    Abstract: A digitally-controlled oscillator (DCO) includes a first capacitor array and a second capacitor array responsive to an integer part and a fractional part of a digital control word, respectively. The mismatch measurement of the DCO includes a first settling phase and a second settling phase. In the first settling phase, the first capacitor array is fixed to have one capacitive value, and the second capacitor array is adjusted for making the DCO frequency locked to a target value. In the second settling phase, the first capacitor array is fixed to have another capacitive value, and the second capacitor array is adjusted for making the DCO frequency locked to the same target value. The capacitor mismatches are estimated according to characteristic values derived from the digital control word adaptively adjusted in the first setting phase and the second setting phase.

    Abstract: A tunable inductor includes a main wiring and at least one tuning module. The main wiring is arranged to encircle an inductor area of the tunable inductor. In addition, the tuning module is arranged to couple associated nodes of the main wiring. For example, each tuning module of the at least one tuning module includes a first switch positioned within the inductor area, and further includes at least one auxiliary wiring. When the first switch is turned on, the tuning module couples two nodes of the main wiring, where the at least one auxiliary wiring is arranged to couple the two nodes when the first switch is turned on. In particular, a patterned ground plane is arranged to decrease the energy loss of the tunable inductor, and more particularly, to prevent the tunable inductor from suffering energy loss. The patterned ground plane includes some conductive sections forming a W-like shape.
