PLL clock generators are designed for a third-generation NetBurst™ processor implemented in a 90nm CMOS process. A cascade configuration offers improved jitter attenuation and facilitates a wide synthesis range. Parameter design takes into account a dual-sloped VCO control. A new charge pump topology offers superior symmetry.
