Abstract
A binary frequency divider circuit with insulated gate field effect transistors (MOST) powered by a constant voltage source is derived from a known static circuit by eliminating transistors that do not take part in switching, which allows nodes of the circuit to float. Certain transistors, which are eliminated in known dynamic circuits, are retained so that the nodes float for only one value of an input variable, but not for the other.
