a. dev=NodalNetwork[MOSFET[{1,0,4,0},Infinity,C1,0,0,0,gm],M
OSFET[{2,0,4,0},Infinity,C1,0,0,0,gm1],MOSFET[{4,0,2,0},Inf
inity,C1,0,0,0,gm1],MOSFET[{3,0,2,0},Infinity,C1,0,0,0,gm],Ca
pacitor[{4,2},C0],Inductor[{4,2},L],Capacitor[{4,2},C0],MOSF

,0,0,gm1],MOSFET[{2,0,1,0},Infinity,C2,0,0,0,gm]];
b. NodalAnalyze[dev, Result->V4]
c. Use denominator of V4 to determine resonance frequency
d. Using values obtained in question 2 determine the oscillation
frequency; The value of tank capacitance could be obtained form
time domain simulation by differentiating the equation Q=C*V
2. Build a 0.13 or 0.18um CMOS quadrature oscillator as shown in the Tiboud paper
(ELEC5809\Assignments\Osc Assign) and defined by the Nodal netlist above.
Use inductors of 1nH value and Q T of 10. Replace the varactor with a fixed
capacitor of 0.2pF.
Compare frequency spectra with one predicted by Nodal
