Notes:
1. Measured at 50% of the input transition
2. The maximum value for PLL enabled is given for minimum VCO and maximum MF.
3. The maximum value for PLL enabled is given for minimum VCO and maximum DF.
4. The indicated duty cycle is for the specified maximum frequency for which a part is rated. The minimum clock high or low
time required for correct operation, however, remains the same at lower operating frequencies; therefore, when a lower
clock frequency is used, the signal symmetry may vary from the specified duty cycle as long as the minimum high time
and low time requirements are met.
