1. A prescaler circuit, comprising:

  • an input buffer coupling input signals to clock and inverted clock signal inputs of first, second and third flip-flops;

    a first input of said first flip-flop coupled to a first output of said second flip-flop;

    a second input of said first flip-flop coupled to a first output of said third flip-flop;

    a first output of said first flip-flop coupled to a first input of said second flip-flop and to a first clock input of a fourth flip-flop;

    a second output of said first flip-flop coupled to a second input of said second flip-flop and to a second clock input of said fourth flip-flop;

    a second output of said second flip-flop coupled to a first input of said third flip-flop;

    a first output of said fourth flip-flop coupled to a second input of said third flip-flop and to a first clock input of a fifth flip-flop;

    a second output of said fourth flip-flop coupled to a second clock input of said fifth flip-flop;

    a third input of said third flip-flop coupled to the output of a logic gate;

    a first input of said logic gate coupled to receive a select signal;

    a first output of said fifth flip-flop coupled to a first clock input of a sixth flip-flop and to a second input of said logic gate;

    a second output of said fifth flip-flop coupled to a second clock input of said sixth flip-flop;

    a third input of said logic gate coupled to a first output of said sixth flip-flop.
