Voltage controlled oscillator is one of the fundamental building blocks in the frequency synthesizer architecture. A 4.224-GHz CMOS complementary cross-coupled LC-VCO is designed for multi-band OFDM (MB-OFDM) ultra-wideband (UWB) application. The tuning range of the VCO is from 3.77-GHz to 4.27-GHz...
