Hello All,
At my job, I have motors that produce a large amount of pulses per revolution (360 PPR for example), and I'd like to cut that number down by a lot (down to about 1-6 PPR). I've managed to make a "Divide-by-5" using D Flip-Flops and a few logic gates, but now I am looking at the part number stated above. I'm under the impression that when using this IC, I can divide by virtually any number, within limits, but I'm having a hard time understanding the Data Sheet.
I would greatly appreciate some help with understanding the pins and what I need to design a circuit out of this IC.
Thanks in advance,
Gage
Emrys,
Thanks for the help! Your example made it pretty clear to me. I took the liberty of creating my own example, to ensure I understand this completely:
Choosing N=15
Ka=Kb=Kc=0 sets the device into mode "2". 15/2 = 7.5
J4 J3 J2 J1
0 0 0 1 since my remainder = 1
J8 J7 J6 J5
0 1 1 1 since my 1's place = 7
J12 J11 J10 J9
0 0 0 0 since 10's place = 0
J16 J15 J14 J13
0 0 0 0 since my 100's place = 0
Is this all correct?
