---|---|---|
An oscillator design technique for low-power and low-voltage applications is presented. The circuit is based on the classical common-gate Colpitts oscillator with additional positive feedback provided by an inductive gate degeneration. This technique decreases the required transconductance to start-up oscillations, which makes possible to reduce the minimum supply voltage, and hence the power consumption. A prototype was designed in a standard 0.13 mu m CMOS process using a zero-threshold transistor. The post-layout simulation results show an oscillation frequency of 2.12 GHz, with a power consumption of 4 mu W under a 40-mV supply voltage. |
