5 Description continued  
The LMX243x devices are high-performance frequency synthesizers with integrated dual-modulus prescalers. A  
32/33 or a 16/17 prescale ratio can be selected for the 5-GHz LMX2434 RF synthesizer. An 8/9 or a 16/17  
prescale ratio can be selected for both the LMX2430 and LMX2433 RF synthesizers. The IF circuitry contains an  
8/9 or a 16/17 prescaler.  
Serial data is transferred to the devices through a three-wire interface (DATA, LE, CLK). A low voltage logic  
interface allows direct connection to 1.8-V devices. Supply voltages from 2.25 V to 2.75 V are supported.

MICROWIRE Data input. High-impedance CMOS input. Binary serial data. The MSB  
of DATA is shifted in first. The two last bits are the control bits.  
Chip Enable input. High-Impedance CMOS input. When this pin is set HIGH, the RF  
and IF PLLs are powered up. Power down is then controlled through the  
MICROWIRE. When this pin is set LOW, the device is asynchronously powered  
down, and the charge-pump output is forced to a high-impedance state (tri-state).

Oscillator Enable input. High-impedance CMOS input. When this pin is set HIGH,  
the oscillator buffer is always powered up, independent of the state of the EN pin.  
When this pin is set LOW, the OSCout/ FLoutIF pin functions as an IF fastlock  
output, which connects a resistor in parallel to R2 of the external loop filter.

(6) Normalized Phase Noise Contribution is defined as LN(f) = L(f) 20 log (N) 10 log (fCOMP), where L(f) is defined as the single side  
band phase noise measured at an offset frequency, f, in a 1-Hz bandwidth. The offset frequency, f, must be chosen sufficiently smaller  
than the loop bandwidth of the PLL, yet large enough to avoid substantial phase noise contribution from the reference source. N is the  
value selected for the feedback divider and fCOMP is the RF/IF phase and frequency detector comparison frequency.  
(7) The synthesizer phase noise is measured with the LMX2430PW/LMX2430NPE evaluation boards and the HP8566B Spectrum Analyzer.

8 Parameter Measurement Information  
8.1 Bench Test Setups  
8.1.1 LMX243x Charge-Pump Test Setup  
Figure 23. Charge-Pump Current Test Setup  
Figure 23 shows the setup required to measure the RF charge-pump sink current of the LMX243x device. The  
same setup is used for the LMX2430PW evaluation board. The purpose of this test is to assess the functionality  
of the RF charge pump. The IF charge pump is evaluated in the same way.  
This setup uses an open-loop configuration. A power supply is connected to VCC. By means of a signal  
generator, a 10-MHz signal is typically applied to the FinRF pin. The signal is one of two inputs to the phase /  
frequency detector (PFD). The 3-dB pad provides a 50-Ω match between the PLL and the signal generator. The  
OSCin pin is tied to Vcc. This establishes the other input to the PFD. Alternatively, this input can be tied directly  
to the ground plane. The EN and ENosc pins are also both tied to Vcc. A semiconductor parameter analyzer is  
connected to the CPoutRF pin and used to measure the sink, source, and tri-state leakage currents.  
Let Fr represent the frequency of the signal applied to the OSCin pin, which is simply zero in this case (DC), and  
let Fp represent the frequency of the signal applied to the FinRF pin. The PFD is sensitive to the rising edges of  
Fr and Fp. Assuming positive VCO characteristics (RF_CPP bit = 1); the charge pump turns ON, and sinks  
current when the first rising edge of Fp is detected. Because Fr has no rising edge, the charge pump continues to  
sink current indefinitely. In order to measure the RF charge-pump source current, the RF_CPP bit is simply set to  
0 (negative VCO characteristics) in CodeLoader. Similarly, in order to measure the tri-state leakage current, the  
RF_CPT bit is set to 1.

