17 years agoAligning a derived PLL clock with an external clock
Hello, previously i asked (http://www.alteraforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5439) about using a PLL to synchronize two clocks and received some excellent advice. My original question: ...

17 years agoI don't really see where or what the problem is.
I can input 120MHz to PLL and produce 120MHz, 60MHz & 40MHz & 30MHz & 20MHz & 10MHz ...etc all with the PLL phase output for each set to same value(in degrees or picosec). The compiler will tell you how much accuracy it achieved. In a project of mine I did that with an external clk of 20.48MHz and produced a catalogue of other synchronised clks(204.8, 102.4, 51.2,20.48,10.24) without problem. I have to trust the PLL unless proved otherwise, just like I trust an AND function will be AND.
