  • Abstract
    With the goal of reducing EMI generated by high frequency digital clocks, this paper describes a very flexible way of modulating the output of a standard PLL which provides more than 13 dB of power attenuation at the expense of a small and controlled increase of the clock jitter. The trade-offs are analyzed, and an implementation is presented with measurement results on a test chip
