Abstract :
A new frequency divider, called differential injection locking, is proposed. The proposed divider has no transistor stacking to suppress the performance degradation due to supply voltage reduction. It is shown that the proposed frequency divider achieves 2 GHz with 1 V supply voltage and 540 μW power consumption.
