An ultra-low power 4.3 GHz Synchronous Oscillator (SO) is presented, integrated in a 0.25 µm BiCMOS SiGe technology, to act as the RF loop of an UMTS double-loop synthesizer. This SO is tunable in order to counteract technology discrepancies. Hence, the synchronization range is smaller, reducing unwanted synchronization and improving the frequency generation accuracy. This 1.8 V SO provides a -115 dBc/Hz phase noise at 100 kHz offset, consuming only 3.6 mW.
