Abstract :
A double precharge TSPC D-flip-flop (DFF) is proposed and a 3 GHz dual-modulus prescaler using the double precharge TSPC in 0.35 μm CMOS technology is presented in this paper. The double precharge TSPC DFF can reduce setup time compared with the conventional one, so it contributes to enhancing the operating speed of a dual-modulus prescaler. A 128/129 dual-modulus prescaler using the proposed flip-flop shows a maximum operating frequency of 3 GHz with 16 mW power consumption at 3.3 V power supply
