  • Abstract
    This paper presents an overview of frequency synthesizers for RF transceivers. Commonly used architectures are discussed as well as their most challenging building blocks, i.e. the VCO and the high-speed frequency dividers. High performance PLLs demand optimal technology processes. Technology requirements will be indicated during the discussions.
