Cyclone 10 PLLs -> downscale clocks -> how much possible?

Hi All,

 

I'm working with Cyclone 10 GX, which has a reference clock of 100MHz .
 
What lowest frequency could I reach with PLLs using this clock as a reference clock?
 
I've tried to play with Fractional and Integer PLLs and the lowest frequency I succeeded to reach was 3MHz. Is it possible to reach lower frequencies?
 
How can I set cascading of the PLLs?
 
Thank you!

Hello,
minimal output frequency is definer bei VCO frequency range and output divider factor. It's about 0.6 MHz. Lower frequencies can be achieved with frequency divider in core logic.
