A programmable divider or prescaler divides an input signal by a divisor of two raised to the mth-power plus one, (2m+1), where m is an integer, and n is a value between zero and two raised to the mth-power minus one, (2m-1). When m is equal to 3, the duty cycle is between 44% and 56%. The divider can be utilized in communication applications for providing radio frequency source signals. The duty cycle is maintained around 50% for use with balanced mixers.
