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 manage-  
able 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 simpli-  
fied schematic. The PFD includes a programmable delay ele-  
ment 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).

The A and B CMOS counters combine with the dual-modulus  
prescaler to allow a wide range division ratio in the PLL feed-  
back 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.

MUXOUT AND LOCK DETECT  
Control Bits  
The output multiplexer on the ADF4360 family allows the user  
to access various internal points on the chip. The state of  
MUXOUT is controlled by M3, M2, and M1 in the function  
latch. The full truth table is shown in Table 7. Figure 13 shows  
the MUXOUT section in block diagram form.

Lock Detect  
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.  
VCO  
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 greater than 25 ns is detected on any subse-  
quent 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 pow-  
er-up. This sequence is  
The N-channel open-drain analog lock detect should be operat-  
ed with an external pull-up resistor of 10 kΩ nominal. When  
lock has been detected, the output will be high with narrow  
low-going pulses.

INPUT SHIFT REGISTER  
The ADF4360 familys digital section includes a 24-bit input  
shift register, a 14-bit R counter, and an 18-bit N counter, com-  
prising 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. The two LSBs are DB1 and  
DB0, as shown in Figure 2.  
FREQUENCY (MHz)  
Figure 14. Frequency vs. VTUNE, ADF4360-1  
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.

ADF4360-1  
After band select, normal PLL action resumes. The nominal value  
of KV is 57 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 min-  
imize any variation of the product of ICP and KV.  
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.  
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.

OUTPUT STAGE  
The RFOUTA and RFOUTB pins of the ADF4360 family are con-  
nected 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 versus the output  
power requirements, the tail current of the differential pair is  
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, −10.5 dBm,  
−8 dBm, and −6 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).

ADF4360-1  
Data Sheet  
POWER-UP  
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 the-  
se 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 oscillate at the desired frequency, which does not allow  
the band select logic to choose the correct frequency band and  
the ADF4360-1 may not achieve lock. If the recommended in-  
terval 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.  
Power-Up Sequence  
The correct programming sequence for the ADF4360-1 after  
power-up is:  
1. R counter latch  
2. Control latch  
3. N counter latch  
Initial Power-Up  
The 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 ADF4360-1 VCO. The recom-  
mended 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 in the Table 10.  
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  
interval is necessary to allow the transient behavior of the  
ADF4360-1 during initial power-up to have settled.

Hardware Power-Up/Power-Down  
Software Power-Up/Power-Down  
If the ADF4360-1 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 fre-  
quency 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 ca-  
pacitance of 440 nF on this pin enables lock times of <600 µs.  
If the ADF4360-1 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 fre-  
quency 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 the part is in  
power-down because it may not lock to the correct frequency  
on power-up. If it is updated, the correct programming se-  
quence for the part 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.

ADF4360-1  
Data Sheet  
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 pow-  
erdown 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 pro-  
grammed 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 will go 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.  
When a power-down is activated (either in synchronous or  
asynchronous mode), the following events occur:  
Phase Detector Polarity  
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 noninverting 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.  
The RF outputs are debiased to a high impedance state.  
The reference input buffer circuitry is disabled.  
Counter Reset  
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  
latching data.  
Core Power Level  
PC1 and PC2 set the power level in the VCO core. The recom-  
mended setting is 15 mA. See the truth table in Table 7.

ADF4360-1  
R COUNTER LATCH  
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.  
With (C2, C1) = (1, 0), the N counter latch is programmed.  
Table 8 shows the input data format for programming the  
N counter latch.  
R Counter  
A Counter Latch  
R1 to R14 set the counter divide ratio. The divide range is 1  
(00......001) to 16383 (111......111).  
A5 to A1 program the 5-bit A counter. The divide range is 0  
(00000) to 31 (11111).  
Antibacklash Pulse Width  
Reserved Bits  
DB16 and DB17 set the antibacklash pulse width.  
Lock Detect Precision  
DB7 is a spare bit that is reserved. It should be programmed to 0.  
B Counter Latch  
DB18 is the lock detect precision bit and 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, and with LDP  
at 0, three cycles are taken.  
B13 to B1 program the B counter. The divide range is 3  
(00.....0011) to 8191 (11....111).  
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 will always reflect 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  
Reserved Bits  
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 will need a value of N = 12,000 to generate  
1.2 GHz. With the divide-by-2 select bit high, the user may keep  
N = 6,000.  
DB23 to DB22 are spare bits that are reserved. They should be  
programmed to 0.

