Abstract
A structure for a high speed low-power GaAs dual-modulus frequency divider is presented in this paper. By using a new flip-flop, simulations predict a lower power consumption than previously reported CMOS and GaAs circuits. The prescaler has been fabricated with a standard 0.6 μm MESFET technology verifying the expected low power dissipation
