  • Abstract
    A digitally-controlled oscillator (DCO) with multi-phase differential outputs is presented. The DCO uses ten stages differential delay cell so as to have 20 output phases. The DCO´s frequency tuning range covers 1GHz and 1.2GHz among different process corners. The DCO is designed and verified by 65nm CMOS technology. The simulated phase noise of the DCO is -96.25dBc/Hz at 1MHz offset from 1.2GHz center frequency. The power consumption is 7.4mW at 1.2GHz with 20 phases. The area is 120μm×90μm.
