A new portable clock generator with full pull-in range and fast acquisition is presented in this paper, where it can be developed at hardware description language (HDL) to reduce design cycle as well as improve system-level integration simulation. In the proposed design, frequency tracking is performed by the “Prune-and-Search” algorithm, and the digital-controlled ring oscillator is constructe...

We report on a multichannel liquid-crystal-based wave-front corrector with smooth modal influence functions. The phase is controlled by application of spatially localized ac voltages to a distributed voltage divider formed by a liquid-crystal layer sandwiched between a high-conductance and a low-conductance electrode. The shape of the influence function depends on the control frequency and mate...

A phase-locked-loop (PLL)-based frequency synthesizer incorporating a phase detector that operates on a windowing technique eliminates the need for a frequency divider. This new loop architecture is applied to generate the 1.573-GHz local oscillator (LO) for a Global Positioning System receiver. The LO circuits in the locked mode consume only 36 mW of the total 115-mW receiver power, as a resul...

Restoring and non-restoring divider has become widely applicability in the era of digital computing application due to its computation speed. In this paper, we have proposed the design of divider of different architecture for the computation of Vedic sutra based. The design of divider in the Vedic mode results in high computation throughput due to its replica architecture, where latency is mini...

We propose the concept of nonreciprocal filtering power dividers, which are compact devices able to merge functionalities dividers and combiners, selectivity bandpass filters, magnetless nonreciprocity from time-modulation. A prototype this type operating at microwaves has been implemented in microstrip technology. The device is composed a Wilkinson divider integrated with two identical filters...

This paper presents the design of a novel dual-band unequal Wilkinson power divider. The proposed power divider can operate at arbitrary two frequencies without reactive components. The design and analysis of power divider are presented. The structure of the power divider and the formulas used to determine the design parameters have been given. Closed-form design equations are derived based on ...
