Active frequency multiplier
Texas Instruments Semiconductor

CD4089B is a low-power 4-bit digital rate multiplier that provides an output pulse rate that is the clock-input-pulse rate multiplied by 1/16 times the binary input. For example, when the binary input number is 13, there will be 13 output pulses for every 16 input pulses. This device may be used in conjunction with an up/down counter and control logic used to perform arithmetic operations (adds, subtract, divide, raise to a power), solve algebraic and differential equations, generate natural logarithms and trigometric functions, A/D and D/A conversions, and frequency division.

For words of more than 4-bits, CD4089B devices may be cascaded in two different mode: an Add mode and a Multiply mode (see Figs. 14 and 15).
