A programmable phase frequency divider for space applications is implemented in CMOS technology, and consists of three radiation hardened D-type flip flops and combinational logic circuits to provide the feedback controls that allow programmable frequency division ratios from 1 to 8. The radiation hardened D-type flip flop circuits are designed to keep on running properly at GHz frequencies even after a single event upset (SEU) hit. The novel D-type flip flop circuits each have two pairs of complementary inputs and outputs to mitigate SEU's. The combinational logic circuits are designed to utilize the complementary outputs in such a way that only one of the four dual complementary inputs to any D-type flip flop gets flipped at most after an SEU hit. Therefore, a radiation hardened programmable phase frequency divider that is immune to SEU's is achieved.
