A frequency divider for converting an n-bit periodic counting stream (each period containing a single zero or one bit, respectively, followed by n-1 one or zero bits) into a 2n-bit counting stream includes a two-input NOR gate or NAND gate, respectively, connected for delivering its output to an n-bit delay device, the NOR or NAND gate further connected for receiving the output of the delay device as feedback at one of its two-input terminals and for receiving the n-bit counting stream at the other of its two-input terminals. The output of the delay device is then a 2n-bit counting stream.

The present invention provides a power amplifier operating with a single power supply. The amplifier includes at least one depletion-mode FET for amplifying an ac signal and a negative voltage generator for providing a bias to the FET. Preferably the amplifier further includes a negative voltage regulator to provide a regulated bias to bias the FET for a class A, AB or B operation. The negative generator includes a multivibrator for producing two clock signals and a charge pump which receives the clock signals and produces a negative voltage. Advantageously the negative voltage is provided as a low reference potential to the multivibrator so that the clock signals it produced include a negative voltage period, which enables the charge pump to operate in a power efficient manner.

A high gain, low noise amplifier having an active load with an inductor. The circuit may be fabricated, into a microwave monolithic integrated circuit using GaAs field effect transistors. The amplifier input is connected to the gate terminal of a first MESFET. A DC voltage source is connected to the drain terminal of the first MESFET via a low noise active load device having a second MESFET. The load device also includes an inductor connected between the drain terminal of the first MESFET and the source terminal of the second MESFET. The output terminal of the amplifier is connected to the drain terminal of the first MESFET.

A multiple-frequency local oscillator for providing an LO signal at one of a multiple of predetermined resonant frequencies associated with a number of resonators is disclosed. It includes a number of LO input ports for coupling to a plurality of resonators, respectively, each resonator having a predetermined resonant frequency; the local oscillator is controlled to selectively provide at its LO output port an output LO signal at any one of the resonant frequencies.
