Abstract

See full text

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to oscillators including methods of operating the same, for example for use in radio frequency circuits. In an embodiment, an oscillator has cross-coupled transistors connected between a resonant circuit and a tail circuit. The resonant circuit and tail circuit have respective supply connections for powering the oscillator with an external power supply and the cross-coupled transistors have a bias circuit coupled to respective gates of the cross-coupled transistors and arranged to bias said transistors in an active region of operation. The tail circuit has a current source, a tail capacitor and a tail resistor coupled between a common node of the cross-coupled transistors and the supply connection of the tail circuit.
