1 Something More We Should Know About VCOs Name: Yung-Chung Lo Advisor: Dr. Jose Silva-Martinez AMSC-TAMU 1
2 Outline Noise Analysis and Models of VCOs Injection Locking Techniques Quadrature VCOs AMSC-TAMU 2
3 The First Oscillator Phase Noise Model Leeson Model (1966) Leeson Model (LTI): AMSC-TAMU 3
4 Harjimiri s Model (T. H. Lee) Injection at Peak (amplitude noise only) Injection at Zero Crossing (maximum phase noise) AMSC-TAMU 4
5 Limit-cycle Limit-cycle due to amplitude restoring mechanism Can impulse response model deal with the Flicker noise? AMSC-TAMU 5
6 ISF Model The phase variation due to injecting noise can be modeled as: The function, Γ(x), is the time-varying proportionality factor and called the impulse sensitivity function. The phase shift is assumed linear to injection charge. ISF has the same oscillation period T of the oscillator itself. The unity phase impulse response can be written as: AMSC-TAMU 6
7 Typical ISF Example The ISF can be estimated analytically or calculated from simulation. The ISF reaches peak during zero crossing and zero at peak. AMSC-TAMU 7
8 General Response For any deterministic injection charge, the excess phase can be calculated using superposition integral. Because ISF is periodic, AMSC-TAMU 8
9 The Complete Process and System The conversion from current to phase The equivalent system for ISF decomposition AMSC-TAMU 9
10 The Conversion of Tones All noise around the harmonic frequencies and DC contribute to the phase noise. Flicker noise (1/f) contribute the 1/f 3 region. AMSC-TAMU 10
11 Summary of ISF Good insight. Applicable in both LC and ring-based oscillators. Reasonable accuracy using SPICE-like transient simulator (tedious work). Can not address flicker noise. Can not use for quadrature VCOs. No sufficient physical meanings. Tedious to design. AMSC-TAMU 11
12 Hegazi s Model (A. Abidi) How noise source contributes to the phase noise? The physical meanings? AMSC-TAMU 12
13 Tail Current Noise Only the noise located at even harmonics will produce the phase noise. AMSC-TAMU 13
14 Differential Pair Noise If the output impedance of current source is infinite, only the noise of diff-pair around odd harmonics contribute to phase noise. AMSC-TAMU 14
15 Loading in Current-Biased Oscillator Role of the current source. AMSC-TAMU 15
16 Noise Filtering in Oscillator Only thermal noise in the current source transistor around 2 nd harmonic of the oscillation cause phase noise. A high impedance at the tail is only required at the 2 nd harmonic to stop the differential pair FETs in triode from loading the resonator. AMSC-TAMU 16
17 Noise Filtering in Oscillator Tail-biased VCO with noise filtering. AMSC-TAMU 17
18 Noise Filtering in Oscillator Top-biased & voltage-biased VCO with noise filtering AMSC-TAMU 18
19 Tail Current-Shaping to Improve Phase Noise AMSC-TAMU 19
20 Tail Current-Shaping to Improve Phase Noise VCO1 VCO2 (no shaping technique) (shaping technique) AMSC-TAMU 20
21 Outline Noise Analysis and Models of VCOs Injection-locked Techniques Quadrature VCOs AMSC-TAMU 21
22 VCO Pulling and Pushing Pulling Injection Pulling: Oscillation frequency varies due to the noise frequency ex: PA output couples to local oscillator, large interference couples from LNA to VCO through mixer Load Pulling Oscillation frequency changes as the loading changes Add buffer or reduce parasitics AMSC-TAMU 22
23 VCO Pulling and Pushing Pushing Oscillation frequency changes as the supply level changes because the capacitance of varactor and the drain capacitance of MOS can be varied with the DC bias conditions Add regulator AMSC-TAMU 23
24 Injection Locking Technique Injection Locking Whe the injection frequency is close to the oscillation frequency and the injection signal is large enough, the oscillation frequency shifts toward the injection frequency. AMSC-TAMU 24
25 Injection-locked Frequency Divider Design concept of injection-locked oscillator (ILO) F in nf in + mfout LPF/BPF F out Unwanted harmonics may exist. Self-coupling may produce unwanted tones too. Injection-locked frequency dividers (ILFD) feature lower power consumption and more excellent noise performance than digital dividers. AMSC-TAMU 25
26 LC INFDs Advantage: Better noise performance (LC filtering) Low power consumption Very high operation frequency (~ fmax) Disadvantage: Smaller locking range (LC limited) Unwanted harmonics Large silicon area due to L and C Very difficult to provide multiple phases or large divisor number in one LC oscillator stage (area penalty) Difficult to find an excellent source to inject signal AMSC-TAMU 26
27 Ring-Oscillator-Based ILFDs Advantage: Smaller area Wide locking range Small power consumption Disadvantage: Inferior phase noise to LC ILFDs (Still decent) Worse unwanted harmonics (No LC resonant filtering) False locking AMSC-TAMU 27
28 Injection-Locked Frequency Divider (ILFD) with interpolated phases 3-stage ring oscillator Injected clock at 3 time the output frequency 3 clock phases are interpolated Transitions are dictated by Vin,j Excellent phase noise performance 28
29 29 Application(3) Phase Tuning Circuit Control Vbp and Vbn to change the free-running frequency vary Δϕ Phase tuning/alignment in high-speed links
30 Complementary Injection-Locked Frequency Divider (CILFD) Large odd-modulus(101) Only dynamic power consumption 100% frequency locking range Differential input/output 50% duty cycle Small area Auxiliary Inverter F in ( /(2n+1) ) F in ( 0 ) F in ( (2n)/(2n+1) ) F in ( (2n)/(2n+1) ) (2n+1)-stage F in ( /(2n+1) ) F in ( 180 ) (2n+1)-stage (2n+1) F in ( ø + 0 ) (2n+1) F in ( ø ) 30
31 Complementary Injection Scheme Complementary injection reinforces the injection strength to widen the frequency locking range. Only when the inverter transits state the tail transistors inject current. Independent tail injection to each stage avoids the interference between each stage. Injection Signal Ring-oscillator output Tail NMOS injection current Tail PMOS injection current 31
32 Power Consumption and Phase Noise Power consumption: 2 1 One ring-oscillator stage: PStage CVDD f Inj 2n 1 2 CILFD: PStage 2CVDD f Inj The power consumption is independent to the division modulus (# of ring-oscillator stage). Phase noise: The phase noise of CILFD is mainly determined by the phase noise of injection signal.
