“…Since the first observation of the injection locking phenomenon [58] - [63], it has been widely utilized in various areas, such as frequency synthesizers, clock distribution and clock recovery. Before discussing the ideal pulse, an ideal square wave is introduced first to demonstrate the relation between different sub-harmonics and output power.…”

“…As shown in Fig. 3.6 [63], the relationship between duty cycle and power of different harmonics can be derived. The signal power deviation of the higher order harmonics, such as 7 th harmonic is generally more sensitive to the pulse width compared to lower harmonics, as seen with the 3 rd and 5 th harmonics for instance.…”

This thesis proposes a novel, all synthesized, Injection Locked Ring Oscillator (ILRO). It employs a digitally tunable oscillator and a pulse injection locking technique. The frequency tuning range of the free running oscillator is from 210 MHz to 1.8 GHz with a 1.1 volt power supply. The tuning range from 1.0 to 1.8 GHz can be achieved with 215 tuning steps with a maximum step size of 11.2 MHz, that is well within the worst case 75MHz (3rd sub-harmonic) and 32 MHz (9 th sub-harmonic) locking range of the oscillator.The design occupies 127.5 um by 31.5 um of chip area and is implemented in TSMC's 65nm CMOS technology. For 3rd harmonic injection locking, the ILRO's RMS jitter is 192.7 fs (1 KHz to 40 MHz) with a phase noise of -130.9 dBc/Hz at 1 MHz offset from the 1.62GHz carrier while consuming 7.15 mW of power.iii
