Abstract

The chapter details the design and implementation of a 2 GHz wide tuning range LC-tank digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) in 28 nm CMOS technology. The DCO is designed to operate between 1.25 GHz and 2.5 GHz with a frequency resolution of 10 MHz, enabling dynamic control of processor clock frequency and supply voltage. Key features include the use of digitally controlled capacitor banks for frequency tuning, a symmetrical CMOS LC-tank structure for improved loop gain and phase noise, and a current sink design to ensure stable oscillation across a wide frequency range. Post-layout simulations confirm the DCO's ability to cover the specified frequency range with high resolution and low phase noise, making it a competitive solution in the field of digitally controlled oscillators.
