Jitter is extremely important in systems using PLL-based
clock drivers. The effects of jitter range from not having any
effect on system operation to rendering the system completely
non-functional. This application note provides the reader
with a clear understanding of jitter in high-speed systems. ...
Highlights the LTC1062 as a lowpass filter in a phase lock loop. Describes how the loop's bandwidth can be increased and the VCO output jitter reduced when the LTC1062 is the loop filter. Compares it with a passive RC loop filter. Also discussed is the use of LTC1062 as simple bandpass and ban ...
