Abstract
A voltage-controlled oscillator includes a voltage-current converter, a first ring oscillator and a second ring oscillator. The voltage-current converter includes a first transistor for receiving a first control voltage at its gate terminal, a second transistor for receiving a second control voltage at its gate terminal, a third transistor connected to the first transistor in series and has a gate terminal connected to a drain terminal of the first transistor, a fourth transistor connected to the second transistor in series and has a gate terminal connected to a drain terminal of the second transistor, a resistor connected to a source terminal of the first transistor and a source terminal of the second transistor, a fifth transistor having a gate terminal connected to the drain terminal of the first transistor, and a sixth transistor having a gate terminal connected to the drain terminal of the second transistor.
