Abstract :
In this paper we present the design of LC voltage control oscillator (VCO) operating at 2.4GHz in 130nm CMOS technology using the current reuse topology, achieving a Phase Noise of -118dBc/Hz @ 1MHz with a turning range from 2.52GHz to 2.23GHz, control voltage from 0V to 1.2V while dissipating 232.4μW at resonance with 1.2V supply voltage.
