A dual-tuned active-inductor-based LC-VCO and its application in a wideband PLL

A wideband phase-locked loop (PLL) allows chip designers to use a single PLL for multiple communication standards. In wireline transceivers, such a wideband PLL can be incorporated as a part of a programmable (software-defined) de-serializer, or replace several PLLs for multiple standards if the ban...
