  • Abstract
    We report a 0.15 /spl mu/m p-HEMT dual frequency VCO. The dual frequencies are achieved using a switched-resonator topology. Large devices can be used for switching, as their parasitic capacitance is absorbed into the resonator. The phase noise at 1 MHz offset was -101 dBc and -92 dBc at 10.6 and 16.3 GHz respectively.
