My name is Sharad, I am a student. I am designing a Voltage Controlled oscillator with current mirror in Virtuoso tool. I am unable to do the phase noise calculations. Please guide me with the steps to perform the phase noise analyses.

    Hi Sharad,

     

    Please refer to a VCO design using SpectreRF appnote located in rfworkshop.tar.gz file in <mmsim_installation_path>/tools/spectre/examples/SpectreRF_workshop directory in the MMSIM installation path.

    You can also refer to SpectreRF User Guide in the installation using cdnshelp.

    You can search through the Cadence Online Support website - http://support.cadence.com for more material around this topic.

     

    With Regards,

    Ashish