Bench Test Setups (continued)  
The measurements are typically taken over supply voltage and temperature. The measurements are also  
typically taken at the HIGH and LOW charge-pump current gains. The charge-pump current gain can be  
controlled by the RF_CPG bit in CodeLoader. Once the charge-pump currents are determined, the (i) charge-  
pump output current magnitude variation versus charge-pump output voltage, (ii) charge-pump output sink  
current versus charge-pump output source current mismatch, and (iii) charge-pump output current magnitude  
versus temperature, can be calculated. Refer to the Charge Pump Current Specifications Definition for more  
details.

I1 = Charge-Pump Sink Current at VCPout = Vcc − ΔV  
I2 = Charge-Pump Sink Current at VCPout = Vcc//2  
I3 = Charge-Pump Sink Current at VCPout = ΔV  
I4 = Charge-Pump Source Current at VCPout = Vcc − ΔV  
I5 = Charge-Pump Source Current at VCPout = Vcc/2  
I6 = Charge-Pump Source Current at VCPout = ΔV  
ΔV = Voltage offset from the positive and negative rails. Dependent on the VCO tuning range relative to Vcc and  
GND. Typical values are between 0.5V and 1.0V.

8.1.3 LMX243x FinRF Sensitivity Test Setup  
Figure 25. RF Input Sensitivity Test Setup  
Figure 25 shows the setup required to measure the RF input sensitivity level of the LMX243x device. The same  
setup is used for the LMX2430PW evaluation board. The purpose of this test is to measure the acceptable signal  
level to the FinRF input of the PLL chip. Outside the acceptable signal range, the feedback divider begins to  
divide incorrectly and miscount the frequency. The FinIF sensitivity is evaluated in the same way.  
The setup uses an open-loop configuration. A power supply is connected to Vcc. The IF PLL is powered down  
(IF_PD bit = 1). By means of a signal generator, an RF signal is applied to the FinRF pin. The 3-dB pad provides  
a 50-Ω match between the PLL and the signal generator. The EN, ENosc, and OSCin pins are all tied to VCC  
.
The N value is typically set to 10000 in CodeLoader, that is, RF_B word = 156 and RF_A word = 16 for RF_P bit  
= 0 (LMX2434) or RF_P bit = 1 (LMX2430 and LMX2433). The feedback divider output is routed to the Ftest/LD

pin by selecting the RF_N/2 Frequency word (MUX[3:0] word = 15) in CodeLoader. A Universal Counter is  
connected to the Ftest/LD pin and used to monitor the output frequency of the feedback divider. The expected  
frequency must be the signal generator frequency divided by twice the corresponding counter value, that is,  
20,000. The factor of two comes in because the LMX43x device has an internal /2 circuit which is used to  
provide a 50% duty cycle.  
Sensitivity is typically measured over frequency, supply voltage and temperature. In order to perform the  
measurement, the temperature, frequency, and supply voltage is set to a fixed value, and the power level of the  
signal at FinRF is varied. Sensitivity is reached when the frequency error of the divided RF input is greater than  
or equal to 1 Hz. The power attenuation from the cable and the 3-dB pad must be accounted for. The feedback  
divider miscounts if too much or too little power is applied to the FinRF input. Therefore, the allowed input power  
level is bounded by the upper and lower sensitivity limits. In a typical application, if the power level to the FinRF  
input approaches the sensitivity limits, this can introduce spurs or cause degradation to the phase noise. When  
the power level gets even closer to these limits, or exceeds them, the RF PLL loses lock.  
8.1.4 LMX243x OSCin Sensitivity Test Setup  
Figure 26. OSCin Sensitivity Test Setup  
Figure 26 shows the setup required to measure the OSCin buffer sensitivity level in the LMX243x device. The  
same setup is used for the LMX2430PW evaluation board. This setup is similar to the FinRF sensitivity setup  
except that the signal generator is now connected to the OSCin pin, and both Fin pins are tied to VCC. The 51-Ω  
shunt resistor matches the OSCin input to the signal generator. The R counter is typically set to 1000, that is,  
RF_R word = 1000 or IF_R word = 1000. The reference divider output is routed to the Ftest/LD pin by selecting

