In this paper, we present a low-power static frequency divider with a divide ratio of eight. It operates up to 15 GHz, consuming only 22 mA from a 3.6-V supply. The chip is manufactured in a 0.8-μm silicon bipolar production technology with a cutoff frequency of 25 GHz. The circuit has a single-ended input and output and is mounted in a six-pin SOT363 plastic package
