<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide techniques which allow use of option conductors to connect components in an oscillator circuit. <P>SOLUTION: An oscillator circuit 200 includes transistors that are cross-coupled through routing conductors in a first conductive layer. The oscillator circuit also includes varactors 203 to 206, capacitors 221 to 226, and option conductors 207, 208, and 212 to 216 in a second conductive layer. The option conductors each form at least a portion of a connection between one of the transistors and one of a capacitor and a varactor. The oscillator circuit may further include an inductor coupled to one of a plurality of first transistors through the routing conductors in the first conductive layer, and a second option conductor in the second conductive layer that forms a first portion of the inductor. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
