Low voltage ring oscillator.
The vco circuit realized through 0 18µm cmos process parameter shows wide operating frequency from 1 624ghz to 3 229 ghz.
Since the ring oscillator operates from a low voltage source it can be used in applications where power supply e g battery size is small e g pagers cellular phone applications.
Consequently a vco can be used for frequency modulation fm or phase modulation pm by applying a modulating signal to the control input.
To let the oscillator function at 10 millivolt the gain of a single j fet appears not to be enough.
A vco is also an integral part of a phase locked.
This type of oscillator has a direct dc coupling between the gate and source by the winding n1 of the transformer.
The control voltage range but also the operation frequency in low voltage operation.
A voltage controlled oscillator vco is an electronic oscillator whose oscillation frequency is controlled by a voltage input.
The applied input voltage determines the instantaneous oscillation frequency.
This paper presents a wide frequency range low power dissipation cmos voltage controlled ring oscillator based on three stage differential current steering amplifiers csa cell.
