A full wave rectified sinewave has only even harmonics present.

you start with a pulse with a 25% duty cycle you can get even order.
It's best to optimize the pulse width for the harmonic you want.

Which leads me to ask a novice question:
Why not pull a 16 MHz crystal and multiply to 64 MHz?
If you count down from 64 to 10 MHz, isn't the multiplication inside
the
PLL?
Perhaps the noise is multiplied by 4, but would it work for the
intended
purpose?

Can you do x4 multipliers? I thought odd-order harmonics were usually
used for multipliers. I'd be happy to be wrong!
