TL;DR: In this paper, a general design methodology of low-voltage wideband voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) suitable for wireless LAN (WLAN) application is described, and the applications of high-quality passives for the resonator are introduced: a single-loop horseshoe inductor with Q > 20 between 2 and 5 GHz for good phase noise performance; and accumulation MOS (AMOS) varactors with C/sub max/C/sub min/ ratio of 6 to provide wide-band tuning capability at lowvoltage supply.
