CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
REFERENCE INPUT SECTION
The reference input stage is shown in Figure 10. SW1 and SW2
are normally closed switches. SW3 is normally open. When
power-down is initiated, SW3 is closed, and SW1 and SW2 are
opened. This ensures that there is no loading of the REFIN pin
on power-down.

The 14-bit R counter allows the input reference frequency to
be divided down to produce the reference clock to the phase
frequency detector (PFD). Division ratios from 1 to 16,383 are
allowed.
Figure 10. Reference Input Stage
PRESCALER (P/P + 1)
The dual-modulus prescaler (P/P + 1), along with the A and B
counters, enables the large division ratio, N, to be realized
(N = BP + A). The dual-modulus prescaler, operating at CML
levels, takes the clock from the VCO and divides it down to a
manageable frequency for the CMOS A and B counters. The
prescaler is programmable. It can be set in software to 8/9,
16/17, or 32/33 and is based on a synchronous 4/5 core. There is
a minimum divide ratio possible for fully contiguous output
frequencies; this minimum is determined by P, the prescaler
value, and is given by (P2 − P).
PFD AND CHARGE PUMP
The PFD takes inputs from the R counter and N counter
(N = BP + A) and produces an output proportional to the phase
and frequency difference between them. Figure 12 is a
simplified schematic. The PFD includes a programmable delay
element that controls the width of the antibacklash pulse. This
pulse ensures that there is no dead zone in the PFD transfer
function and minimizes phase noise and reference spurs. Two
bits in the R counter latch, ABP2 and ABP1, control the width
of the pulse (see Table 9).
A AND B COUNTERS
V
P
CHARGE
PUMP
The A and B CMOS counters combine with the dual-modulus
prescaler to allow a wide range division ratio in the PLL
feedback counter. The counters are specified to work when the
prescaler output is 300 MHz or less. Thus, with a VCO
frequency of 2.5 GHz, a prescaler value of 16/17 is valid, but a
value of 8/9 is not valid.

VCO
MUXOUT can be programmed for two types of lock detect:
digital and analog. Digital lock detect is active high. When LDP
in the R counter latch is set to 0, digital lock detect is set high
when the phase error on three consecutive phase detector cycles
is less than 15 ns.
The VCO core in the ADF4360 family uses eight overlapping
bands, as shown in Figure 14, to allow a wide frequency range
to be covered without a large VCO sensitivity (KV) and resultant
poor phase noise and spurious performance.
With LDP set to 1, five consecutive cycles of less than 15 ns
phase error are required to set the lock detect. It stays set high
until a phase error of greater than 25 ns is detected on any
subsequent PD cycle.
The correct band is chosen automatically by the band select
logic at power-up or whenever the N counter latch is updated. It
is important that the correct write sequence be followed at
power-up. This sequence is
The N-channel open-drain analog lock detect should be
operated with an external pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ nominal.
When a lock has been detected, this output is high with narrow
low-going pulses.

INPUT SHIFT REGISTER
The ADF4360 family’s digital section includes a 24-bit input
shift register, a 14-bit R counter, and an 18-bit N counter,
comprised of a 5-bit A counter and a 13-bit B counter. Data is
clocked into the 24-bit shift register on each rising edge of CLK.
The data is clocked in MSB first. Data is transferred from the
shift register to one of four latches on the rising edge of LE. The
destination latch is determined by the state of the two control
bits (C2, C1) in the shift register. These are the two LSBs, DB1
and DB0, as shown in Figure 2.

FREQUENCY (MHz)
Figure 14. Frequency vs. VTUNE, ADF4360-0
The R counter output is used as the clock for the band select logic
and should not exceed 1 MHz. A programmable divider is
provided at the R counter input to allow division by 1, 2, 4, or 8 and
is controlled by Bits BSC1 and BSC2 in the R counter latch. Where
the required PFD frequency exceeds 1 MHz, the divide ratio should
be set to allow enough time for correct band selection.
The truth table for these bits is shown in Table 5. Table 6 shows
a summary of how the latches are programmed. Note that the
test mode latch is used for factory testing and should not be
programmed by the user.
After band select, normal PLL action resumes. The nominal
value of KV is 56 MHz/V or 28 MHz/V, if divide-by-2 operation
has been selected (by programming DIV2 [DB22] high in the N
counter latch). The ADF4360 family contains linearization
circuitry to minimize any variation of the product of ICP and KV.

