T_BPWH
High pulse width of the CLK signal
T_BPWL
Low pulse width of the CLK signal
Clock Frequency
F_BRAM
Block RAM clock frequency. RAM read output value written back
into RAM, for shift registers and circular buffers. Write-only or
read-only performance is faster.
Notes:

Digital Clock Manager Timing
For specification purposes, the DCM consists of three key
components: the Delay-Locked Loop (DLL), the Digital Fre-
quency Synthesizer (DFS), and the Phase Shifter (PS).
Aspects of DLL operation play a role in all DCM applica-
tions. All such applications inevitably use the CLKIN and the
CLKFB inputs connected to either the CLK0 or the CLK2X
feedback, respectively. Thus, specifications in the DLL
tables (Table 26 and Table 27) apply to any application that
only employs the DLL component. When the DFS and/or
the PS components are used together with the DLL, then
the specifications listed in the DFS and PS tables (Table 28
through Table 31) supersede any corresponding ones in the
DLL tables. DLL specifications that do not change with the
addition of DFS or PS functions are presented in Table 26
and Table 27.
Period jitter and cycle-cycle jitter are two of many different
ways of specifying clock jitter. Both specifications describe
statistical variation from a mean value.
Period jitter is the worst-case deviation from the ideal clock
period over a collection of millions of samples. In a histo-
gram of period jitter, the mean value is the clock period.
Cycle-cycle jitter is the worst-case difference in clock period
between adjacent clock cycles in the collection of clock peri-
ods sampled. In a histogram of cycle-cycle jitter, the mean
value is zero.
Spread Spectrum
DCMs accept typical spread spectrum clocks as long as
they meet the input requirements. The DLL will track the fre-
quency changes created by the spread spectrum clock to
drive the global clocks to the FPGA logic. See XAPP469,
Spread-Spectrum Clocking Reception for Displays
for details.
