p525 A Fully Integrated 1.2-GHz CMOS Phase-Locked Loop

Abstract:
A 1.2GHz phase-locked loop (PLL) is designed in a 0.18um 3.3V 1P6M CMOS RF technology.

I. Introduction
II. PLL Design

2.1 LC Oscillator
The circuit of LC VCO used in this paper is shown
in Fig.2.

2.2 Frequency Divider and Prescaler
In the PLL, there are two dividers, the reference
divider and the feedback divider.

Because output frequency of the VCO is very high,
a high frequency prescaler should be added between
VCO and the feedback divider [4].

detector.

p540 A low-Phase- noise CMOS Ring Oscillator with differential Control

Abstract
I. Introduction
II. Circuit design
III. Simulation and Comparison
The circuit is implemented in a 0.18um standard CMOS technology. The core layout of
the proposed VCRO without the pads is shown in Figure 3.

To determine the tuning range and the linearity of the proposed VCO, a parametric
analysis is performed in which the steady state frequency is measured for several control voltages.
