Spread Spectrum Clock Theory of Operation
The SSC tool will measure the appropriate number of the input clock cycles to see the maximum peak-to-
peak deviation due to the SSC profile (see figure below). This will be equal to the fundamental frequency
divided by the frequency of ½ the SSC cycle. The tool will search for this maximum deviation within the
range of possible SSC frequencies entered in the "Max. SSC Freq. (kHz)" and "Min. SSC Freq. (kHz)"
inputs.
