摘要: CMOS technology scaling opens up the possibility of designing variable capacitors based on a metal oxide semiconductor structure with improved tuning range and quality factor. This is due to an increase in capacitance reduction parasitic resistance. A prototype metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor 3.1 pF nominal value has been realized 0.35-/spl mu/m standard process. factor two change achieved for 2-V variation controlling voltage. The varactor Q ranges from 17 35, at 1.8 GHz.
