Abstract:

A voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is disclosed. The VCO includes an amplifier that receives a control signal and a feedback signal and generates an amplified output signal based on the difference between the control signal and the feedback signal. The VCO also includes circuitry to generate an oscillating output signal based on the amplifier output signal. Additionally, the VCO includes a feedback amplifier that generates the feedback signal based on the output of the amplifier. The feedback amplifier includes a first resistor connected in parallel with a second resistor, the second resistor having an adjustable resistance.
