1. Introduction

Module A-163 is a voltage controlled audio fre-
quency divider
.

The frequency of the input signal (preferably the rec-
tangle output of a VCO) is divided by an integer factor
N
(N = 1, 2, 3, 4 ... up to about 20). The output
waveform
is rectangle with 50% duty cycle.

The divisor N can be adjusted manually and modula-
ted with an external control voltage (e.g. from LFO,
ADSR, Random, MIDI-to-CV, Theremin, Light-to-CV,
analog sequencer) with attenuator.

The following table shows the differences between the
divider modules available in the A-100 system.
