Abstract :
The authors present a 3-V dual-modulus (÷64/65, ÷128/129) prescaler that operates up to 1.0 GHz with a 3-mW (VCC at 2.58 V) power consumption. Under the normal supply voltage of 3 V, the maximum operating frequency and power dissipation are 1.18 GHz and 5 mW, respectively. This has been achieved by accurate circuit simulation and by the use of a 0.2-μm bipolar technology
