A 2.2 GHz, 0.57 V voltage controlled oscillator is designed and simulated using Cadence SpectreRF 0.18-um CMOS process. The topology of the circuit makes use of two parallel LC resonators with four negative differential resistance transistors. At supply voltage of 0.57 V, the oscillator draws a curr...
