Hi Matt,

If you are only doing the divider thing with them
they are excellent. If you have a lot other things running inside
you may increase your jitter...

Have experience with Altera both maxII and max3xxx,
MaxII being the best showing jitters near the picosecond
(challenging any measurement setup you might think of).

Way better than TTL.
