Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 電子研究所 === 82 === This thesis deals with the design and implementation of a high
speed CMOS frequency synthesizer. Frequency synthesizers are
widely used in many fields such as wireless communication
systems, control circuit, electronic synthesizer, etc. The
desired range of operation frequency is from 300MHz to 400MHz.
We use 0.8um double-poly double-metal CMOS process, provided by
Chip Implementation Center, to design this chip. From the
simulated results, we can get a linear region of the voltage
controlled oscillator from 300MHz to 400MHz. It will determine
the operation frequency of this frequency synthesizer. In order
to simplify our design, the programmable counter is modified.
But we will focus on the programmable counter in the later
chapter to promote the performance. In our measurement, the
supply voltage should be descreased to 3 V. We can compare the
simulated result with measured result. At last, we will modify
the chip to get higher performance.
