Popis: Spread spectrum clocking slowly sweeps clock frequency of a digital system to reduce the Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). In a digital system on chip, there can be subsystems where clock spreading is not allowed. This paper analyzes the performances achievable by spread spectrum clocking when a constraint is imposed to easily synchronize clock modulated and unmodulated subsystems. It is shown that the best modulation gain (17 dB) is achieved by using optimized discontinuous modulation.
