This paper presents a wideband LC PLL designed for multi-protocol serial link applications. Dual LC voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) cores are used to cover a wide frequency range while keeping a high Q factor of the LC tank, and multi-ratio dividers are used to satisfy the multi-protocol requirements. Each LC VCO adopts a 4-bit switch capacitor to increase the frequency tuning range and decrease the VCO gain. Meanwhile, the phase frequency detector (PFD), charge pump, and loop filter (LPF) are fully differential to suppress the ground and substrate noise. The PLL is implemented in SMIC 40nm CMOS technology and covers an area of 0.32mm 2 . The two VCOs' free running phase noise at 1MHz are -108.1dBc/Hz and -105.7dBc/Hz respectively. The whole power of the PLL under 1.1V supply is 19.52mW, comprising 4.56mW of the VCO and 14.96mW of the other parts.
