为使DRM/DAB/AM/FM频率综合器具有良好性能,本文设计了一种高速大分频比低功耗吞吐脉冲分频器.此吞吐脉冲分频器由32/33双模预分频器(dual—modulus prescaler,DMP)、5位吞吐计数器和11位可编程分频器及时序控制电路构成.此吞吐脉冲分频器内部的不同模块分别采用SCL、TSPC、CMOS静态触发器及可置位的CMOS静态触发器等多种触发器结构优化,使此吞吐脉冲分频器具有高速、大分频比和低功耗的特点.此吞吐脉冲分频器应用中芯国际SMIC0.18μm RFCMOS工艺流片,芯片核心面积为270μm×110μm.测试结果显示,在1.8V工作电压的条件下,此吞吐脉冲分频器的最高工作频率为3.4GHz,工作频率范围为0.9—3.4GHz.在输入信号频率为3.4GHz,分频比为45695时,功耗为3.2mW.实验结果表明,此吞吐脉冲分频器完全满足DRM/DAB/AM/FM频率综合器的要求.
For the good performance of DRM/DAB/AM/FM frequency synthesizer, the implementation of a high-speed large division ratio low-power pulse swallow frequency divider is described, which consists of a divided-by-32/33 dual-modulus prescaler (DMP), a 5 bits swallow counter, an 11-bits programmable divider, and a time sequence control circuit. The different modules of pulse swallow frequency divider apply SCL, TSPC, CMOS static flip-flop DFF, and CMOS static flip-flop DFF with preset to realize the low power, large division ratio, and high speed performances. The chip has been fabricated in a 0. 18 μm CMOS process of SMIC and the core area is 270 μm×110μm. Measured results show that its most high operation frequency is 3.4 GHz and the rang of operation frequency is from 0. 9 GHz to 3.4 GHz. And when the operating frequency is 3.4 GHz and division ratio is 45 695, the maximum core power consumption is 3.2 mW under 1.8 V power supply. Its performance satisfies the requirement of DRM/DAB/AM/FM frequency synthesizer.
