  • Abstract
    A phase noise measurement bench is integrated on a 3.6 mm2 silicon chip. The bench includes a splitter with quadrature outputs, a phase detector, a low noise baseband amplifier and, if necessary, a synthesized source. Applications to the characterization of frequency sources and BAW resonators are discussed.
