What then is the relation between propagation delay and clock frequency of flip-flop?

What are the two stable states of flipflops?

A counter or a flip flop in series combination acts as a frequency divider and divides the frequency in the power of 2^n, where n represents the number of flip flops used.

Therefore, (20.48*10^6)/2^12.

Output freq = Input freq/ 2^n.

Where 'n' is number of flipflops = 20.48 * 10^6/ 4096 = 10^6/200 = 5000 = 5kHz.

Each flip flop reduces frequency by factor of 2. Hence 12 flip flops so f (out) = (1/ (2^12) )f (input).

f(out) = (20.48 * 10^6) / (2^12) = 5000Hz = 5KHz.

What is the main difference for the relation between propagation delay and clock frequency of flip-flop?

Can anyone tell me?

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