Abstract
In a frequency divider in which a dividing number defined by the ratio of an input frequency to an output frequency is changed between two states of M and M+1 (M is an integer), the time point when the dividing number becomes M+1 is randomized on the time axis with the average dividing number being maintained at M+1/N (N is an integer).
