Frequency divider. A frequency divider, also called a clock divider or scaler or prescaler, is a circuit that takes an input signal of a frequency, , and generates an output signal of a frequency: where is an integer. Phase-locked loop frequency synthesizers make use of frequency dividers to generate a frequency that is a multiple of a ...
Voltage divider. In electronics, a voltage divider (also known as a potential divider) is a passive linear circuit that produces an output voltage ( Vout) that is a fraction of its input voltage ( Vin ). Voltage division is the result of distributing the input voltage among the components of the divider. A simple example of a voltage divider is ...
A division algorithm is an algorithm which, given two integers N and D (respectively the numerator and the denominator), computes their quotient and/or remainder, the result of Euclidean division. Some are applied by hand, while others are employed by digital circuit designs and software. Division algorithms fall into two main categories: slow ...
In electronics, a current divider is a simple linear circuit that produces an output current ( IX) that is a fraction of its input current ( IT ). Current division refers to the splitting of current between the branches of the divider. The currents in the various branches of such a circuit will always divide in such a way as to minimize the ...
Power dividers (also power splitters and, when used in reverse, power combiners) and directional couplers are passive devices used mostly in the field of radio technology. They couple a defined amount of the electromagnetic power in a transmission line to a port enabling the signal to be used in another circuit.
In computer programming, an arithmetic shift is a shift operator, sometimes termed a signed shift (though it is not restricted to signed operands). The two basic types are the arithmetic left shift and the arithmetic right shift. For binary numbers it is a bitwise operation that shifts all of the bits of its operand; every bit in the operand is ...
Angular frequency (or angular speed) is the magnitude of the pseudovector quantity angular velocity. [ 1] Angular frequency can be obtained multiplying rotational frequency, ν (or ordinary frequency, f) by a full turn (2 π radians ): ω = 2π rad⋅ν . It can also be formulated as ω = dθ/dt, the instantaneous rate of change of the angular ...
U+00D7 × MULTIPLICATION SIGN. The division sign ( ÷) is a mathematical symbol consisting of a short horizontal line with a dot above and another dot below, used in Anglophone countries to indicate the operation of division. This usage, though widespread in some countries, is not universal and the symbol has a different meaning in other countries.
