12 flip flops = 2^12 = 4096.
=> 20.48*10^6=20480000.

20480000/4096 = 5000 i.e., 5 kHz.

What is the actual formula for output frequency?

Newbie_ynv said:   1 decade ago
On what basis its 2^12 ?

Gagan said:   1 decade ago
Please tell the formula.

Kowsalya said:   1 decade ago
On what basis 20.48*10^6?

Divyanshu said:   1 decade ago
@Kowsalya

20.48 MHz = 20.48*10^6 Hz

Manimegala said:   1 decade ago
Output frequency = Input Freq./2^N.

Here N is no of filp-flops.

@manimegala

Yes correct.

Arunalex said:   1 decade ago
N=number of Flip Flop, Input Frequency in MHz so 10^6

20.48 Mhz= 20480 Khz;
12 flip flops indicating 2 power 12 counter i.e 2 power 12 = 4096;
20480/4096=5 khz.
