Abstract :
This paper describes the design of high speed, low power-dissipation frequency divider. The circuit has wide applications in high-speed communication systems, especially in clock recovery and frequency synthesis. Since frequency divider is one of the key parts in the frequency synthesis, divider´s speed limits the precision and the frequency of the frequency synthesis. In the paper, a frequency divider configured as master-slave flip-flop based on RAM cell is presented. Using TSMC 0.25um CMOS SPICE parameters, the divider circuit is simulated with HSPICE and get such results: while operating at 10 GHz with the 2V supply voltage, it dissipates only 2.6mW.
