Frequency Divider

Frequency locking in an injection-locked frequency divider equation

We consider a model for a resonant injection-locked frequency divider, and study analytically the locking onto rational multiples of the driving frequency. We provide explicit formulae for the width of the plateaux appearing in the devil’s staircase structure of the lockings, and in particular show that the largest plateaux correspond to even integer values for the ratio of the frequency of the...

Design of High Frequency Cmos Fractional-n Frequency Divider

This paper discussed the circuit level design and simulation of fractional-N frequency divider, a circuit block used mainly in frequency synthesizer. The design was done in schematic level. A low power 0.5 micron CMOS technology called CMOSIS5 used for modeling the circuit devices. The frequency divider was design for 900 MHz GSM standard mobile communication application. For the simulation, ci...

Prescaler PLL Frequency Synthesizer with Multi-Programmable Divider

In the phase locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer which is used in a higher frequency region, the prescaler method is employed in order to increase the operating frequency of the programmable divider. However, since the fixed divider whose division ratio is same as the prescaler is installed at the following stage of the reference divider, the reference frequency is decreased and the perform...