Bench Test Setups (continued)  
Figure 28 shows the setup required to measure the RF input impedance of the LMX243x device. The same  
setup is used for the LMX2430PW evaluation board. Measuring the input impedance of the device facilitates the  
design of appropriate matching networks to match the PLL to the VCO, or in more critical situations, to the  
characteristic impedance of the printed-circuit-board (PCB) trace, to prevent undesired transmission line effects.  
The FinIF input impedance is evaluated in the same way.  
Before the actual measurements are taken, the network analyzer must be calibrated, that is, the error coefficients  
must be calculated. The calibration standard of the network analyzer is used to calculate these coefficients. The  
calibration standard includes an open, short and a matched load. A 1-port calibration is implemented here.  
To calculate the coefficients, the PLL chip is first removed from the PCB. A piece of semi-rigid coaxial cable is  
then soldered to the pad on the PCB which is equivalent to the FinRF pin on the PLL chip. Proper grounding  
near the exposed tip of the semi-rigid coaxial cable is required for accurate results. The DC blocking capacitor is  
removed for this test. The network analyzer port is then connected to the other end of the semi-rigid coaxial  
cable. In this way, the semi-rigid coaxial cable acts as a transmission line. This transmission line adds electrical  
length and produces an offset from the reference plane of the network analyzer; therefore, it must be included in  
the calibration. The desired operating frequency is then set. The typical frequency range selected for the RF  
synthesizer of the LMX243x device is from 100 MHz to 6000 MHz.  
The network analyzer calculates the calibration coefficients based on the measured S11 parameters. With this all  
done, calibration is now complete.  
The PLL chip is then placed on the PCB, and a power supply connected to VCC. The EN, ENosc, and OSCin pins  
are all tied to VCC. Alternatively, the OSCin pin can be tied to ground. In this setup, the complementary input  
(FinRF*) is AC-coupled to ground. With the network analyzer still connected to the semi-rigid coaxial cable, the  
measured FinRF impedance is displayed.  
The OSCin input impedance is measured in the same way. The impedance is measured when the oscillator  
buffer is powered up (ENosc is set HIGH) and when the oscillator buffer is powered down (ENosc pin is set  
LOW).

9 Detailed Description  
9.1 Overview  
The basic phase-lock-loop (PLL) configuration consists of a high-stability crystal reference oscillator, a frequency  
synthesizer such as the LMX243x, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), and a passive loop filter. The frequency  
synthesizer includes a phase detector, current-mode charge pump, programmable reference R and feedback N  
frequency dividers. The VCO frequency is established by dividing the crystal reference signal down through the  
reference divider to obtain a comparison reference frequency. This reference signal, fr, is then presented to the  
input of a phase / frequency detector and compared with the feedback signal, fp, which was obtained by dividing  
the VCO frequency down by way of the feedback divider. The phase and frequency detector (PFD) measures the  
phase error between the fr and fp signals and outputs control signals that are directly proportional to the phase  
error. The charge pump then pumps charge into or out of the loop filter based on the magnitude and direction of  
the phase error. The loop filter converts the charge into a stable control voltage for the VCO. The function of the  
PFD is to adjust the voltage presented to the VCO until the frequency of the feedback signal and phase match  
that of the reference signal. When this phase-locked condition exists, the VCO frequency is N times that of the  
comparison frequency, where N is the feedback divider ratio.

