Abstract

An LC‐tank injection locked frequency divider (ILFD) is proposed, and the ILFDs with a direct‐injection MOSFET and a tail‐injection HBT were implemented in the 0.35 μm SiGe 3P3M BiCMOS technology. Measurement results show that when the tuning voltage is tuned from 0 V to 1.8 V, the free‐running oscillation frequency of ILFD is tunable from 2.29 GHz to 2.94 GHz, and at the incident power of 0 dBm the divide‐by‐2/(‐4) operation range is from the incident frequency 4.2 to 6.7/(9.06 to 11.96) GHz. The core power consumption is 2.6 mW at V~dd~ = 1.1 V. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
