Abstract :
The paper presents an analysis of the injection locking phenomenon in CMOS ring oscillators. Adler´s equation in injection locking is proved for a three-stage ring oscillator and the behavior of this kind of oscillator in the locked condition with respect to phase noise and jitter reduction has been analyzed.
