Injection-locked oscillators (ILOs) are investigated in a new theoretical approach. A first-
order differential equation is derived for the noise dynamics of ILOs. A single-ended injection …

Injection-locked frequency dividers (ILFDs) are versatile analog circuit blocks used, for
example, within phase-locked loops (PLLs). An important attribute is substantially lower …

The authors report on a theoretical analysis of the phase noise in regenerative dividers, and
provide design rules for the best spectral unity. The spectral purity is, in fact, the reason why …

In the past 10 years extensive effort has been dedicated to commercial wireless local area
network (WLAN) systems. Despite all these efforts, however, none of the existing systems …

This research work presents the analysis, design, and characterization of a concept for an
mm-wave divide-by-4 frequency divider utilizing an extended true single-phase clock (E …

This study compares the phase noise of different classes of oscillators and amplifiers that
work at X-band. Best-in-class results are presented based on recent measurements at NIST …

The phase noise performance obtainable using silicon and GaAs-based TTL (transistor-
transistor logic) and ECL (emitter-coupled logic) logic level digital frequency dividers is …

A review of phase noise performance data for frequency multiplier (transistor and step-
recovery diode impulse generator, and diode and transistor full-wave rectifier doubler) …

We demonstrate regenerative divide-by-two (halver) circuits with very low phase modulation
(PM) noise at input frequencies of 18.4 GHz and 39.8 GHz. The PM noise of the 18.4 to 9.2 …

A comprehensive analytical study of regenerative frequency dividers (RFD) is presented.
The study includes two fundamental modes of operation in RFDs, namely locked (or stable) …
