Abstract

A fourth order resonator has been implemented to design an injection locked frequency divider (ILFD) implemented in a 0.18‐μm CMOS process. The ILFD is realized with a cross‐coupled nMOS LC‐tank oscillator with a direct injection MOSFET and two series‐LC resonators. At the supply voltage of 0.8 V, the low‐band free‐running tuning frequency is from 2.7 to 3.18 GHz. One excited high‐band frequency band is measured, and the free‐running tuning frequency is from 4.07 to 4.13 GHz. The divide‐by‐2 operational locking range is from 3.4 to 9.4 GHz, and the divide‐by‐4 operational locking range is from 10.5 (15.95) GHz to 13.6 (16.9) GHz for the low‐(high)‐frequency band. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
