A quick check of the waveform of the noise by
expanding the bandwidth of a spectrum analyzer
would tell very quickly if it's an errant PLL.
Reference to another post, I have on an interface
board in one of my PCs at home a small square of
metal clipped onto the top of a chip. Can't imagine
the grounding is any good, but could be for emi.
Had a heck of a time with an EPROM being extremely
noisy years ago, 27128 I believe. Ended up putting
that in a can. Doug
