8 years agoFractional N PLL implimentation in IP possible on Cyclone V and max10?
Hi guys. So I have a dedicated PLL chip that can phase lock an output clock of tens of Megahertz to an input clock of tens of Hertz, or million fold, using fractional N PLL. Simple divider...

8 years ago --- Quote Start --- If you use a normal oscillator you could for example count the number of clock cycles during one full period on the 50Hz signal. Then you can use software to compensate any timing measurement/synchronization you do, based on that clock cycles count. But it really depends on your application and how accurate you need to be. If you really need those 10^6 cycles then I think your only solution is to use an external pll. --- Quote End --- Thanks, Daixiwen. Is there a name for this type of circuit function?
