Abstract

Disclosed is a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) capable of providing an effective high VCO gain against slow change of an input voltage caused by the variation of manufacturing processes, temperature, voltage, etc. and providing an effective low VCO gain against rapid change of the input voltage for reducing jitter. The VCO includes: an input circuit generating an input current according to an input voltage; a first current supply circuit generating a first output current according to the input current; a second current supply circuit generating a second output current according to the input current; a filter coupled to the input circuit and the second current supply circuit and configured to slow down the influence caused by the variation of the input current on the second current supply circuit; and an oscillating circuit generating an output clock according to the first output current and the second output current.
