This paper presents a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with automatic amplitude control (AAC) loop. The proposed AAC VCO employs a hybrid type AAC loop and targets the Industrial, Scientific and Medical (ISM) band applications. The proposed AAC loop can also prevent the AAC from generating extra...
