I was wondering if someone could help me with frequency dividers. Basically what I have is this clock signal at 3570 Hz and want to divide it by 200/30 (6.66667). I've been searching around but haven't found something straight forward and easy which will work with that fraction. I was thinking maybe finding something that would multiply the frequency by 15 then divide by 100 or something.\]
Added after 48 minutes:
i can do the division simply enough by using a decade counter but am still stumped about multiplying by 15.
If you want the exact fractional division, you need a PLL to multiply frequency. Otherwise you'll can get average fractional division by alternating the division ratio between 6 and 7.
Ya, a PLL is probably what I need. I'm trying to find one which has an input frequency this low (~ 3.5 kHz) and also can produce a frequency 15x the input. The ones I've found only do binary multiplication and have minimum input frequencies in the Mhz.
It can work e.g. with a CD4046 or 74HC4046 and external counters, that provide the respective factors. If programmable
logic is involved with your design, you can place anything except the analog PLL in the logic device.
