An LC voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) is an electronic circuit that generates an oscillating output voltage whose frequency can be controlled by an applied voltage. It utilizes inductors (L) and ...

Many applications call for wide-range-tunable LC oscillators that can deliver a nearly constant-frequency, nearly harmonic-free output even when the circuit's output load changes. From a design ...

We wish that all the beautiful animations that are available today to understand math and electronics had been around when we were in school. Nonetheless, they are there for today’s students and ...

Abstract: This tutorial will go through the fundamentals of LC oscillator and LC VCO design, such as basic phase-noise theory, design for low power, low phase noise and, large tuning range (including ...

Figure 1: The system and the operation principles. We have carried out two types of measurement. In the first, a response analysis, the LC tank circuit is driven near-resonantly by a low-frequency ...
