Abstract
In this paper, a voltage-controlled ring oscillator (VCO) with wide linear tuning frequency range capability, based on transmission gates, is described. It also features a rapid voltage swing and a 50% duty cycle independent of the control voltage. Fabricated in the TSMC 0.35 μm 1P4M, 3.3 V CMOS process, the VCO achieves an operating frequency range of 4.8 Hz to 256 MHz. The measured peak-to-peak and rms jitter are 41 ps and 5.8 ps while operating at 200 MHz.
