Ah yes rate multipliers, I never realy studied their internal circuit much till now, they always seemed confusing. the 7497 doesnt seem to be available in any flavour, digikey has some cmos 4000 ones. how hard can it be to just lose 9 out of 25 pulses. 50mhz shld be doable with the higher speed 74 cmos families I think.

This will fit into a 22V10 so you can do it with one chip if you want. The dinner bell just rang. I'll be back with something not using programable parts after dinner. -- -- kensmith(a)rahul.net forging knowledge

Most swallow systems result in an irregular output waveform, which may or may not create downstream issues (such as unwanted sidebands/spurs). I suspect you have created a problem by your choice of /64. Can you not source some other prescaler? If not, you are probably looking at two cascaded dual modulus divide by 4/5 stages, and I'm not aware of any integrated 4/5 devices.
