VC Frequency Divider

A-163

5

In fig. 1 the triangle signal of a LFO (e.g. A-145) is
used to control the divisor N of the A-163. As only
integer divisors occur both time and frequency quanti-
zation takes place. A so-called "subharmonic glis-
sando" appears, i.e. separate tones with the same
length are generated (subharmonics derived from the
master frequency of the VCO signal).

Frequency Multiplication

In combination with the PLL module A-196 frequency
multiplication can be obtained. For details refer to the
A-196 manual.
