Abstract

A fractional dual-modulus prescaler (FDMP) with regenerative divider for 5 GHz band is presented using 0.13 mum CMOS technology. It provides a solution to generate a dual-modulus fractional division ratio which keeps up with high operation frequency from a voltage-controlled oscillator. The maximum operation frequency of FDMP is 6.3 GHz consuming 6.75 mW at 1.2 V supply voltage. The proposed FDMP achieves both high operation frequency and large output swing of the quadrature outputs.
