Q2. What is the way to synchronize an oscillator with an incident signal?
under common mode excitation, the transformer acts as a short circuit, thus the injected signal is found without distortion at the varactors’ terminals.
Q3. What is the purpose of the RFIC?
Electromagnetic simulations tools have been used to optimize their geometry in order to achieve good performance in both, common and differential modes of operation.
Q4. What is the simplest example of a second harmonic ILO?
The circuit is a cross pair oscillator, whose resonant tank consists of an inverter transformer (inductive element) and a pair of varactors.
Q5. What is the name of the ensemble?
When the injected signal is close to a harmonic of the oscillator free running frequency, the ensemble is known as a super-harmonic ILO [5].
Q6. What is the fundamental current of the varactor diodes?
By defining angle , and after some trigonometric calculations, the fundamental current , passing through the varactor diodes can be expressed as(2)where and are the capacitance of the varactors and its derivative versus the applied voltage, respectively, both at the bias point .
Q7. What is the phase shift of the reference circuit?
5. Finally, particularly interesting is the existence of a range of phase/bias values showing a nearly linear behavior, which will allow direct analogue phase modulation.
Q8. What is the difference between the injected and the applied signal?
due to the non linear behavior of the stored charge versus applied voltage, the injected signal at frequency mixes with the oscillator signal at frequency close to .
