Abstract:
An analysis of the MOS Colpitts oscillator is presented that includes MOSFET operation in the cutoff linear, and saturation regions of operation. The steady-state output voltages calculated from this analysis are in excellent agreement with SPICE3 simulations for a wide range of circuit parameters. An application of this analysis to the synthesis of a Colpitts oscillator design is also provided.
