CASE 1. MODE = DO or DR; PRESCALE FACTOR, S = 1
In this setup a frequency division of the input clock, ƒi by a factor of 2 to 257, in increments of 1 can be
obtained according to the equation:
ƒo =
ƒi
W + 2 where W (weighting factor) = 0 to 255
The ƒo pulse width is non-symmetrical (non-50% duty -cycle)
CASE 2. MODE = DD; PRESCALE FACTOR, S = 1
In this setup a frequency division of the input clock, ƒi by a factor of 2 to 512, in increments of 2 can be
obtained according to the equation:
ƒo =
ƒi
2(W + 1)
where W (weighting factor) = 0 to 255
The ƒo pulse widths are symmetrical with 50% duty -cycle
