ABSTRACT:
A programmable divider includes a synchronous counter configured to process an input clock signal and produce first output signals in response the input clock signal. A number of logic devices are coupled to the synchronous counter and configurable to receive the first output signals and correspondingly produce second output signals. Also included is a multiplexer that is configured to receive the second output signals and has an output coupled to an input of the synchronous counter. In the programmable divider, characteristics of the synchronous counter are selectable based upon a particular number of the logic devices configured.
