    Abstract: A voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) is disclosed that includes an inductor-capacitor (LC) tank coupled with a first voltage supply node, a pair of cross-coupled transistors that are coupled with the LC tank and coupled with each other at a tail node, and a high-frequency current return path to the first voltage supply node. The high-frequency return path includes a first decoupling capacitor coupled with the first voltage supply node and a second voltage supply node, and a first inductor coupled with the tail node and the second voltage supply node. The first inductor is formed as a first conductive trace and has a quality factor (Q) value of 25 or greater.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for detecting temperature in an electro-optical circuit (e.g., an electro-optical transceiver). According to an embodiment, an electro-optical circuit includes a photonic integrated circuit and an electronic integrated circuit. The photonic integrated circuit includes an optical component and a first resistor positioned by the optical component. The electronic integrated circuit determines a temperature for the optical component based on a first resistance of the first resistor.
