539 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 539edo or 539ed2), also called 539-tone equal temperament (539tet) or 539 equal temperament (539et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 539 equal parts of about 2.23 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/539, or the 539th root of 2.

539edo is inconsistent to the 5-odd-limit. If harmonic 5 is used at all, the 539c val has better overall accuracy than the patent val. Meanwhile, the patent val tempers out the sensipent comma, 78732/78125, and provides the optimal patent val for the 5-limit sensipent temperament, tuning it more accurate than 65et by a tiny margin.
