Abstract

Disclosed are methods and circuit configurations for reference frequency signal distribution circuitry that suppress unwanted spurious components introduced by way of RF signal leakage. The methods and circuitry may include relocating components of a buffer along a reference frequency signal path, thereby suppressing conductive and inductive components associated with RF leakage paths entering the circuitry. A filter also may be used after the buffer to suppress spurious components resulting from subsampling of unwanted tones in a phase frequency detector or intermodulation between the reference signal and interference tones in the signal-path of the buffer.
