MC14521B 24-Stage Frequency Divider The MC14521B consists of a chain of 24 flipflops with an input circuit that allows three modes of operation. The input will function as a crystal oscillator, an RC oscillator, or as an input buffer for an external oscillator. Each flipflop divides the frequency of the previous flipflop 24 by two, consequently this part will count up to 2 = 16,777,216.
