Abstract :
This paper deals with the design of an LC Voltage Controlled Oscillators using MHS SCMOS3 0.5 μm process. A sizing method is proposed to meet the WiFi and Bluetooth standards requirement. The layout of the circuit with CADENCE environment has been accomplished. Based on this layout, post layout simulations were performed and circuit improvement has been proposed in order to overcome parasites drawback.
