÷64/128/256 Prescaler
Legacy Device: Motorola MC12079
The ML12079 is a single modulus divide by 64, 128, 256 prescaler
for low power frequency division of a 2.8 GHz (typical) high frequen-
cy input signal. Divide ratio control inputs SW1 and SW2 select the
required divide ratio of ÷64, ÷128, or ÷256.

An external load resistor is required to terminate the output. A 1.2
1
kΩ resistor is recommended to achieve a 1.6 V output swing, when
pp
dividing a 1.1 GHz input signal by the minimum divide ratio of 64,
assuming a 12 pF load. Output current can be minimized dependent
on conditions such as output frequency, capacitive load being driven,
and output voltage swing required. Typical values for load resistors
