Abstruci -This paper presents a new 6.5GHz oscillator designed in a 0.5pm Silicon'On Sapphire CMOS technology. This new structure is based on the principle of frequency multiplication integrated in the same stage than the generator+ The layout particularities of it are presented in the case of a 8.5GHz fully integrated oscillator in the previous SOS technology that has an fT of 35GHz. Given measurements results prove the functionality of our design.
Every high frequency circuits need inductors for proper work. This is more and more true w i t h new radio-frequency MOS transistors systems. But with t h e increase in frequency, lower inductors are required and MOS transistors offer less gain, Radio-frequency circuits i n MOS technology are also obedient to the layout of low inductance high quality factor inductors.It has been shown that t h e y can be better realized by microstrips. However, classical MOS digital technologies have no back ground plane under the substrate. This article analyzes the influence of parasitic back ground planes i n the case of an often used coplanar solution : coplanar waveguide.
