    摘要: Provided is a voltage controlled oscillator to which a switching bias technique is applied so as to lower flicker noise of a bias circuit and enhance phase noise characteristics, thereby reducing the overall chip area to make it possible to achieve integration. A common mode voltage applied to the bias circuit is negatively fed back to an oscillation waveform. Therefore, it is possible to stabilize the magnitude of the oscillation waveform of the voltage controlled oscillator with respect to a change in an external condition.
