A system and method are provided for multi-modulus division. The method accepts an input first signal having a first frequency and divides the first frequency by an integral number. A second signal is generated with a plurality of phase outputs, each having a second frequency. Using a daisy-chain register controller, phase outputs are selected and supplied as a third signal with a frequency. Selecting phase outputs using the daisy-chain register controller includes supplying the third signal as a clock signal to registers having outputs connected in a daisy-chain. Then, a sequence of register output pulses is generated in response to the clock signals, and register output pulses are chosen from the sequence to select second signal phase outputs. By using 8-second signal phase outputs, a third signal is obtained with a frequency equal to the second frequency multiplied by one of the following numbers: 0.75, 0.875, 1, 1.125, or 1.25.
