Techniques involving the generation of signals at particular frequencies are disclosed. For instance, an apparatus may include an oscillator module, a synthesizer module, and a control module. The oscillator module produces an oscillator signal having a first frequency. From the oscillator signal, the synthesizer module produces an output signal having a second frequency. A frequency multiplier corresponds to the first and second frequencies. The control module selects the first frequency and the frequency multiplier such that a difference between the second frequency and a nearest integer multiple of the first frequency is greater than a predetermined threshold. As a result, reductions in spurious outputs may be achieved.
