Hi,
If you go to the Texas Instruments site:
http://www.ti.com/sc/docs/products/logic/cd4059a.html
you will find the spec sheet for a CD4059A, a 16 bit, programmable
divider IC.  This will make it extremely simple to do your divide by any
number from 3 to 15,999.  Mouser Electronics is selling them for $3.58.
Just add 16 bits worth of DIP switches together with pull-ups, one
button for preset (reset to zero) and you are done.  Since it is a CD
part, you can run it on anything from 3 to 15V.  Take a look at the spec
sheet, and if you still have a problem, send me a note, and I=92ll draw u=
p
a schematic and post it.
Charles R. Patton
P.S., I=92m posting from work, so if you want to direct email, the addres=
s
below will work better over the weekend.
