Abstract—In the nanometer-scale CMOS technology, the gateoxide thickness has been scaled down to support a higher operating speed under a lower power supply (1xVDD). However, the...
This paper presents a two-stage CMOS differential voltage-controlled ring oscillator (VCO). The VCO is intended to operate as a frequency synthesizer in a PLL to generate local os...
