Abstract
A frequency multiplier and associated method are provided, wherein the frequency multiplier includes a waveform generator and a slicer. The waveform generator generates a waveform in response to an input signal, and the slicer induces transitions in an output signal whenever the waveform crosses each of a plurality of reference levels, such that a frequency of the output signal is a multiple of a frequency of the input signal.
