Thank you. I will use Matlab to do the brute-force search based on your suggestions.
I was hoping for that there was an elegant closed-form solution from number theory :)
P2 is restricted to something similar to P1.
P1 and P2 represent reference frequencies generated by two different crystal oscillators. For various design reasons, it would be best if P2 is "similar" to P1. P2 preferably should be an integer, but can be a rational number.
For example if P1 is...
I am new to this forum. I am an electrical engineer designing frequency synthesizers for electronic test and measurement equipment.
I have a design problem and I think that number theory could help me solve it. I'm not a mathematician, so I will state the problem the best I can.
