Abstract

A design procedure which emphasizes the tuning linearity of a varactor-tuned oscillator (VTO) is proposed. With the help of a spreadsheet program, a BSL and the deviation of an actual tuning curve from a BSL can be calculated. This procedure enables a designer to evaluate the tuning linearity prior to actual circuit design, and thus helps to select the optimum varactor.
