This paper presents a low power millimeter-wave oscillator consisting of a current-reused topology and buffer-feedback. By connecting a buffer-feedback topology between the core LC-tank of the oscillator and the output buffer stage, the simulated oscillation frequency of the proposed oscillator is increased by 17%, compared to that of the conventional current-reused oscillator. In addition, to obtain the same output power, the proposed oscillator reduces the power dissipation by 47%, compared to that of the conventional buffer-feedback oscillator. The prototype of the proposed oscillator is fabricated in a 65nm CMOS technology with a size of 700µm×480µm including pad. Measurement results indicate an oscillation frequency of 71.3GHz, while dissipating 10mA from a 1.6V supply.
