<strong>Exc</strong>. 3: Measuring Zin<br />

In pierce.i, a CMOS Pierce oscillator is characterized<br />

by driving it by a 1-tone test current source and measuring<br />

<strong>the</strong> voltage that developes across port XOUT-XIN.<br />

Oscillation criteria is that Zamp(Amp) = -Zresonator(f),<br />

so<br />

Find<br />

• excact oscillation amplitude if Re(Zreson) = 18 ohm.<br />

• find Im(Zamp) at that point and note that it will pull<br />

<strong>the</strong> resonance frequency.<br />

Note that due to large RB <strong>the</strong> circuit settles slowly, and<br />

similar amplitude sweep using transient analysis would<br />

be very slow.<br />

<strong>Exc</strong>. 4: Measuring IIP3<br />

In mtanhiip3.i, both conventional and multi-tanh differential<br />

pair are measured using a 2-tone input signal.<br />

The figures are in Chapter 6, when driven from 50 differential<br />

source.<br />

• Run <strong>the</strong> same simulations when driven from 500<br />

ohms<br />
