The article discusses the use of low-power voltage-controlled-oscillator (VCO) circuitry with high-frequency silicon CMOS semiconductor technology to provide effective signal generation for a large range of wireless applications. By incorporating capacitive feedback and forward-body-bias (FBB) techniques in a cross-coupled CMOS VCO approach, improvements in output swing and phase noise can be achieved.
