase Noise Performance of CMOS Differential-Pair LC-Tank Oscillators
This paper presents a rigorous phase noise analysis in the 1 f region for the differential CMOS LC-tank oscillator with both nMOS and pMOS switch pairs. A compact, closed-form phase noise equation is obtained, accounting for the noise contributions from both tank losses and transistors currents, which allows a robust comparison between LC oscillators built with either one or two switch pairs. T...
متن کاملA 1 mG lateral CMOS-MEMS accelerometer
This paper reports a lateral CMOS-MEMS accelerometer with a measured noise floor of 1mG/ and a dynamic range larger than 13G. The accelerometer is fully compatible with conventional CMOS processes enabling the integration of most of the conditioning circuits. It is fabricated in a three metal layer 0.5μm CMOS process followed by a two-step dry etch release. An improved curl matching technique i...
متن کاملA design approach for integrated CMOS LC-tank oscillators using bifurcation analysis
Electrical oscillators play a decisive role in integrated transceivers for wired and wireless communication systems. In this context the study of fully integrated differential VCOs has received attention. In this paper formulas for investigations of the stability as well as the amplitude of CMOS LC tank oscillators are derived, where an overall model of nonlinear gain elements is used. By means...
