This paper discusses the design and fabrication of a high-frequency wide-range frequency synthesizer based on a phase locked loop (PLL), varactorless LC-type voltage-controlled oscillator, and push–push frequency doubler. In addition, a high-speed programmable divider using multiphase selection is employed for channel switching. The proposed circuits were fabricated in a standard 90-nm CMOS process with a chip area of 0.8mm×1.1mm. The PLL dissipated 60mW when the supply was 1.2V. The measured phase noise of the frequency synthesizer at a frequency of 17.64GHz and offset of 1MHz was −97dBc/Hz. |