ADF4360-0
The operating current in the VCO core is programmable in four
steps: 5 mA, 10 mA, 15 mA, and 20 mA. This is controlled by
Bits PC1 and PC2 in the control latch.
If the outputs are used individually, the optimum output stage
consists of a shunt inductor to VDD.
Another feature of the ADF4360 family is that the supply current
to the RF output stage is shut down until the part achieves lock as
measured by the digital lock detect circuitry. This is enabled by the
mute-till-lock detect (MTLD) bit in the control latch.
OUTPUT STAGE
The RFOUTA and RFOUTB pins of the ADF4360 family are
connected to the collectors of an NPN differential pair driven
by buffered outputs of the VCO, as shown in Figure 15. To allow
the user to optimize the power dissipation vs. the output power
requirements, the tail current of the differential pair is
RF

programmable via Bits PL1 and PL2 in the control latch. Four
current levels may be set: +3.5 mA, +5 mA, +7.5 mA, and
+11 mA. These levels give output power levels of −13 dBm,
−11 dBm, −8.5 dBm, and −6.5 dBm, respectively, using a 50 Ω
resistor to VDD and ac coupling into a 50 Ω load. Alternatively,
both outputs can be combined in a 1 + 1:1 transformer or a 180°
microstrip coupler (see the Output Matching section).

ADF4360-0
Data Sheet
This interval is necessary to allow the transient behavior of the
ADF4360-0 during initial power-up to have settled. During
initial power-up, a write to the control latch powers up the part
and the bias currents of the VCO begin to settle. If these
currents have not settled to within 10% of their steady-state
value and if the N counter latch is then programmed, the VCO
may not be able to oscillate at the desired frequency, which does
not allow the band select logic to choose the correct frequency
band and the ADF4360-0 may not achieve lock. If the
POWER-UP
Power-Up Sequence
The correct programming sequence for the ADF4360-0 after
power-up is:
1. R counter latch
2. Control latch
3. N counter latch
recommended interval is inserted and the N counter latch is
programmed, the band select logic can choose the correct
frequency band and the part locks to the correct frequency.
Initial Power-Up
Initial power-up refers to programming the part after the
application of voltage to the AVDD, DVDD, VVCO, and CE pins. On
initial power-up, an interval is required between programming
the control latch and programming the N counter latch.
This duration of this interval is affected by the value of the
capacitor on the CN pin (Pin 14). This capacitor is used to
reduce the close-in noise of the ADF4360-0 VCO. The
recommended value of this capacitor is 10 μF. Using this value
requires an interval of ≥ 5 ms between the latching in of the
control latch bits and latching in of the N counter latch bits. If a
shorter delay is required, this capacitor can be reduced. A slight
phase noise penalty is incurred by this change, which is
explained further in Table 10.

Hardware Power-Up/Power-Down
Software Power-Up/Power-Down
If the ADF4360-0 is powered down via the hardware (using the
CE pin) and powered up again without any change to the N
counter register during power-down, it locks at the correct
frequency because the part is already in the correct frequency
band. The lock time depends on the value of capacitance on the
CN pin, which is <5 ms for 10 μF capacitance. The smaller
capacitance of 440 nF on this pin enables lock times of <600 μs.
If the ADF4360-0 is powered down via the software (using the
control latch) and powered up again without any change to the
N counter latch during power-down, it locks at the correct
frequency because it is already in the correct frequency band.
The lock time depends on the value of capacitance on the CN
pin, which is <5 ms for 10 μF capacitance. The smaller
capacitance of 440 nF on this pin enables lock times of <600 μs.
The N counter value cannot be changed while it is in power-
down because the part may not lock to the correct frequency on
power-up. If it is updated, the correct programming sequence
for it after power-up is to the R counter latch, followed by the
control latch, and finally the N counter latch, with the required
interval between the control latch and N counter latch, as
described in the Initial Power-Up section.