9.3 Feature Description  
9.3.1 Reference Oscillator Input  
The reference oscillator frequency for both the RF and IF PLLs is provided from an external reference through  
the OSCin pin. The reference buffer circuit supports input frequencies from 5 to 40 MHz with a minimum input  
sensitivity of 0.5 VPP. The reference buffer circuit has an approximate Vcc/2 input threshold and can be driven  
from an external AC-coupled source. Typically, the OSCin pin is connected to the output of a crystal oscillator.  
9.3.2 Reference Dividers (R Counters)  
The reference dividers divide the reference input signal, OSCin, by a factor of R. The output of the reference  
divider circuits feeds the reference input of the phase detector. This reference input to the phase detector is often  
referred to as the comparison frequency. The divide ratio must be chosen such that the maximum phase  
comparison frequency (fCOMPRF or fCOMPIF) of 10 MHz is not exceeded.  
The RF and IF reference dividers are each comprised of 15-bit CMOS binary counters that support a continuous  
integer divide ratio from 3 to 32,767. The RF and IF reference divider circuits are clocked by the output of the  
reference buffer circuit which is common to both. Refer to RF_R[14:0] - RF Synthesizer Programmable  
Reference Divider (R Counter) (R0[17:3]) and IF_R[14:0] - IF Synthesizer Programmable Reference Divider (R  
Counter) (R3[17:3]) for details on how to program the RF_R and IF_R counters.  
9.3.3 Prescalers  
The FinRF and FinIF input pins drive the input of a differential-pair amplifier. The output of the differential-pair  
amplifier drives a chain of D-type flip-flops in a dual modulus configuration. The output of the prescaler is used to  
clock the subsequent feedback dividers. The RF PLL complementary inputs can be driven differentially, or the  
negative input can be AC-coupled to ground through an external capacitor for single-ended configuration. A  
16/17 or a 32/33 prescale ratio can be selected for the 5-GHz LMX2434 RF synthesizer. An 8/9 or a 16/17  
prescale ratio can be selected for both the LMX2430 and LMX2433 RF synthesizers. The IF PLL is single-ended,  
and an 8/9 or a 16/17 prescale ratio can be selected for the IF synthesizer.  
9.3.4 Programmable Feedback Dividers (N Counters)  
The programmable feedback dividers operate in concert with the prescalers to divide the input signal, Fin, by a  
factor of N. The output of the programmable reference divider is provided to the feedback input of the phase  
detector circuit. The divide ratio must be chosen so that the maximum phase comparison frequency (fCOMPRF or  
fCOMPIF) of 10 MHz is not exceeded.  
The programmable feedback divider circuit is comprised of an A counter (swallow counter) and a B counter  
(programmble binary counter). For both the LMX2430 and LMX2433, the RF_A counter is a 4-bit swallow  
counter, programmable from 0 to 15. The LMX2434 RF_A counter is a 5-bit swallow counter, programmable from  
0 to 31. The LMX243x IF_A counter is a 4-bit swallow counter, programmable from 0 to 15. For both the  
LMX2430 and LMX2433, the RF_B counter is a 15-bit binary counter, programmable from 3 to 32,767. The  
LMX2434 RF_B counter is a 14-bit binary counter, programmable from 3 to 16,383. The LMX243x IF_B is a 14-  
bit binary counter programmable from 3 to 16,383. A continuous integer divide ratio is achieved if N P × (P1),  
where P is the value of the prescaler selected.  
Divide ratios less than the minimum continuous divide ratio are achievable as long as the binary programmable  
counter value is greater than the swallow counter value (B A). Refer to RF_A[3:0] - LMX2430/33 RF  
Synthesizer Swallow Counter (A Counter) (R1[6:3]), RF_A[4:0] - LMX2434 RF Synthesizer Swallow Counter (A  
Counter) (R1[7:3]), RF_B[14:0] - LMX2430/33 RF Synthesizer Programmable Binary Counter (B Counter)  
(R1[21:7]), RF_B[13:0] - LMX2434 RF Synthesizer Programmable Binary Counter (B Counter) (R1[21:8]),  
IF_A[3:0] - IF Synthesizer Swallow Counter (A Counter) (R4[6:3]), and IF_B[13:0] - IF Synthesizer Programmable  
Binary Counter (B Counter) (R4[20:7]) for details on how to program the A and B counters. Equation 4 and  
Equation 5 are useful in determining and programming a particular value of N:  
N = (P × B) + A  
Fin = N × fCOMP

