When using the DLL alone: The time

Notes:
1. The values in this table are based on the operating conditions described in Table 2 and Table 51.
2. Indicates the maximum amount of output jitter that the DCM adds to the jitter on the CLKIN input.
3. For optimal jitter tolerance and faster LOCK time, use the CLKIN_PERIOD attribute.
4. Some jitter and duty-cycle specifications include 1% of input clock period or 0.01 UI. For example, this data sheet specifies a maximum jitter of
(1% of CLKIN period + 150 ps). Assuming that the CLKIN frequency is 100 MHz, the equivalent CLKIN period is 10 ns. Since 1% of 10 ns is 0.1 ns
or 100 ps, the maximum jitter is (100 ps + 150 ps) = 250 ps.
5. A typical delay step size is 23 ps.

CLKIN_PER_JITT_FX
Period jitter at the CLKIN input.
Notes:
1. DFS specifications apply when using either of the DFS outputs (CLKFX or CLKFX180).
2. When using both DFS and DLL outputs on the same DCM, follow the more restrictive CLKIN_FREQ_DLL specifications in Table 51.
3. CLKIN input jitter beyond these limits can cause the DCM to lose LOCK.