Charge Pump Currents
CONTROL LATCH
CPI3, CPI2, and CPI1 in the ADF4360 family determine
Current Setting 1.
With (C2, C1) = (0, 0), the control latch is programmed. Table 7
shows the input data format for programming the control latch.
CPI6, CPI5, and CPI4 determine Current Setting 2. See the
truth table in Table 7.
Prescaler Value
In the ADF4360 family, P2 and P1 in the control latch set the
prescaler values.
Output Power Level
Bits PL1 and PL2 set the output power level of the VCO. See the
truth table in Table 7.
Power-Down
DB21 (PD2) and DB20 (PD1) provide programmable power-
down modes.
Mute-Till-Lock Detect
DB11 of the control latch in the ADF4360 family is the mute-till-
lock detect bit. This function, when enabled, ensures that the RF
outputs are not switched on until the PLL is locked.
In the programmed asynchronous power-down, the device
powers down immediately after latching a 1 into Bit PD1, with
the condition that PD2 has been loaded with a 0. In the
programmed synchronous power-down, the device power-
down is gated by the charge pump to prevent unwanted
frequency jumps. Once the power-down is enabled by writing a
1 into
Bit PD1 (on the condition that a 1 has also been loaded to PD2),
the device goes into power-down on the second rising edge of
the R counter output, after LE goes high. When the CE pin is
low, the device is immediately disabled regardless of the state of
PD1 or PD2.
CP Gain
DB10 of the control latch in the ADF4360 family is the charge
pump gain bit. When it is programmed to a 1, Current Setting 2
is used. When it is programmed to a 0, Current Setting 1 is
used.
Charge Pump Three-State
This bit puts the charge pump into three-state mode when
programmed to a 1. It should be set to 0 for normal operation.
Phase Detector Polarity
When a power-down is activated (either synchronous or
asynchronous mode), the following events occur:
The PDP bit in the ADF4360 family sets the phase detector
polarity. The positive setting enabled by programming a 1 is
used when using the on-chip VCO with a passive loop filter or
with an active non-inverting filter. It can also be set to 0. This is
required, if an active inverting loop filter is used.
• All active dc current paths are removed.
• The R, N, and timeout counters are forced to their load
state conditions.
MUXOUT Control
• The charge pump is forced into three-state mode.
• The digital lock detect circuitry is reset.
The on-chip multiplexer is controlled by M3, M2, and M1. See
the truth table in Table 7.
Counter Reset
• The RF outputs are debiased to a high impedance state.
• The reference input buffer circuitry is disabled.
DB4 is the counter reset bit for the ADF4360 family. When this
is 1, the R counter and the A, B counters are reset. For normal
operation, this bit should be 0.
• The input register remains active and capable of loading and

