Low-Voltage CMOS RF Frequency Synthesizers

This book provides the reader with architectures and design techniques to enable CMOS frequency synthesizers to operate at low-supply voltage at high-frequency with good phase noise and low power consumption. In addition to updating the reader on many of these techniques in depth, this book will also introduce useful guidelines and step-by-step procedure on behaviour simulations of frequency synthesizers. Finally, four successfully demonstrated prototypes will be elaborated to illustrate potential applications of the architectures and design techniques described. For engineers, managers and researchers working in RFIC design for wireless applications.
