Design and Analysis of a Fractional Frequency Synthesizer With <90-fs Jitter and <-103-dBc Spurious Tones Using Digital Spur Cancellation
In this article, we describe an advanced multi-output fractional frequency synthesizer (FFS) featuring an innovative digital spur cancellation technique. This technique not only effectively suppresses fractional- N spurs but also eliminates externally coupled spurious tones. In addition, this artic...
