Abstract

See full text

A frequency synthesizer comprising a first phase locked loop (PLL) circuit coupled to receive a reference frequency signal from a reference oscillator, the first PLL circuit comprising a first voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) having a bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator and a first fractional feedback divider circuit, the first PLL circuit outputting a first tuned frequency signal and a first plurality of integer divider circuits coupled to receive the first tuned frequency signal from the first PLL circuit and each of the first plurality of integer-only post-PLL divider circuits to provide one of a plurality of output frequency signals of the frequency synthesizer.
