Abstract
A phase synchronous multiple LC tank oscillator includes a plurality of oscillator stages that are configured to oscillate synchronously. The phase of each of the plurality of oscillator stages is substantially the same and the plurality of oscillators are inductively coupled. The synchronous oscillation is substantially caused by magnetic coupling. The oscillator stages may be electrically coupled during a first time period and the electrical coupling and disconnected or reduced during a second time period.
