Abstract :
Using the parasitic inductance usually associated with a bondwire in an IC package, a bipolar GHz LC-tuned oscillator is designed. Bondwires have very low series resistance and are thus suitable for high-Q applications. Measured results indicate very low phase noise and low power consumption
