Abstract

Millimeter wave technology Phase noise Radiofrequency integrated circuits Silicon Switches Voltage-controlled oscillators
Higher loss of commercial silicon substrate, which has the substrate resistivity of about 10Ω · Cm, is always a headache for the IC designer. We proposed a generalized multiple coupled tanks topology, which can reduce the substrate loss and enhance the circuit performance. The general concept, analysis and circuit examples are presented in this paper for the demonstration and verification.
