ABSTRACT:
A method of estimating jitter for a DFS can include determining a plurality of linear equations, wherein each linear equation corresponds to, at least in part, a combination of multiplier and divisor attributes for setting an output frequency of the DFS, identifying maximum and minimum values for the slope component and the vertical axis intercept component from the plurality of linear equations, providing an equation for determining minimum jitter given, at least in part, an input frequency, and providing an equation for determining maximum jitter given, at least in part, an input frequency. A linear equation can be derived for estimating jitter of the DFS according to a specified input frequency and a specified value of the divisor attribute of the DFS. The linear equation further can depend upon the minimum jitter and the maximum jitter.
