Device Shot Noise and Saturation Effects on Oscillator Phase Noise

Oscillator phase noise is an important factor in designing radio frequency (RF) communications hardware. Phase noise directly contributes to adjacent-channel interference and an increase in bit error rate (BER). <p> Understanding the operation of an oscillator can help with the oscillator des...
