Re: Best VCO configration

the best configration as far as i know hajimari configration which is two nmos cross coupled , and pmos cross coupled

just it , but u must optimize the w and l of transistors and the tank circuit to achive ur phase noise requirments

wish this help

also someone told me that Hajimiri topology not so great than the ordinary method when u use pmos as a current source
