[FAQ] LMK5B33216: How to choose the loop bandwidth for your PLL

Part Number: LMK5B33216


Here's some information on choosing a loop bandwidth for your PLL to optimize noise performance.

The presentation starts with some general theory on noise and PLLs, discusses how to pick loop bandwidth for a "PLL/VCO optimized" filter vs. choosing a narrower loop bandwidth for "jitter cleaning" with a VCO, VCXO, or XO in the case of DPLLs dominant loop filter.
