Abstract
A frequency synthesis circuit includes a first inductor coupled to receive a first input signal at an input frequency, and a second inductor coupled to receive second input signal at the input frequency and out-of-phase relative to the first input signal. The circuit has first and second transistors with control terminals coupled to the first and second inductors, respectively. A first resonant tank of an inductor in parallel with a capacitor is coupled between a power supply terminal and the first transistor. A second resonant tank of an inductor in parallel with a capacitor is coupled between the power supply terminal and the second transistor. The first and second resonant tanks are tuned to a selected harmonic of the input frequency. An injection-locked oscillator has inputs coupled to the first and second transistors.