APPLICATIONS  
DIRECT CONVERSION MODULATOR  
Direct conversion architectures are increasingly being used to  
implement base station transmitters. Figure 17 shows how ADI  
parts can be used to implement such a system.  
The LO ports of the AD8349 can be driven differentially from  
the complementary RFOUTA and RFOUTꢀ outputs of the  
ADF436±-1. This gives a better performance than a single-  
ended LO driver and eliminates the often necessary use of a  
balun to convert from a single-ended LO input to the more  
desirable differential LO inputs for the AD8349. The typical  
rms phase noise (1±± Hz to 1±± kHz) of the LO in this  
configuration is 1.±9°.  
The circuit block diagram shows the AD9761 TxDAC® being  
used with the AD8349. The use of dual integrated DACs, such  
as the AD9761 with its specified ±±.±0 dꢀ and ±±.±±4 dꢀ gain  
and offset matching characteristics, ensures minimum error  
contribution (over temperature) from this portion of the  
signal chain.  
The AD8349 accepts LO drive levels from −1± dꢀm to ± dꢀm.  
The optimum LO power can be software programmed on the  
ADF436±-1, which allows levels from −13 dꢀm to −6 dꢀm from  
each output.  
The local oscillator is implemented using the ADF436±-1. The  
low-pass filter was designed using ADIsimPLL for a channel  
spacing of 1 MHz and an open-loop bandwidth of 05 kHz. The  
frequency range of the ADF436±-1 (0.±5 GHz to 0.45 GHz)  
makes it ideally suited for implementation of a ꢀluetooth®  
transceiver.  
The RF output is designed to drive a 5± Ω load but must be  
ac-coupled, as shown in Figure 17. If the I and Q inputs are  
driven in quadrature by 0 V p-p signals, the resulting output  
power from the modulator will be approximately 0 dꢀm.

ADF4360-1  
ADuC812 Interface  
FIXED FREQUENCY LO  
Figure 19 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 is written, the LE input should be brought high to  
complete the transfer.  
Figure 18 shows the ADF4360-1 used as a fixed frequency LO at  
2.2 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 ADF4360-1 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, –99 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 –99 dBc/Hz, thus giving the best possible inte-  
grated noise. The typical rms phase noise (100 Hz to 100 kHz)  
of the LO in this configuration is 0.3°. The reference frequency  
is from a 16 MHz TCXO from Fox, thus an R value of 2 is pro-  
grammed. 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 pow-  
erdown (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 20 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 fram-  
ing. 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 inter-  
face for writing to the device. CLK, DATA, and LE control the  
data transfer. When LE goes high, the 24 bits that are clocked  
into the appropriate register on each rising edge of CLK get  
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 the maximum update rate possible is 833 kHz or one  
update every 1.2 µs. This is certainly more than adequate for  
systems that will have typical lock times in hundreds of micro-  
seconds.  
Figure 20. ADSP-21xx to ADF4360-x Interface  
Set up the word length for 8 bits and use three memory loca-  
tions 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.

PCB DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR CHIP-SCALE PACKAGE  
Experiments have shown that Figure 22 provides an excellent  
match to 50 Ω over the operating range of the ADF4360-1. This  
gives approximately −4 dBm output power across the frequency  
range of the ADF4360-1. Both single-ended architectures can  
be examined using the EV-ADF4360-1EB1 evaluation board.  
The leads on the chip-scale package (CP-24) are rectangular.  
The printed circuit board pad for these should be 0.1 mm long-  
er 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 short-  
ing is avoided.

Figure 22. Optimum ADF4360-1 Output Stage  
If the user does not need the differential outputs available on  
the ADF4360-1, the user may either terminate the unused out-  
put or combine both outputs using a balun. The circuit in Fig-  
ure 23 shows how best to combine the outputs.  
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.

OUTPUT MATCHING  
OUT  
1.5pF  
There are a number of ways to match the output of the  
ADF4360-1 for optimum operation; the most basic is to use a  
50 Ω resistor to VVCO. A dc bypass capacitor of 100 pF is con-  
nected in series, as shown Figure 21. Because the resistor is not  
frequency dependent, this provides a good broadband match.  
The output power in this circuit typically gives −6 dBm output  
power into a 50 Ω load.  
Figure 23. Balun for Combining ADF4360-1 RF Outputs  
The circuit in Figure 23 is a lumped-lattice-type LC balun. It is  
designed for a center frequency of 2.2 GHz and outputs 1.0 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 accomplish this. The 47 nH is used to provide  
an RF choke in order to feed the supply voltage, and the 10 pF  
capacitor provides the necessary dc block. To ensure good RF  
performance, the circuits in Figure 22 and Figure 23 were im-  
plemented with Coilcraft 0402/0603 inductors and AVX 0402  
thin-film capacitors.

Figure 21. 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 and hence 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 addi-  
tional rejection of the second harmonic. The shunt inductor  
needs to be a relatively high value (>40 nH).  
Alternatively, instead of the LC balun shown in Figure 23, both  
outputs may be combined using a 180° rat-race coupler.
