Abstract :
A 35.56GHz all-digital phase-locked loop with high resolution varactors is presented. To enhance the frequency resolution for a high-frequency digitally controlled oscillator, the proposed varactor with its body connected to digital control bits is presented. A 35.56GHz all-digital PLL is realized in 90nm CMOS process. The measured peak-to-peak jitter and rms jitter are 3.84ps and 349.1fs, respectively, at 35.56GHz.
