Abstract in another language
This paper presents a 60 GHz Quad-Core push-push VCO in 45 nm partially depleted Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) CMOS. The measured phase noise (PN) at 60.5 GHz is −101.7 dB/Hz at 1 MHz offset from carrier. The continuous frequency-tuning range (FTR) is 19 . The Quad-Core VCO consumes only 40 mW DC power. The complete circuit including fundamental and second harmonic (H2) output buffers draws 110 mA from a single 1 V supply. The VCO cores are coupled via resonant-tank transformers. A similar transformer-coupled Dual-Core VCO is fabricated and measured to prove the relative PN improvement between Dual-Core and Quad-Core topology. The total area of the Quad-Core VCO excluding pads is 0.1 mm²
