- A current reuse cross-coupling transformer-based VCO with low phase noise and low power consumption was implemented in 0.13μm CMOS. The oscillation frequency was tuned from 46GHz to 6GHz (26% tuning range) using two different-sized varactor that adjusted fine and coarse tuning. The measured phase noise at 5.0GHz was -124dBc/Hz (1MHz offset) and maximum output power level was -5.5dBm. The 0.4×0.3mm2 core consumes very low power of 1.8mW for 1.2V and FOM has -196.2dB. © 2008 IEEE.
