Abstract

A voltage-controlled ring oscillator based on feedback derived from a weighted sum of two phases of an oscillation is described. A prototype fabricated in 1- mu m CMOS attains a maximum frequency of 320 MHz, with a controllable frequency range of 100 MHz. An almost sinusoidal waveform appears at the output across this range of frequencies.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
