	if it is for digital audio: Use an external 6.144MHz VCXO and
a portion of a CPLD for the clock divider and the XOR between
clock divider output and your 48kHz word clock input. This solution 
has low jitter and give you a stable 6.144MHz. Useable for audio-DACs, 
AES3-encoders, etc... 

	And, dont forget a simple low pass filter (10k, 47n) between 
the CPLD output pin and the voltage-control-XO input.

Even if it is for audio, the 6 MHz might be just for data storage, and so be
independent of the audio rate.

I am guessing from the numbers given by the original poster that this is for
digital audio, probably an external clock being multiplied to drive an
oversampling ADC clock input or something of this sort. If this is the case
not only it has to be continuous, but it has to be low jitter too.

(join the domain name in one word and add a dot before "ca")

Most DLL use a chain of buffers to stretch over a whole period. That limits
the lower frequency end to something like 20 MHz (which might need a
thousand stages of 50 ps each).
In a CPLD, this is out of the question.
Your best bet is an external PLL, or "knit your own" using an external VCO
and do the 7-bit counting and the phase detector inside the CPLD.

Here is a weird idea:
If your 6 MHz need not be a continuously running signal, but only the right
number of pulses averaged over time, you could build an RC oscillator of,
say, 10 MHz and turn it off after 128 pulses, on again at the beginning of
the next 48 kHz signal. That could be done with 8 macrocells, 3 pins, and 2
resistors and one capacitor....

Hi, for a re-desing i'd like to omit a 'standard' pll with counters etc.
used for
frequency multiplication, by a cpld.
Among other things, the cpld has to perform a 128x frequency multipliction
 48KHz to 6144Khz).
Some (many) cpld's have on-board pll's but these are not usefull because
they are inteded
for clock distribution and the lowest operating frequency is much lower than
48KHz.

Therefor i'd like to implement a 'dpll' in a cpld, that can multiply 48KHz
to 6144KHz, or
is there perhaps another way?

Are there any free vhdl sources for this pll?

Best,
Jim
