Dividers

[Kevin Lightner]

I once had an idea for a divider as a Moog module. It had 3 separate 4017
counter's with a rotary switch
to select what division was taking place on each stage.

Each stage had an in and out jack and an LED for each and also a "cascade"
switch to
 serially hook one stage into another.

You could do weird divisions like divide by 9 x 7 x 5 (315), however many
number were not available.

There was also a master reset input (and pushbutton and LED) to reset all
the counters, back to zero.

I never did finish it.
 It need some opamps on the ins and outs to condition the signals, though
it does have some schmitts on the inputs.

If anybody has a good home for this (I'll sell it cheap) or wants to finish
it (I'll pay), please drop me a line.
I'm way too busy to be making one off Moog modules right now.

There is a pic of it at:

(It is next to a Bode frequency shifter and yes, it say's Zimmer Labs as
the maker. Inside joke....!)

Any thoughts on this design?
