Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention include a frequency synthesizer comprising a first plurality of dividers receiving a first signal having a first frequency and generating a first plurality of divided signals and a frequency combination network including a plurality of mixers, the frequency combination network receiving one or more of the first plurality of divided signals and generating a plurality of synthesized signals having different frequencies. The frequency combination network may further include additional dividers and multiplexers for more flexibility in synthesizing different frequencies. In one embodiment, the frequency combination network is coupled to dividers in the feedback path of a phase locked loop. The present invention is particularly advantageous for synthesizing frequencies above one (1) gigahertz.
