Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure may provide a circuit comprising a tank circuit. The tank circuit may include an inductor having a pair of terminals, a first pair of transistors, and a first pair of capacitors. Each transistor may be coupled between a respective terminal of the inductor and a reference voltage along a source-to-drain path of the transistor. Each capacitor may be provided in a signal path between an inductor terminal coupled to a respective first transistor in the first pair and a gate of a second transistor in the first pair.
