title = "Low phase noise, FBAR-based voltage controlled oscillator without varactor",
abstract = "Colpitts voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) at 1.1GHz is designed with a film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) as the frequency control element. The oscillator achieves an extremely low phase noise of-115 dBc/Hz at 10kHz offset, which is 19dB better than that of an LC oscillator. Voltage control of the oscillation frequency is obtained by applying a DC voltage on the FBAR, unlike a conventional VCO that uses a PN junction varactor (a significant noise contributor) to vary the oscillation frequency. The frequency tunability of the VCO is approximately -12kHz/V between -5V and + 10V.",
