Abstract
A multimode millimeter-wave frequency divider circuit with multiple selectable frequency dividing modes is proposed, which is designed for integration with a millimeter wave (MMW) circuit system, such as a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit, for providing multimode frequency dividing functions. In actual application, the millimeter wave frequency divider circuit of multi frequency dividing mode provides at least three frequency dividing operational modes, including modes of dividing two, dividing 3 and dividing four. In practice, the millimeter wave frequency divider circuit of multi frequency divider mode may be integrated with a millimeter wave phase-locked circuit to provide a frequency synthetic function having multi frequency sections, such as including 38 GHZ, 60 GHZ and 77 GHZ, and may use reduced circuit layout surfaces and operational power.
