Abstract :
In this paper a modified frequency multiplier based on a low power duty cycle corrector is presented. The proposed circuit multiplies the output frequency of a PLL, by 3. Also, the output duty cycle of the multiplier could be controlled by changing the ratio of charging/discharging current of the charge pump. This circuit is simulated by using 0 18 um CMOS process. When the VCO operates at 846MHz the power dissipation of the circuit is 1.16mW at 1.8V supply voltage.
