Table 27-2 shows the relation between the clock
generated by the PLL and the frequency error from
jitter (measured jitter-induced error of 2%, Gaussian
distribution, within 3 standard deviations), as a
percentage of the nominal clock frequency.
This is clearly smaller than the expected drift of a
crystal oscillator, typically specified at 100 ppm or
0.01%. If we add jitter to oscillator drift, we have a total
frequency drift of 0.0132%. The total oscillator
frequency errors for common clock frequencies and bit
rates, including both drift and jitter, are shown in
Table 27-3.
