Abstract

See full text

A wide tuning range oscillator system uses multiple active cores with cross-coupled transistors and multiple tapped inductors having windings that can be connected to circuit nodes. These active cores are connected to a pair of symmetric tapping points and are switched ON/OFF by biasing elements. Biasing schemes and the topology of the individual cross-coupled cores may be different from each other. The tapping points are symmetrically arranged around the center point of the inductor. One or more of the active cores may be enabled for tuning the center frequency of the oscillator system.
