Hello,
I have a design with a low jitter reference clock at 50MHz. I would like
to divide it by 2 but without adding much jitter.
Can I do that with a $0.40 D flipflop gate or do I really need a low
jitter PLL?
I think the flipflop can degrade the cyclic ratio and add some unknown
delay but I don't see why it would degrade the jitter performance.
Am I to optimistic? The signals are 1.8V CMOS.
Thanks,
Marc
