Abstract :
A new tuning system is described that reduces the phase noise of fully integrated, low tuning voltage VCOs. Zero-IF receivers employing this tuning system architecture do not suffer from typical zero-IF problems. It enables a better RF performance, a robust receiver design and an easier RF application.
