APPENDIX G—NEAR INTEGER RATIOS
To provide more details and to provide boundaries with respect to the “Reference vs. Output Frequency” issue
described in Appendix B on page 121, the following study was performed and is presented below.
Test Conditions
XA/XB External Reference held constant at 38.88 MHz
Input frequency centered at 155.52 MHz, then scanned.
Scan Ranges and Resolutions:
± 50 ppm with 2 ppm steps
± 200 ppm with 10 ppm steps
± 2000 ppm with 50 ppm steps
Output frequency always exactly four times the input frequency
Centered at 622.08 MHz
Jitter values are RMS, integrated from 800 Hz to 80 MHz
