Low-Jitter 0.1-to-5.8 GHz Clock Synthesizer for Area-Efficient Per-Port Integration

Figure 3

The victim VCO oscillates at  GHz, while an aggressor oscillating at  GHz induces sidebands at (4.479 GHz–4.477 GHz) = 2 MHz away from the victim VCO. Note that the first upper sideband (at the aggressor frequency) is explained by constructive addition of AM and PM components and is larger in magnitude than the first lower sideband.
