640 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 640edo or 640ed2), also called 640-tone equal temperament (640tet) or 640 equal temperament (640et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 640 equal parts of about 1.88 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/640, or the 640th root of 2.

640edo is enfactored in the 5-limit, tempering out the vishnuzma, [23 6 -14, with the same tuning as 320edo. In the 7-limit it tempers out 19683/19600 and [16 2 -1 -6 and in the 11-limit it tempers out 540/539, 8019/8000 and [14 -1 -2 -4 1. It provides the optimal patent val for the rank-3 albus temperament tempering out 540/539 and 8019/8000, and hemipental, the 255 & 385 temperament.

Subsets and supersets

Since 640 factors into 27 × 5, 640edo has subset edos 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 32, 40, 64, 80, 128, 160, and 320.
