摘要：
In this brief, a class-F-23 voltage-controlled oscillator(VCO) aimed at achieving low-phase noise (PN) across the tuningrange without manual harmonic tuning is presented. A newhead resonator (HR) based on electric coupling is proposedto expand the common-mode (CM) resonance bandwidth at2nd harmonic (2f(0)) so that the 1/fnoise is suppressed. Theelectric coupling preserves the ability to recover CM resonancebandwidth from manufacture variations. The higher differential-mode (DM) resonance frequency is positioned between 2f(0 )and 3f(0 )to mitigate Groszkowski's frequency shift caused by the DMharmonic current. Implemented in a 65-nm CMOS process witha die area of 0.198 mm2, the VCO exhibits a PN of-122.5 dBc/Hzat a 1-MHz offset from 8 GHz, corresponding to a peak figureof merit (FoM) of 192 dBc/Hz
