Binary Division = Really Easy - A series of divide by 2s - flip flops or other similar circuit Integer Division = Not quite as easy - Count pulses then turn on or off - Easy to implement Binary Multiplication = Not really easy, but doable - Multiply triangle waves with precision rectifiers then convert to square waves Integer Multiplication = Not impossible, but pretty stinkin hard - Only way I can think of to do this aside from syncable VCOs is to use multiplication scheme above and then divide using counters - this would still be an approximation. i.e. 10 stages of multiplication divided by 341 would = 3.003x not 3.000x Paul H. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Neil Bradley" <nb@...> Cc: <motm@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, January 03, 2006 8:28 PM Subject: Re: [motm] Re: External clock module >> It might be interesting to have a more powerful Master clock module >> that could be used to drive S&H's or other modules. >> >> It would be nice to have a clock that could output a variety of >> subdivisions, like 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, etc, via individual jacks. > > Or multipliers.
