Abstract: A fractional frequency divider counts pulses of a digital input clock signal and enables a clock gating module when a preset count is reached. The clock gating module combines the outputs of two clock gating cells that receive, respectively, the input clock signal and an inverted version of the input clock signal. Output pulses are produced on both positive and negative edges of the input clock signal. This permits generation of output clock pulses that can be set to have a spacing and width granularity of half an input clock period, giving the advantages of low jitter and fine duty cycle control.