Feature Description (continued)  
9.3.5 Phase / Frequency Detectors  
The RF and IF PFDs are driven from their respective N and R counter outputs. The maximum frequency for both  
the RF and IF phase detector inputs is 10 MHz. The PFD outputs control the respective charge pumps. The  
polarity of the pump-up or pump-down control signals are programmed using the RF_CPP or IF_CPP control  
bits, depending on whether the RF or IF VCO characteristics are positive or negative. Refer to RF_CPP - RF  
Synthesizer Phase Detector Polarity (R0[18]) and IF_CPP - IF Synthesizer Phase Detector Polarity (R3[18]) for  
more details. The PFDs have a detection range of 2π to +2π. The PFDs also receive a feedback signal from  
the charge pump in order to eliminate dead zone.  
9.3.5.1 Phase Comparator and Internal Charge-Pump Characteristics  
Notes:  
1. The minimum width of the pump-up and pump-down current pulses occur at the CPoutRF or CPoutIF  
pins when the loop is phase locked.  
2. The diagram assumes positive VCO characteristic that is, RF_CPP or IF_CPP = 1.  
3. fr is the PFD input from the reference divider (R counter).  
4. fp is the PFD input from the programmable feedback divider (N counter).  
5. CPout refers to either the RF or IF charge-pump output  
Figure 29. Phase Detector and Charge-Pump Operation  
9.3.6 Charge Pumps  
The charge pump directs charge into or out of an external loop filter. The loop filter converts the charge into a  
stable control voltage which is applied to the tuning input of the VCO. The charge pump steers the VCO control  
voltage towards VCC during pump-up events and towards GND during pump-down events. When locked,  
CPoutRF or CPoutIF are primarily in a tri-state mode with small corrections occurring at the phase comparator  
rate. The charge-pump output current magnitude can be selected by toggling the RF_CPG or IF_CPG control  
bits.  
9.3.7 Microwire Serial Interface  
The programmable register set is accessed through the MICROWIRE serial interface. A low voltage logic  
interface allows direct connection to 1.8-V devices. The interface is comprised of three signal pins: CLK, DATA  
and LE. Serial data is clocked into the 24-bit shift register on the rising edge of CLK. The last two bits decode the  
internal control register address. When LE transitions HIGH, DATA stored in the shift register is loaded into one  
of four control registers depending on the state of the address bits. The MSB of DATA is loaded in first. The  
synthesizers can be programmed even in power-down mode. A complete programming description is provided in  
Programming.  
9.3.8 Multi-Function Outputs  
The Ftest/LD output pin of the LMX243x device is a multi-function output that can be configured as a general-  
purpose CMOS tri-state output, push-pull analog lock-detect output, open-drain analog lock-detect output, digital  
filtered lock-detect output, or used to monitor the output of the various reference divider (R counter) or feedback  
divider (N counter) circuits. The Ftest/LD control word is used to select the desired output function. When the  
PLL is in power-down mode, the Ftest/LD output is disabled and is in a high-impedance state. A complete  
programming description of the multi-function output is provided in MUX[3:0] - Multifunction Output Select  
(R3[23:22]:R0[23:22]).

