Abstract

The most important component needed for all wireless and communication systems is the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). In this paper, a four-stage low-power differential ring voltage-controlled oscillator (DRVCO) is presented. The proposed DRVCO is designed using new differential delay cell with dual delay path and Hara inductor to obtain a high frequency VCO with low-power consumption. Results have been obtained at supply voltage of 1.8 V using 0.18 µm TSMC complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process. The tuning range for the proposed VCO varies from 4.6 to 5.5 GHz. This low-power VCO has a power consumption of about 5–10 mW over a control voltage variation of 0.1–1.0 V. The proposed VCO circuit at an offset frequency of 1 MHz achieves a phase noise of −67.9966 dBc/Hz. The figure of merit of proposed circuit is −135 dBc/Hz.
