Abstract
A fourth order resonator has been implemented to design an injection locked frequency divider (ILFD) implemented in a 0.35‐μm SiGe 3P3M BiCMOS process. The ILFD is realized with a cross‐coupled HBT LC‐tank oscillator with switched varactor bias for frequency band selection. The LC tank is a 4th order resonator and it can operate with two tunable frequency bands. Measurement results show that at the supply voltage of 1.25 V, the free‐running frequency can be from 3.22 (6.76) to 3.41 (7.53) GHz for the low‐(high‐) frequency band. The divide‐by‐2 operational locking range can be from 6.3 (12.8) to 6.95 (15.3) GHz for the low‐(high‐) frequency band. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