Feature Description (continued)  
9.3.8.1 Push-Pull Analog Lock-Detect Output  
An analog lock-detect status generated from the phase detector is available on the Ftest/LD output pin if  
selected. A push-pull configuration can be selected for the lock-detect output signal. With this configuration, the  
lock-detect output goes HIGH when the charge pump is inactive. It goes LOW when the charge pump is active  
during a comparison cycle. Narrow low-going pulses are observed when the charge pump turns on.  
There are three separate push-pull analog lock-detect signals that are routed to the multiplexer. Two of these  
monitor the lock status of the individual synthesizers. The third detects the condition when both the RF and IF  
synthesizers are in a locked state. External circuitry is required to provide a steady DC signal to indicate when  
the PLL is in a locked state. Refer to MUX[3:0] - Multifunction Output Select (R3[23:22]:R0[23:22]) for details on  
how to program the different push-pull analog lock-detect options.  
9.3.8.2 Open-Drain Analog Lock-Detect Output  
The lock-detect output can be an open-drain configuration. In this configuration, the lock-detect output goes to a  
high impedance state when the charge pump is inactive. It goes LOW when the charge pump is active during a  
comparison cycle. When a pullup resistor is used, narrow low-going pulses are observed when the charge pump  
turns on.  
Similarly, three separate open-drain analog lock-detect signals are routed to the multiplexer. Two of these  
monitor the lock status of the individual synthesizers. The third detects the condition when both the RF and IF  
synthesizers are in a locked state. External circuitry is required to provide a steady DC signal to indicate when  
the PLL is in a locked state. Refer to MUX[3:0] - Multifunction Output Select (R3[23:22]:R0[23:22]) for details on  
how to program the different open-drain analog lock-detect options.  
9.3.8.3 Digital Filtered Lock-Detect Output  
A digital filtered lock-detect status generated from the phase detector is also available on the Ftest/LD output pin  
if selected. The lock-detect digital filter compares the difference between the phases of the inputs to the PFD to  
an RC-generated delay of approximately 15 ns. If the phase error is less than the 15-ns RC delay for 5  
consecutive reference cycles, the PLL enters a locked state (HIGH). Once in lock, the RC delay is changed to  
approximately 30 ns. Once the phase error becomes greater than the 30-ns RC delay, the PLL falls out of lock  
(LOW). When the PLL is in power-down mode, the Ftest/LD output is forced LOW. A flow chart of the digital  
filtered lock-detect output is shown in Figure 30.

NOTE  
The R and N outputs that are routed to the Ftest/LD are R/2 and N/2, respectively. The  
internal /2 circuit is used to provide a 50% duty cycle. Refer to MUX[3:0] - Multifunction  
Output Select (R3[23:22]:R0[23:22]) for more details on how to route the appropriate  
divider output to the Ftest/LD pin.  
9.3.9 Fastlock Output  
The LMX243x fastlock feature allows a faster loop response time during lock aquisition. The loop response time  
(lock time) can be approximately halved if the loop bandwidth is doubled. In order to achieve this, the same gain  
/ phase relationship must be maintained when the loop bandwidth is doubled. When the FLoutRF or OSCout/  
FLoutIF pins are configured as fastLock outputs, an open-drain device is enabled. The open-drain device  
switches in a resistor parallel, and of equal value, to R2 of the external loop filter.  
The loop bandwidth is effectively doubled and stability is maintained. Once locked to the correct frequency, the  
PLL returns to a steady-state condition. The LMX243x offers two methods to achieve fastlock: manual and  
automatic. Manual fastlock is achieved by increasing the charge pump current from 1 mA (RF_CPG/ IF_CPG Bit  
= 0) in the steady-state mode, to 4 mA (RF_CPG/ IF_CPG Bit = 1) in fastlock mode. Automatic fastlock is  
achieved by programming the time-out counter register (RF_TOC/ IF_TOC) with the appropriate number of  
phase comparison cycles that the RF/ IF synthesizer spends in the fastlock state. Refer to R2 Register and R5  
Register for details on how to configure the FLoutRF or OSCout/ FLoutIF output to an open-drain fastlock output.  
9.3.10 Counter Reset  
When the RF_RST/ IF_RST bit is enabled, both the feedback divider (RF_N/ IF_N) and reference divider (RF_R/  
IF_R) are held at their load point. When the device is programmed to normal operation, both the feedback divider  
and reference divider are enabled and resume counting in close alignment to each other. Refer to RF_RST - RF  
Synthesizer Counter Reset (R0[21]) and IF_RST - IF Synthesizer Counter Reset (R3[21]) for more details.  
9.4 Device Functional Modes  
9.4.1 Power Control  
The LMX243x device can be asynchronously powered down when the EN pin is set LOW, independent of the  
state of the power-down bits.  
NOTE  
The OSCout/ FLoutIF pin can still be enabled if the ENosc pin is set HIGH, independent of  
the state of the EN pin. This capability allows the oscillator buffer to be used as a crystal  
oscillator.  
When EN is set HIGH, power down is controlled through the MICROWIRE. The power-down word is comprised  
of the RF_PD/ IF_PD bit, in conjunction with the RF_CPT/ IF_CPT bit. The power-down control word is used to  
set the operating mode of the device. Refer to RF_CPT - RF Synthesizer Charge-Pump Tri-State (R0[20]),  
RF_PD - RF Synthesizer Power Down (R1[23]), IF_CPT - IF Synthesizer Charge-Pump Tri-State (R3[20]), and  
IF_PD - IF Synthesizer Power Down (R4[23]) for details on how to program the RF or IF power-down bits.  
When either synthesizer is powered down, the respective prescaler, phase detector, and charge-pump circuit is  
disabled. The CPoutRF/ CPoutIF, FinRF/ FinIF, and FinRF* pins are all forced to a high impedance state. The  
reference divider and feedback divider circuits are held at the load point during power down. The oscillator buffer  
is disabled when the ENosc pin is set LOW. The OSCin pin is forced to a HIGH state through an approximate  
100-kresistance when this condition exists. When either synthesizer is activated, the respective prescaler,  
phase detector, charge-pump circuit, and the oscillator buffer are all powered up. The feedback divider and

