Abstract

This paper discusses necessity of power-waves formulation to extend voltage-current oriented approaches based on linear concepts such as admittance/impedance operators and transfer-function representations. Importance of multi-physics methodologies, throughout power-waves formulation, for the analysis and design of crystal oscillators is discussed. Interpretation of bifurcation modes in differential cross-coupled VCO architectures in terms of gyrator-like behavior, is proposed. Impact of amplitude level control (ALC) on large-signal phase noise performances is underlined showing necessity of robust control analysis approach relative to power-energy considerations.
