A 38% Tuning Range 6-GHz Fully Integrated VCO
Summary :
A 6 GHz integrated VCO using SiGe BiCMOS process has been studied. The integrated inductors were realized by third metal with 3 µm thickness aluminum and its Q=20 at 6 GHz. The amplifier consisted of bipolar transistor. Tuning range was 38% with 0 V to 3 V tuning voltage. Phase noise of -100 dBc/Hz was obtained at 1 MHz offset from carrier frequency. The current consumption of VCO was 4.9 mA at 3 V power supply.
