摘要: 高速数字分频器在基于锁相环的时钟产生电路中具有广泛的应用.在典型D触发器的基础上,文中提出了一种可响应6GHz输入时钟的改进型二分频结构,并实现了2~256连续分频的新型吞脉冲多模分频器.新型分频器结构简单并且不需要双模预分频单元,功耗和面积开销大幅度的降低.基于65nm CMOS工艺设计实现了该高速分频器,版图后仿真结果表明,分频器功能正确,且工作于6GHz时功耗不大于1.3mW.Abstract: High speed frequency divider is widely used in PLL-based frequency synthesizers.A configurable pulse-swallow divider with the range from 2 to 256 is presented in this article.The divider based on an improved divided-by-2 architecture without any conventional dual-modulus prescaler is designed to reduce power consumption and chip area.Implemented in 65nm CMOS process,post-layout simulation results show that the divider can work as high as 6GHz stably while the max power dissipation is no greater than 1.3mW.
