Abstract
In this paper, a 6-bit true modular programmable frequency divider with division ratios ranging from 64 to 127 is reported. It is composed of a divider chain of 6 divide-by-2/3 cells, and ECL stages that are introduced as synchronization circuits for programming inputs. The synchronization circuits have CMOS input for compatibility with programming circuits. The stand-alone divider chain is functional up to an input clock frequency of 49 GHz. The combination of the divider chain with synchronization circuits is functional up to 44 GHz. The 6 stage divider draws 34 mA current from a 2.7 V supply. The synchronization circuits draw 30 mA from a 3 V supply. The circuit is fabricated in a 0.13 μm SiGe BiCMOS technology, and is well suited for millimeter-wave phase-locked loop (PLL) circuits which require fine frequency resolution.
