  • Abstract
    This paper presents a ring-voltage-controlled-oscillator (ring-VCO)-based sub-sampling phase locked loop (PLL) CMOS circuit with low phase noise and low jitter. A 2.08 GHz PLL is designed and fabricated in 65 nm CMOS technology. The PLL consumes 20.4 mW while the in-band phase noise is -119.1 dBc/Hz at 1.4 MHz and the output jitter integrated from 1 kHz to 10 MHz is 0.73 ps (rms). The figure of merit (FOM) is -229.7 dB, which is the best data ever reported.
