Problems solved by technology

Therefore, even if the oscillator uses the power supply output by the voltage regulator, the control voltage uses a filter to filter out noise, and multiple isolation rings are used to isolate the rebound of noise on the ground of the power supply, there will still be a problem of converting amplitude noise into frequency modulation noise, making the oscillator The phase noise performance is greatly degraded by the

Abstract

The invention discloses an inductor-capacitor (LC) oscillator with basically constant variable capacitance in an oscillation period. The LC oscillator comprises a resonance network consisting of an inductor L and a self-adaptive compensation variable capacitor, a complementary cross-coupling negative resistance amplifier and a bias current source, wherein the variable capacitor is a self-adaptive compensation varactor (AC-Varactor). By dynamically compensating the variable capacitance of the AC-Varactor, variable capacitance variation caused by amplitude variation of output waveform is avoided, and frequency modulation caused by the amplitude variation is avoided, so that phase noise performance deterioration caused by amplitude noise is minimized. The LC oscillator overcomes the defects that in one oscillation period, the variable capacitance can change the oscillation frequency along with the change of voltage at two ends, and the oscillator phase noise performance is decreased by an amplitude modulation to frequency modulation (AM-FM) process; and the LC oscillator with the basically constant variable capacitance in the oscillation period has good phase noise performance and can be widely applied to wireless communication systems.
