to divide the

You don't need the property name in the description. The entries are the
pre-scaler values for each channel? The array index is the channel? If
so, then 'an array of pre-scaler values for each channel ...'.

It's an array, so a scalar default doesn't make sense.

Constraints? I assume there's a finite number of channels to set the
array size bounds for example.
