  • Abstract
    A high-speed CMOS frequency divider is proposed. Using fewer transistors and only NMOS transistors in the regenerative circuits of the latches, the frequency divider achieves higher speed through the reduced capacitances at the output nodes and larger transconductance. A device sizing rule for the maximum input frequency is given. The proposed frequency divider is suitable for high-speed operational while consuming a moderate amount of power
