Abstract :
This paper presents a coupled oscillator configured with multiple-input differential buffers. Theoretical analysis and simulated results indicate the advantage of low timing-jitter. Furthermore, we also explore the influence of thermal noise in frequency and time domains. By employing linear noise models, we also derive phase noise performance for the proposed coupled oscillators.
