Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) that is configurable (e.g., in a dynamic manner) in multiple modes of operation (e.g., low/high-band modes). The VCO may include a resonant circuit coupled to a plurality of switches that may be used to adjust current flow within one or more inductive elements of the resonant circuit. By adjusting the current flow within the inductive elements, an inductance of the resonant circuit may be adjusted, which in turn adjusts a band of the VCO.

Abstract: A digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) modulation apparatus and method provides a wideband phase-modulated signal output. An exemplary modulator circuit uses an oscillator in a phase-locked loop. The circuit receives a wrapped-phase input signal, unwraps the wrapped-phase input signal to generate an unwrapped-phase signal, and differentiates the unwrapped-phase signal. The wrapped-phase input signal and the differentiated unwrapped-phase signal are both injected into a feedback loop of the modulator circuit. The feedback loop may include a multi-modulus frequency divider with a frequency divisor that is temporarily incremented or decremented to cancel out abrupt phase jumps associated with the wrapped-phase to unwrapped-phase conversion.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments provide a system which starts up and shuts down a resonant oscillator circuit. During the start up process, a driving circuit uses a first clock signal to control a first phase output of the resonant oscillator circuit. At the same time, the driving circuit uses a second clock signal to control a second phase output of the resonant oscillator circuit, wherein the first and second clock signals have opposite phases. While the first and second phase outputs are being controlled, the system ramps up an input voltage, which is used to power the resonant oscillator circuit, wherein the ramping takes place across multiple initial oscillation periods. During the shut down process, the system shuts down the resonant oscillator circuit by ramping down the input voltage. After the input voltage has been ramped down, the system clamps the first and second phase outputs to a fixed voltage.
