PRODUCTION DATA.
The energy of the harmonics from the rectangular clock signal can be spread over a certain frequency range. This frequency deviation leads to lowered average amplitude of the harmonics. This can help to mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI) challenges in a system when the receiver supports this mode of operation. The modulation shape is triangular.
The SSC clock is generated through the fractional-N PLL. When SSC is enabled, SSC clock is available on all clock sourced from the PLL. Reference clock or PFD clock is available on the OUT1–OUT4 pins.
Down spread and center spread are supported. The following modes are supported.
Using these pre-configured settings, fmod of 31.5 kHz is synthesized for 100-MHz output clock.
