The following tutorial assumes that you have a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) already designed and you now wish to find various performance criteria such as phase noise, tuning range, etc.

Phase Noise

  • Make sure that your tuning voltage is set such that your VCO oscillates at the desired frequency.
