Abstract
Frequency dependent properties of accumulation-mode MOS varactors, which are key elements in many RF circuits, are dominated by Non-Quasi-Static (NQS) effects in the carrier transport. The circuit performances containing MOS varactors can hardly be reproduced without considering the NQS effect in MOS-varactor models. For the LC-VCO circuit as an example it is verified that frequency-tuning range and oscillation amplitude can be overestimated by over 20% and more than a factor 2, respectively, without inclusion of the NQS effect.
