Hello Mohamed,

I didn't consider the difference between baseband and passband bw, but
isn't the difference by a factor two going in the wrong direction here?

If I assume that the PLL blocks want the bw defined as passband, when I
get the signal out of the PLL blocks at baseband, I should see a bw that
is half of the one I specified at passband, not twice it.

If I assume that the PLL blocks want the bw defined as baseband, I
should see no difference in bw.

I'm still puzzled.

Cheers,
Daniele
