| Jan 26, 2016 at 10:00 | comment | added | Andy aka | Is this linear with frequency or logarithmic with frequency? At the midpoint frequency (say 100 Hz) are you wanting your 100 Hz input clock to be exactly a 100 Hz 50% duty output clock i.e. no change or are you wanting your input frequency only to set the duty cycle of some arbitrary frequency that is not connected? Is your input duty cycle 50% or might this vary? | |
