  • Page 23 It is up to the user to ensure the PLL dividers are programmed correctly. To illustrate the proper programming of the LMK04816 device in dual loop 0-delay mode the following case examples are provided. Note that in one of the cases, the feedback frequency from the clock output matches the VCXO frequency and CodeLoader will display the proper frequency values.