PC1 and PC2 set the power level in the VCO core. The

N COUNTER LATCH
R COUNTER LATCH
With (C2, C1) = (1, 0), the N counter latch is programmed.
Table 8 shows the input data format for programming the
N counter latch.
With (C2, C1) = (0, 1), the R counter latch is programmed.
Table 9 shows the input data format for programming the
R counter latch.
A Counter Latch
R Counter
A5 to A1 program the 5-bit A counter. The divide range is 0
(00000) to 31 (11111).
R1 to R14 set the counter divide ratio. The divide range is 1
(00......001) to 16383 (111......111).
Reserved Bits
Antibacklash Pulse Width
DB7 is a spare bit that is reserved. It should be programmed to 0.
DB16 and DB17 set the antibacklash pulse width.
Lock Detect Precision
B Counter Latch
B13 to B1 program the B counter. The divide range is 3
(00.....0011) to 8191 (11....111).
DB18 is the lock detect precision bit. This bit sets the number of
reference cycles with less than 15 ns phase error for entering the
locked state. With LDP at 1, five cycles are taken; with LDP at 0,
three cycles are taken.
Overall Divide Range
The overall divide range is defined by ((P × B) + A), where P is
the prescaler value.
Test Mode Bit
DB19 is the test mode bit (TMB) and should be set to 0. With
TMB = 0, the contents of the test mode latch are ignored and
normal operation occurs as determined by the contents of the
control latch, R counter latch, and N counter latch. Note that
test modes are for factory testing only and should not be pro-
grammed by the user.
CP Gain
DB21 of the N counter latch in the ADF4360 family is the
charge pump gain bit. When this is programmed to 1, Current
Setting 2 is used. When programmed to 0, Current Setting 1 is
used. This bit can also be programmed through DB10 of the con-
trol latch. The bit always reflects the latest value written to it,
whether this is through the control latch or the N counter latch.
Band Select Clock
These bits set a divider for the band select logic clock input. The
output of the R counter is by default the value used to clock the
band select logic, but, if this value is too high (>1 MHz), a
divider can be switched on to divide the R counter output to a
smaller value (see Table 9).
Divide-by-2
DB22 is the divide-by-2 bit. When set to 1, the output divide-by-2
function is chosen. When it is set to 0, normal operation occurs.
Divide-by-2 Select
DB23 is the divide-by-2 select bit. When programmed to 1, the
divide-by-2 output is selected as the prescaler input. When set
to 0, the fundamental is used as the prescaler input. For exam-
ple, using the output divide-by-2 feature and a PFD frequency
of 200 kHz, the user needs a value of N = 13,000 to generate
1,500 MHz. With the divide-by-2 select bit high, the user may
keep N = 6,500.
Reserved Bits
DB23 to DB22 are spare bits that are reserved. They should be
programmed to 0.

APPLICATIONS
FIXED FREQUENCY LO
ADuC812 Interface
Figure 18 shows the interface between the ADF4360 family and
the ADuC812 MicroConverter®. Because the ADuC812 is based
on an 8051 core, this interface can be used with any 8051 based
microcontroller. The MicroConverter is set up for SPI master
mode with CPHA = 0. To initiate the operation, the I/O port
driving LE is brought low. Each latch of the ADF4360 family
needs a 24-bit word, which is accomplished by writing three 8-
bit bytes from the MicroConverter to the device. When the
third byte has been written, the LE input should be brought
high to complete the transfer.
Figure 17 shows the ADF4360-0 used as a fixed frequency LO at 2.6
GHz. The low-pass filter was designed using ADIsimPLL for a
channel spacing of 8 MHz and an open-loop bandwidth of 40 kHz.
The maximum PFD frequency of the ADF4360-0 is 8 MHz.
Because using a larger PFD frequency allows users to use a smaller
N, the in-band phase noise is reduced to as low as possible,
–100 dBc/Hz. The 40 kHz bandwidth is chosen to be just greater
than the point at which the open-loop phase noise of the VCO is
–100 dBc/Hz, thus giving the best possible integrated noise. The
typical rms phase noise (100 Hz to 100 kHz) of the LO in this
configuration is 0.35°. The reference frequency is from a 16 MHz
TCXO from Fox; thus, an R value of 2 is programmed. Taking into
account the high PFD frequency and its effect on the band select
logic, the band select clock divider is enabled. In this case, a value of
8 is chosen. A very simple pull-up resistor and dc blocking
capacitor complete the RF output stage.

I/O port lines on the ADuC812 are also used to control power-
down (CE input) and detect lock (MUXOUT configured as lock
detect and polled by the port input). When operating in the
described mode, the maximum SCLOCK rate of the ADuC812
is 4 MHz. This means that the maximum rate at which the
output frequency can be changed is 166 kHz.

Figure 19 shows the interface between the ADF4360 family and
the ADSP-21xx digital signal processor. The ADF4360 family
needs a 24-bit serial word for each latch write. The easiest way
to accomplish this using the ADSP-21xx family is to use the
autobuffered transmit mode of operation with alternate
framing. This provides a means for transmitting an entire block
of serial data before an interrupt is generated.

INTERFACING
The ADF4360 family has a simple SPI®-compatible serial
interface for writing to the device. CLK, DATA, and LE control
the data transfer. When LE goes high, the 24 bits that have been
clocked into the appropriate register on each rising edge of CLK
are transferred to the appropriate latch. See Figure 2 for the
timing diagram and Table 5 for the latch truth table.

