Abstract
Low voltage LOGEN. LOGEN is a local oscillator generator. Two separately implemented dividers allow for relatively lower power dissipation while supporting multiple modes of operation within the communication device. Each of these two or more dividers has different phase noise characteristics. These at least two separately implemented dividers also allows for the supporting of at least two modes of operational within an apparatus. In certain applications (e.g., wireless applications), there is a need for relatively low phase noise characteristics therein, and the use of these at least two separately implemented dividers allows for the appropriate implementation of the relatively higher grade dividers in those areas that can benefit more there from.
