Folks,
deep in my database, there is this reference
R.\ C.\ Harrison,
``Theory of regenerative frequency dividers using double balanced
mixers''
{\em IEEE Trans.\ on Microwawe Theory and Technology},
MTT-S Symp.\ Digest vol.\ 1, June 1989, pp.\ 459--462.
There, you can find some issues about the filter.
Keep the group delay small, otherwise the divider may
enter in chaotic regime.
A short description on where chaos comes from is found in
G.\ Immovilli, G.\ Mantovani
``Analysis of the Miller Frequency divider by two in view of
applications to
wideband FM signals''
{\em Alta Frequenza}
vol.\ 17 no.\ 11, November 1973, pp.\ 313--323.
Very best to all
Enrico
