In order to be integrated with the baseband mixed-mode circuits and to achieve the requirements of low power and low cost, utilizing the complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) technology has become the design trends. Among the circuits of the communication systems, multi-phase voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) are essential building blocks. The thesis will focus on the design of high-speed multi-phase VCOs using CMOS technologies. The details of the thesis are organized as followed. In chapter 1, the applications of multi-phase VCOs in communication systems will be illustrated. The fundamentals of the oscillators from theories and circuit elements will be presented in chapter 2. Different kinds of multi-phase generators will be discussed in chapter 3. In chapter 4, a 9-GHz quadrature-phase VCO with a switched-bias technique is realized in TSMC CMOS 0.18-μm technology. In chapter 5, a 15-GHz/30-GHz dual-band multi-phase VCO with a phase error verification module is presented. Finally, a novel 43-GHz multi-phase VCO, which is suitable for the applications in the OC-768 optical communication systems, will be demonstrated in chapter 6.Acknowledgements Abstracts Table of Contents List of Figures List of Tables Chapter 1 Introduction 1 1.1 Motivation 1 1.2 Thesis Overview 3 Chapter 2 Oscillator Fundamentals 5 2.1 Oscillator Origins 5 2.2 Circuit Components 7 　 　2.2.1 MOS Device Physic 7 　 　2.2.2 Quality Factor 9 　　 2.2.3 Inductor 10 　　 2.2.4 Varactor 12 　　 2.2.5 Transmission Line 13 2.3 Phase Noise 16 　　 2.3.1 Noise Source 16 　 　2.3.2 Phase Noise Model 18 　 　2.3.3 Relation between Phase Noise and Jitter 23 Chapter 3 VCO Architectures 25 3.1 Overview 26 3.2 Basic LC-Tank VCO 27 3.2.1 Filter LC-tank VCO 28 3.2.2 Switched-bias VCO 28 3.2.3 Multi-Phase Generation 29 3.3 Active-Coupling VCO 31 3.4 Ring Oscillator 34 3.4.1 Resistor Load 34 3.4.2 Transistor Load 35 3.4.3 Inductive Load 35 3.5 Traveling Wave VCO 37 3.5.1 Distributed VCO 37 3.5.2 Rotary-Traveling-Wave VCO 39 Chapter 4 A 9-GHz Quadrature-phase VCO 41 4.1 Motivation 41 4.2 Circuit Design 42 4.2.1 Design of the Cross-Coupled VCO 42 4.2.2 Quadrature-Phase VCO with Active Coupling Pair 44 4.3 Phase Error Verification 45 4.3.1 The Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) Module 45 4.3.2 The Effects of Different Kinds of Phase Errors 46 4.4 Experimental Results 49 4.4.1 Die Photo 49 4.4.2 Measurement Setup 49 4.4.3 Measurement Results 51 4.5 Conclusions 56 Chapter 5 A 15-GHz/30-GHz Dual-Band Multi-Phase VCO 57 5.1 Motivation 57 5.2 Circuit Design 60 5.2.1 The Dual-Band Multi-Phase VCO 60 5.2.2 The Built-In-Self-Test (BIST) Module 61 5.3 Experimental Results 64 5.3.1 Die Photo 64 5.3.2 Measurement Setup 64 5.3.3 Measurement Results 66 5.4 Conclusions 71 Chapter 6 A 43-GHz Muilti-Phase VCO 73 6.1 Motivation 73 6.2 Introduction 75 6.3 Circuit Design 76 6.4 Simulation Results 82 6.4.1 Traveling Path 82 6.4.2 Compensation Inductor 82 6.4.3 Output Matching 83 6.4.4 DC Path 84 6.5 Measurement Considerations 88 6.5.1 Layout 88 6.5.2 Measurement Setup 89 6.6 Conclusions 90 Conclusions 91 Bibliography 933305683 bytesapplication/pdfen-US雙頻多相位壓控震盪器相位雜訊相位誤差dual-bandmulti-phasevoltage-controlled oscillatorphase noisephase errorthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/57620/1/ntu-94-R92943096-1.pdf
