Abstract: Phase-locked loop circuitry generates an output signal based on transformer based voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) circuitry. The VCO circuitry includes upper band circuitry including first oscillation circuitry, a first harmonic filter circuitry coupled to the first oscillation circuitry, and a first selection transistor coupled to the first harmonic filter circuitry and a current source. The first harmonic filter circuitry filters the output signal. The lower band circuitry includes second oscillation circuitry, a second harmonic filter circuitry coupled to the second oscillation circuitry, and a second selection transistor coupled to the second harmonic filter circuitry and the current source. The second harmonic filter circuitry filters the output signal.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to automatically generating a data structure representation of an on-chip inductive-capacitive (LC) tank circuit by determining parasitic inductances in each of the segments of conductive paths that connect a main inductor to one or more selectable VCO components such as capacitors and varactors, for example. In an illustrative example, one or more of the selectable VCO components may be arranged, when selected, to form a parallel resonant LC tank with the main inductor. A method may include defining nodes ai terminating each of the segments along the conductive paths between the main inductor terminals and a drive circuit. By modelling the paths as multi-port inductors and transformers, resonant frequency of the VCO may be more accurately predicted by simulation.
