This letter presents a CAD-oriented approach to the analysis of regenerative analog frequency dividers based upon the Volterra series method. Design information such as locking frequency range and minimum injected power levels can easily be found from the determining equation thus obtained. Locking performances of a MESFET analog 1/3 frequency divider evaluated by the proposed method and a time-domain simulator are included.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
