A 5.4-GHz 0.25-/spl mu/m very-large-scale-integration CMOS synchronous oscillator (SO) is proposed in this paper, which is designed to act as a local oscillator for HiperLAN systems. The advantage of using such an oscillator in a double-loop frequency synthesizer is demonstrated. The design strategy leading to an optimized SO with regards to its synchronization range is described. A test chip is presented, which provides a 150-MHz synchronization range and a -97-dBc/Hz phase noise at 10-kHz offset from the 5-GHz carrier, while consuming only 5 mA from a 2.5-V supply.
