Transformer based multiple coupled LC tanks for on-chip VCO design and applications

A transformer based multiple coupled LC tanks model for on-chip VCO design is introduced. The merits of adoption multiple coupled LC tanks can be Q factor enhancement for the equivalent LC tank of VCO, low power consumption, better amplitude swing and broad tuning range can be obtained.
