Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
An I2L non-integer programmable counter is provided that has a high frequency precision that uses feedback to adjust count length. A first divider adapted to receive a clock signal having a first frequency and an input signal provide a signal having a second frequency substantially equal to the clock signal divided by a number. A second divider is coupled to the first divider for providing a stepped sine wave through a digital-to-analog converter. The first divider is responsive to both the input signal and feedback from the second divider so that the number may be a non-integer.
