Problems solved by technology

For example, coupling transistors in P-QVCO and S-QVCO may introduce additional noise and as a result degrade the phase noise of the quadrature voltage controlled oscillator
Also, the oscillation efficiency in conventional P-QVCO and S-QVCO is generally low

Abstract

A quadrature voltage controlled oscillator includes a first voltage controlled oscillator having a first current source, a first oscillator circuit, a first tuning circuit, and a first resonator tank; a second voltage controlled oscillator having a second current source, a second oscillator circuit, a second tuning circuit, and a second resonator tank. A first biasing circuit is connected between first and second transistors of the first oscillator circuit to bias them in a Class-C mode; and a second biasing circuit is connected between third and fourth transistors of the second oscillator circuit to bias them in the Class-C mode. The first and second voltage controlled oscillators are electrically coupled by bulk terminals of the first and second transistors coupled with drain terminals of the third and fourth transistors respectively, and bulk terminals of the third and fourth transistors coupled with drain terminals of the first and second transistors respectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to quadrature voltage controlled oscillators and in particular but not exclusively to CMOS wideband low phase noise Class C quadrature voltage controlled oscillators. Background technique [0002] Quadrature voltage controlled oscillators play an important role in modern wireless communication systems and are especially useful in applications requiring high-fidelity true quadrature signals, such as in wireless and wireline transceivers. One of the most popular types of quadrature voltage controlled oscillators is the LC quadrature voltage controlled oscillator, and it consists of two symmetrical LC tank voltage controlled oscillators coupled to each other. Typically, LC quadrature voltage controlled oscillators can be classified into parallel coupled quadrature voltage controlled oscillators (P-QVCO) and series coupled quadrature voltage controlled oscillators (S-QVCO). For the P-QVCO, the coupling transistors are placed ...
