Abstract

Phase-locked loop circuitry generates an output signal based on transformer based voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) circuitry. The VCO circuitry includes upper band circuitry including first oscillation circuitry, a first harmonic filter circuitry coupled to the first oscillation circuitry, and a first selection transistor coupled to the first harmonic filter circuitry and a current source. The first harmonic filter circuitry filters the output signal. The lower band circuitry includes second oscillation circuitry, a second harmonic filter circuitry coupled to the second oscillation circuitry, and a second selection transistor coupled to the second harmonic filter circuitry and the current source. The second harmonic filter circuitry filters the output signal.
