ABSTRACT:
A programmable frequency multiplier device which includes a frequency doubler section configured to receive an input signal having a frequency f, and to output doubled signals, each of the doubled signals having a frequency 2n×f (n=0, 1, 2, . . . ); a selector section configured to select a plurality of the doubled signals output from the frequency doubler section, and to output the plurality of the selected doubled signals as selected signals; and a frequency summation section configured to multiply the selected signals, and to output a multiplied signal having a frequency fout=f×(m020+m121+ . . . +mk2k+ . . . +mn2n), wherein mk=0 or 1, and k=0, 1, . . . , n.
