Abstract

A frequency-generator circuit employs the same circuit element (preferably a varactor) to perform the functions of parametric frequency-divider and frequency-adjustment element for an oscillator used to pump the parametric frequency-divider.The varactor preferably has a flat gamma-characteristic (gamma preferably > 2) over a required bias-voltage adjustment range corresponding to the required frequency-adjustment range.

Description

[0001] The technical field of the present invention [0002] The present invention relates to frequency generator circuits incorporating a parametric frequency divider. Background of the invention [0003] Oscillators used in phase-locked loops (PLLs) often require a divider section to reduce the input frequency to a value that can be handled by the phase detector. An example of a frequency divider operating on the parametric principle is described in German Patent DE 19529529, published October 31, 1996, by Robert Bosch (Ag) and shown in FIG. 1 . In Fig. 1, the key element is the varactor diode 10, which acts as a nonlinear reactance. Upstream of the diode 10 is an input filter 11, which is a high-pass filter tuned to the frequency of the input signal E, which in turn acts as an impedance converter to make the line impedance at the input of the circuit equal to the low input of the diode 10 impedance matching. There is an output filter 12 downstream of the diode 10, which ...
