a design for a 1 GHz multi-- band mixed--signal VCO is proposed. The VCO is use Analog to Digital Convertor to adjust the current of the VCO delay cells
so as to achieved multi frequency band. The simulation results presented that the VCO voltage adjustment range is 1V to 2V
and output frequency range is 823.3 MHz to 1. 061 GHz with gain of only 36.6 MHz/V. The novel VCO has a wide frequency range and also keep a very low gain
