Embodiments describe techniques for utilizing fractional-N phase locked loops (PLL). Some embodiments describe a fractional-divider based fractional-N PLL for a spread spectrum clock (SSC) generator that utilizes phase average techniques to suppress phase interpolator nonlinearity. Some embodiments describe a fractional-N PLL based on fractional dividers with hybrid finite impulse response (FIR) filtering. Some embodiments describe a small size and low power divider for a hybrid FIR fractional-N PLL.
