Title:
FREQUENCY DIVIDER
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3707203
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a frequency divider where a clock signal is frequency- divided at frequency division ratios including a half cycle of the clock signal.
SOLUTION: The frequency divider is made up of a 1/(2n+1) frequency divider 1, a duty adjustment device 2, a (n+1/2) clock delay circuit 3 and a changeover device 4, a received clock CKo is frequency-divided at the 1/(2n+1) frequency divider 1 by 1/(2n+1) and then a duty factor of the signal frequency- divided by the duty adjustment device 2 to be 1:2n. The signal whose duty factor is adjusted is delayed at the (n+1/2) clock delay circuit 3 by (n+1/2) clocks and the delayed signal is given to the changeover device 4. On the other hand, even a signal before the delay outputted from the duty adjustment device 2 is given to the changeover device 4 and either of the two signals is selected by the clock CKo, and a frequency division output of CKo/(n+1/2) is obtained from the changeover device 4.
