Since
attenuation will appear to be lower for small input
jitter signals than for large ones. Consequently,
accurate jitter transfer function measurements are
usually made with large input jitter signals (e.g., 75%

Frequency Accuracy
Frequency accuracy is defined as the absolute
tolerance of an output clock signal when it is not
locked to an external reference, but is operating in a
free running mode. For the MT9040, the Freerun
accuracy is equal to the Master Clock (OSCi)
accuracy.
Capture Range
Also referred to as pull-in range. This is the input
frequency range over which the synchronizer must
be able to pull into synchronization. The MT9040
capture range is equal to
±
230 ppm minus the
accuracy of the master clock (OSCi). For example, a
32 ppm master clock results in a capture range of 198
ppm.
Lock Range

Phase Lock Time
This is the time it takes the synchronizer to phase
lock to the input signal. Phase lock occurs when the
input signal and output signal are not changing in
phase with respect to each other (not including jitter).
Lock time is very difficult to determine because it is
affected by many factors which include:
i) initial input to output phase difference
ii) initial input to output frequency difference
iii) synchronizer loop filter
Although a short lock time is desirable, it is not
always possible to achieve due to other synchronizer
requirements. For instance, better jitter transfer
performance is achieved with a lower frequency loop
filter which increases lock time. See AC Electrical
Characteristics - Performance for Maximum Phase
Lock Time.
MT9040 provides a fast lock pin (FLOCK), which,
when set high enables the PLL to lock to an
incoming reference within approximately 500 ms.