The maximum allowable serial clock rate is 20 MHz. This
means that the maximum update rate possible is 833 kHz or
one update every 1.2 μs. This is more than adequate for systems
that have typical lock times in hundreds of microseconds.
Figure 19. ADSP-21xx to ADF4360-x Interface
Set up the word length for 8 bits and use three memory
locations for each 24-bit word. To program each 24-bit latch,
store the 8-bit bytes, enable the autobuffered mode, and write to
the transmit register of the DSP. This last operation initiates the
autobuffer transfer.

Data Sheet
ADF4360-0
Experiments have shown that the circuit shown in Figure 21
provides an excellent match to 50 Ω over the operating range of
the ADF4360-0. This gives approximately −4 dBm output power
across the frequency range of the ADF4360-0. Both single-ended
architectures can be examined using the EV-ADF4360-0EB1
evaluation board.
PCB DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR CHIP SCALE PACKAGE
The leads on the chip scale package (CP-24) are rectangular.
The printed circuit board pad for these should be 0.1 mm
longer than the package lead length and 0.05 mm wider than
the package lead width. The lead should be centered on the pad
to ensure that the solder joint size is maximized.
V
VCO
The bottom of the chip scale package has a central thermal pad.
The thermal pad on the printed circuit board should be at least
as large as this exposed pad. On the printed circuit board, there
should be a clearance of at least 0.25 mm between the thermal
pad and the inner edges of the pad pattern to ensure that
shorting is avoided.

Figure 21. Differential ADF4360-0 Output Stage
Thermal vias may be used on the printed circuit board thermal
pad to improve thermal performance of the package. If vias are
used, they should be incorporated in the thermal pad at a
1.2 mm pitch grid. The via diameter should be between 0.3 mm
and 0.33 mm, and the via barrel should be plated with 1 ounce
of copper to plug the via.
If the user does not need the differential outputs available on
the ADF4360-0, the user may either terminate the unused
output or combine both outputs using a balun. The circuit in
Figure 22 shows how best to combine the outputs.

The user should connect the printed circuit thermal pad to
AGND. This is internally connected to AGND.

OUTPUT MATCHING
50Ω
There are a number of ways to match the output of the
ADF4360-0 for optimum operation; the most basic is to use a
50 Ω resistor to VVCO. A dc bypass capacitor of 100 pF is
connected in series, as shown in Figure 20. Because the resistor
is not frequency dependent, this provides a good broadband
match. The output power in this circuit typically gives −6.5
dBm output power into a 50 Ω load.
OUT
1.5pF
Figure 22. Balun for Combining ADF4360-0 RF Outputs
The circuit in Figure 22 is a lumped-lattice-type LC balun. It is
designed for a center frequency of 2.6 GHz and outputs −1 dBm
at this frequency. The series 1 nH inductor is used to tune out
any parasitic capacitance due to the board layout from each
input, and the remainder of the circuit is used to shift the
output of one RF input by +90° and the second by −90°, thus
combining the two. The action of the 3.6 nH inductor and the
1.5 pF capacitor accomplishes this. The 12 nH is used to
provide an RF choke to feed the supply voltage, and the 10 pF
capacitor provides the necessary dc block. To ensure good RF
performance, the circuits in Figure 20 and Figure 22 are
implemented with Coilcraft 0402/0603 inductors and AVX 0402
thin-film capacitors.

Figure 20. Simple ADF4360-1 Output Stage
A better solution is to use a shunt inductor (acting as an RF
choke) to VVCO. This gives a better match than a resistor and,
therefore, more output power. Additionally, a series inductor is
added after the dc bypass capacitor to provide a resonant LC
circuit. This tunes the oscillator output and provides
approximately 10 dB additional rejection of the second
harmonic. The shunt inductor needs to be a relatively low value
(<10 nH).
Alternatively, instead of the LC balun shown in Figure 22, both
outputs may be combined using a 180° rat-race coupler.
