Hello,
We have seen that it is different the clock configured/generated by Fractional PLL and the generated by the timing analyzer.
They use different factor to generate VCO frequency:
refCLK x (M+f/2^32) / N
For the example in the figure: (9+2164663431/4294967296) / 1 = 9.50399997993372380733
refCLK x M' / N'
For the attached in the figure: (2433 / 256) = 9.50390625
Those figures are: timing report (clocks) and fitter (pll usage summary)
How can we manage it?
What is the correct frequency?
What frequency use the timing analyzer?
Quartus Prime 18.1.1 + Cyclone V
Regards,
JMedi

Hi,
I got some information from our team:
The Timing Analyzer numbers do have some inaccuracies, though they are consistent with each other & don't explain the PLL report's numbers:
- Timing Analyzer stores clock periods, not their frequencies
- Periods are only stored to three decimal places
- The period of descendant clocks uses the mult & div factors of all of its ancestors, instead of using the mult & div factors of the truncated period of a parent clock
Regards.
