Frequency multiplier

[Truthlover]

Hi everyone, I just want to know if anyone here have a schematics to build a frequency multiplier. All I have see for the moment is multiplier with a factor of 2. I'm searching a factor 78 frequency multiplier. Also if it exist in a chip i would like to konw it to.


Thanks

The first PLL / frequency multiplier chip (I think) was the NE565 chip in the early-mid 1970's. A block diagram of a NE565-based frequency multiplier is shown in

In your case, the frequency divider is by 13 by 3 and last by 2. I put the divide by 2 last so that the NE565 gets a 50% duty cycle square wave. To see inside the NE565, see

What is the frequency you are trying to multiply?

What is the frequency you are trying to multiply?

it's variable from 1Hz to 20 Hz to get at the output 78Hz to 1560 Hz

There are several ways to do this depending on how accurate you need it to be.

[Truthlover]

I don't need a high accuracy. \pm 2 Hz at the output is good enough for me.

What about Bob's suggestions in post #2?
