Abstract :
Nanomagnetic oscillator using giant magnetoresistance seems to be candidates for the implementation of low silicon area good close-in phase noise RF oscillators. One of the big issue remains in the weak emitted power. Injection Locked Oscillator could be a solution in order to exploit the behavior of such devices.
