Abstract :
The paper proposes a novel implementation of a LC oscillator using an active inductor. The advantages of the method are discussed. The simulations prove the performance of the oscillator with an active inductor. The two phase oscillator based on two simulated CMOS inductors structure consists of a balanced differential CMOS circuit with negative intrinsic resistance and was simulated in a 0.18 μm CMOS technology.
