When the decimal portion of the FOD divide value is near an integer boundary, integer boundary spurs can occur. In general, this "integer boundary" is when the decimal portion is between 0.9 and 1, or 0 and 0.1. For example, if the BAW frequency is 2467MHz, and an output of 122.88MHz, then the FOD must run at 245.76MHz. 2467MHz divided by 245.76MHz is approximately 10.038. The decimal portion of the divide value is 0.038, which falls between 0 and 0.1, and thus means that generating a 122.88MHz output can result in spurs in the 12kHz to 20MHz band on the output clock. In some cases, proper frequency planning can account for this by increasing the FOD frequency and the channel divider value. For any concerns about integer boundary spurs for a specific frequency plan, contact TI.
