Hi members,
I have a PLL and other different blocks to be clocked by this PLL. When I connect the PLL to these modules using a buffer (constructed with 2 inverters) the amplitude of the PLL signal decrease and the System is not working.

Please help.

Does the amplitude just decrease of completely flatline? If it just decreases then your PLL output cannot drive the load you have on it.

What to do ?

You need to either decrease the load capacitance or increase the drive strength of the PLL driver.
