- Description:
The digital frequency divider is a programmable step-down divider that accepts an arbitrary divisor (div_factor), a duty-cycle term (high_cycles), and an initial count value (i_count). The generated output is synchronized to the rising edges of the input signal. Rise delay and fall delay on the outputs may also be specified independently.
Example SPICE Usage:
a4 3 7 divider
.model divider d_fdiv(div_factor = 5 high_cycles = 3
+ i_count = 4 rise_delay = 23e-9
+ fall_delay = 9e-9)
