Abstract

The invention discloses a low phase noise LC-VCO which comprises a PMOS tube Mp1, a PMOS tube Mp2, a PMOS tube Mp3, a PMOS tube Mp4, an NMOS tube Mn1, an NMOS tube Mn2, a fixed capacitor C1, a fixed capacitor C2, a fixed capacitor Cc1, a fixed capacitor Cc2, a variable capacitor Cvar1, a variable capacitor Cvar2, inductors ind at two ends, a resistor R1 and a resistor R2. Through the fixed capacitor Cc1 and the fixed capacitor Cc2, oscillation voltage waveforms are coupled to the grid electrodes of PMOS tubes of tail current sources which are connected in parallel, the tail current source dynamic switching technology is adopted, the current waveform duty ratio of the negative resistance MOS tubes which are in cross coupling is reduced, traps of the MOS tubes of the tail current sources are reduced, and phase noise of the LC-VCO is lowered. In addition, substrates of negative resistance PMOSs which are in cross coupling are connected with the ground, the threshold voltages of the PMOSs which are in cross coupling are reduced, currents provided by negative resistance are increased, and the phase noise of the LC-VCO is lowered.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of inductance-capacitance voltage-controlled oscillators, and more specifically to a low-phase noise LC-VCO. Background technique [0002] As a high-frequency signal generation module, the inductor-capacitor voltage-controlled oscillator usually provides a low-jitter clock of a certain frequency for other circuits. With the continuous improvement of the communication rate, the frequency requirements for the LC-VCO are getting higher and higher, and the phase noise requirements for the oscillator at high frequencies are becoming more and more stringent. [0003] The core of the LC-VCO's oscillation is the capacitor and inductor in parallel, and since both the inductor and the capacitor have losses, the outside world needs to continuously provide the energy required for the oscillation during the oscillation process. Under normal circumstances, the use of cross-coupled MOS transistors to form a negative resistance c...
