Abstract:
A voltage-controlled oscillator may include an inductor. The inductor may include a first coil coupled to an electronic component. The inductor may include a first coil coupled to the first circuit component, a second coil coupled to the first circuit component via a junction and being in parallel with the first coil, and a shared circuit path coupled to the second circuit component, the first coil, and the second coil, the shared circuit path overlapping the junction. The inductor may be configured to reduce phase noise generated by the electronic component.
