1. What is the function of ADC prescalar ? Why I need to use prescalar?

2. If I use 12MHz crystal and I choose prescalar of 16, then the clock frequency will be 750 000 Hz. But the datasheet says the frequency should be between 50 kHz - 200kHz. Any explanation about this?

3. If I use codevision, why the clock frequency is 750 000 kHz ? not in Hz like in question 1?

It is shown below:
