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

Can anyone tell me?

If N flip flops are connected, then input frequency is divided by 2^n.

So in this problem

20.48 * 10^6 / 2^12 = 5000Hz.

12 flip-flop =2^12 =4096.

Input clock frequency of 20.48 MHz.

F=I/P CLOCK FREQUENCY/2^N.
F=(20.48X10^6)/2^12 =5KHZ.

Output freq = Input freq/ 2^n.

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

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

Output frequency = input frequency/n^12.

Where n=2 for divide-by-2 divider normally it takes n=2.

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

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

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

Shivaji said:   1 decade ago
N=2^n;where n= number of flip-flops,N=total number of states of a counter

Ramakrishna said:   2 years ago
Output frequency = Input Freq./2^N.

Here, N is a number of flip-flops.
