Abstract
A quadrature oscillator for generating quadrature and differential double-frequency signals is disclosed. This oscillator is formed by PMOS and NMOS transistors, complementary devices, etc. The circuit is designed by using the differential circuit structures, two LC tanks and the technology of current reuse. As the current pass through most devices and selectively coupling the specific terminals, therefore, it has advantages of less area requirement in circuit design, low power dissipation and low phase noise of output.
