Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like or similar reference numerals refer to like or similar elements or elements having like or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the utility model. On the contrary, the embodiments of the utility model include all alternatives, modifications and equivalents as may be included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
The current 5G high-speed mobile Internet age has stringent requirements on phase noise, power consumption and layout area of a wireless communication system. The oscillating circuit, as an important component in a wireless communication system, determines the phase noise level of the overall communication system. It is therefore important how to design a low power consumption and low noise oscillating circuit at high frequencies.
At present, the magnitude of the phase noise is proportional to the inductance value and inversely proportional to the quality factor value of the inductance. Therefore, the inductance in the oscillating circuit needs to be designed in a direction of a smaller inductance and a higher quality factor. The related art mostly reduces the inductance value by reducing the area of the inductor, thereby meeting the requirement of improving the phase noise, but reducing the area of the inductor can deteriorate the quality factor of the inductor. Meanwhile, under the condition of double resonant frequency, current can flow to the ground from the differential pair tube, so that the quality factor of the inductor is reduced, phase noise is deteriorated, the efficiency of the oscillating circuit for converting direct current into first-order resonant frequency current is low, and power consumption is high.
In order to solve the problems in the related art, the present disclosure provides an oscillating circuit, in which a main inductor includes four single-turn inductors connected in parallel, so as to achieve the effects of reducing power consumption and improving phase noise without affecting the quality factor of the inductor. Meanwhile, the common mode resonant circuit is connected to the power supply end and the ground end to provide high impedance at double resonant frequency, meanwhile, 2 times frequency multiplication current from the power supply to the first type transistor and the second type transistor to the ground is restrained, and the efficiency of converting direct current (DC current) into first-order resonant frequency current is improved, so that the power consumption is further reduced, and the phase noise is effectively improved.
The resonant circuit and the electronic device provided by the disclosure can be applied to the field of radio frequency communication, and in particular, can also be applied to inductance design of an LC-VCO (Inductor and Capacitor based Voltage Controlled Oscillator, inductance capacitance type voltage-controlled oscillator) in a PLL (Phase-Locked Loops) in a 5G NR radio frequency chip. In addition, the oscillating circuit and the electronic device in the disclosure can also be used in the field of radio frequency chip design such as WIFI, bluetooth, GPS and the like, and are not limited in the embodiments of the disclosure.
One specific application scenario shown in fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a radio frequency transceiver. Referring to fig. 1, a radio frequency transceiver is generally composed of a transceiving antenna, a low noise amplifier, a mixer, a voltage controlled oscillator, a power amplifier, and a modulator/demodulator. When the receiving antenna receives electromagnetic waves, it passes the signal to a low noise amplifier for amplification and converts it to a lower frequency signal by a mixer. This signal is then fed into a voltage controlled oscillator to generate a lower intermediate frequency signal, which is then fed into a demodulator to convert it into a digital signal, completing the decoding of the data.
For the transmission process, the digital signal is first modulated and fed into a power amplifier for transmission to the receiving end via a radio frequency antenna. During transmission, the radio frequency transceiver plays a key role in converting digital signals into electromagnetic signals and modulating them.
The inductances mentioned in this disclosure are used in the oscillating circuit of a voltage controlled oscillator. Voltage controlled oscillators are used in radio frequency transceivers to generate high frequency signals whose frequency is adjusted by varying the value of the input voltage. In a phase-locked loop in a radio frequency transceiver, the phase-locked loop detects the phase difference between an input signal and an output signal, converts the detected phase difference signal into a voltage signal through a phase discriminator, outputs the voltage signal, filters the voltage signal through a low-pass filter to form a control voltage of the voltage-controlled oscillator, controls the frequency of the output signal of the oscillator, and feeds back the frequency and the phase of the output signal of the oscillator to the phase discriminator through a feedback path. Finally, the frequency and the phase of the voltage-controlled oscillator are kept in a definite relation with the input signal.
The present utility model will be described in detail with reference to specific examples.

One type of primary inductor is shown in fig. 3 as a schematic diagram of a flower-type inductor. With reference to fig. 3, the current flow in the flower-shaped inductor is four circles, namely 1,2,3 and 4, so that the overall flower-shaped inductor can be equivalent to the parallel connection of four single-circle inductors. The quality factor of the flower-shaped inductor is equivalent to that of the single-turn inductor, but the inductance value of the flower-shaped inductor is one fourth of that of the single-turn inductor, so that the main inductor in the present disclosure adopts the structure of the flower-shaped inductor, and the requirement of low inductance value and high quality factor can be realized, thereby achieving the effects of reducing power consumption and improving phase noise under the condition that the quality factor of the main inductor is not influenced in the present disclosure.
