摘要
A new injection-locked frequency divider (ILFD) using a standard 0.18 mu m, CMOS process is presented. The ILFD is based on a differential Colpitts voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) with a direct injection MOSFET for coupling an external signal to the resonators. The VCO is composed of two single-ended VCOs coupled with two transformers. Measurement results show that at the supply voltage of 1.4 V the divider's free-running frequency is tunable from 4.77 to 5.08 GHz, and the proposed circuit can function as a first harmonic injection-locked oscillator, divide-by-2, -3, and -4 frequency divider. At the incident power of 0 dBm the divide-by-2 operation range is front the incident frequency 7.7 to 11.5 GHz and the divide-by-4 operation range is from the incident frequency 18.9 to 20.2 GHz.
