frequency synthesis in which a PLL divider ratio is dithered by a delta-sigma modulator to get fine frequency steps with low spurs.

In RF engineering, fractional-N frequency synthesis refers to frequency synthesis in which a PLL divider ratio is dithered by a delta-sigma modulator to get fine frequency steps with low spurs. This meaning comes from Riley (1993) in IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits.[1]
