The down scalers are comprised of dual modulus prescaler （DMP） and programmable ＆ pulse swallow divider,different methods of high frequency analog circuit and digital logical synthesis are adopted respectively. Using a DMP high speed, lower jitter and lower power dissipation are obtained,and output frequency of 133.0MHz of the DMP working at divide-by-8 shows an RMS jitter less than 2ps. The flexibility and reusability of the progrs, mmable divider is high;its use could be extended to many complicated frequency synthesizers. By comparison,it is a better design on performance of high-frequency circuit and good design flexibility.展开更多

Low power comsumption prescaler is one of the most critical unit of frequency synthesizer. For the frequency divider, it must be programmable for channel selection in multi-channel communication systems. A dual-modulus prescaler (DMP) is needed to provide variable division ratios. DMP is considered as a critical power dissipative block since it always operates at full speed. This paper introduces a high speed and low power complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) 15/16 DMP based on true single-phase-clock (TSPC) and transmission gates (TGs) cell. A conventional TSPC is optimized in terms of devices size, and it is resimulated. The TSPC is used in the synchronous and asynchronous counter. TGs are used in the control logic. The DMP circuit is implemented in 0.18 μm CMOS process. The simulation results are provided. The results show wide operating frequency range from 7.143 MHz to 4.76 GHz and it comsumes 3.625 mW under 1.8 V power supply voltage at 4.76 GHz.展开更多
