An enhanced swing differential Colpitts VCO (ESDC-VCO) dramatically improves
the swing of a Colpitts VCO by allowing the signal to swing below ground and above the
supply voltage. Fabricated in a 1P8M 0.13 um CMOS process, the ESDC-VCO operates
at 4.9GHz with a 0.475-V supply and consumes 2.7mW. The measured...
