Abstract

This frequency dividing device has an input terminal for a signal to be divided and an output terminal for an output signal. It further comprises: a first mixing circuit which is particularly of the sub-harmonic type, has a first input which forms the input terminal, and a second input for receiving a signal from a local oscillator; a first dividing circuit for dividing the output signal of the first mixing circuit; a second dividing circuit for dividing the output signal of the local oscillator; and a second mixing circuit which has a first input for receiving the output signal of the first dividing circuit, and a second input for receiving the output signal of the second dividing circuit, and an output which forms the output terminal.
