Problems solved by technology

[0008] Measuring the performance of a voltage controlled oscillator mainly includes the following parameters: center frequency (center frequency), tuning range (tuning range), tuning linearity ( tuninglinearity), output amplitude (outputamplitude), phase noise (phasenoise), power supply and common-mode rejection ratio (supplyandcommon-moderejection), power consumption (powerdissipation), etc., in order to accurately test the above RF parameters, it is usually designed to be in On-line test on the RF probe station, but because the output amplitude of the oscillator with a higher frequency is small, sometimes the oscillation signal cannot be tested

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor integrated circuit, in particular to a voltage-controlled oscillator. Background technique [0002] An oscillator is a circuit that converts DC power energy into AC energy. In order to be able to generate a self-sustaining output oscillating signal, that is, a radio frequency signal, without an external input signal, the oscillator itself must have positive feedback and sufficient gain to overcome the loss on the feedback path, and a frequency-selective network is also required. [0003] Many applications require that the frequency of the oscillator is a function of the control voltage and is adjustable, and the voltage-controlled oscillator meets this requirement, such as figure 1 Shown is a circuit structure diagram of an existing voltage-controlled oscillator; the existing voltage-controlled oscillator includes: [0004] The LC resonant circuit module is used to generate an oscillating signal of a required ...
