Large-signal analysis of MOS varactors in CMOS -Gm LC VCOs.

MOS varactors are used extensively as tunable elements in the tank circuits of RF voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs) based on submicrometer CMOS technologies. MOS varactor topologies include conventional D = S = B connected, inversion-mode (I-MOS), and accumulation-mode (A-MOS) structures. When i...
