Abstract
In this article, we present a low phase noise (PN) mm-wave quadrature digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) exploiting transformers for class-F operation and harmonic extraction. A third transformer coil is added for the inter-core coupling with the source terminals of the switching transistors. We identify that the inter-core coupling in quadrature oscillators causes an asymmetric flicker noise current, thus degrading flicker PN. As a remedy, we propose a deliberate drain-to-gate phase shift of t
