  • 第一個電路是具有三個頻帶除二注入鎖定除頻器,使用TSMC 0.18 μm 1P6M CMOS製程,此注入鎖定除二除頻器使用交叉耦合的NMOS對和兩個並聯四階LC共振腔來形成一個六階共振腔具有三個共振頻率。測得的數據可顯示出注入鎖定除頻器可藉由固定偏壓條件下或可變電容的開關操作而具有三個鎖定範圍。


    A three-band divide-by-2 LC injection-locked frequency divider (ILFD) was implemented in the TSMC 0.18 μm 1P6M CMOS process. The divide-by-2 ILFD using a cross-coupled nMOS pair and two shunt 4th order LC resonators to form a 6th order resonator with three resonant frequencies. Measured data has shown the ILFD has three locking ranges at fixed bias condition or by varactor bias switching.