reference divider are held at their load point. This allows the reference oscillator, feedback divider, reference  
divider, and prescaler circuitry to reach proper bias levels. After a finite delay, the feedback and reference  
dividers are enabled and resume counting in close alignment (the maximum error is one prescaler cycle). The  
MICROWIRE control register remains active and capable of loading and latching data while in power-down  
mode.  
9.4.1.1 Synchronous Power-Down Mode  
In this mode, the power-down function is gated by the charge pump. When the device is configured for  
synchronous power down, the device enters the power-down mode upon completion of the next charge-pump  
pulse event.  
9.4.1.2 Asynchronous Power-Down Mode  
In the asynchronous power-down mode, the power-down function is NOT gated by the completion of a charge-  
pump pulse event. When the device is configured for asynchronous power down, the part goes into power-down  
mode immediately.

9.6.4.1 RF_TOC[0:11] - RF Synthesizer Time-Out Counter (R2[14:3])  
The FLoutRF pin can be configured as a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output or as a fastlock output by  
programming the RF_TOC appropriately. When the RF_TOC is programmed from 0 to 3, automatic fastlock is  
disabled, and the FLoutRF pin is either configured as a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output or manual  
fastlock is enabled. When the RF_TOC is programmed to 0, the FLoutRF pin is in tri-state (high impedance)  
mode. The charge-pump current is then the value specified by RF_CPG (R0[19]). When the RF_TOC is  
programmed to 1, the FLoutRF pin is pulled to a LOW state. The charge-pump current is then set to a HIGH gain  
state (RF_CPG bit = 1). This condition is known as the manual fastlock. When the RF_TOC is programmed to 2,  
the FLout_RF pin is again pulled to a LOW state, but this time the charge-pump current is the value specified by  
RF_CPG (R0[19]). When the RF_TOC is programmed to 3, the FLoutRF pin is pulled to a HIGH state. Again, the  
charge-pump current is the value specified by RF_CPG (R0[19]). When the RF_TOC is programmed from 4 to  
4095, fastlock is enabled, and the FLoutRF pin is pulled to a LOW state. Fastlock time outs after the specified  
number of PFD events. At this time, the FLoutRF pin switches to tri-state (high impedance) mode. The value  
programmed into RF_TOC represents the number of PFD events that the RF synthesizer spends in the fastlock  
state.  
NOTE  
Any write to the RF_TOC requires a PFD event on the RF synthesizer to latch the  
contents. This means that writes to the RF_TOC take effect synchronously with the next  
PFD event.

9.6.6.1 IF_TOC[0:11] - IF Synthesizer Time-Out Counter (R5[14:3])  
The OSCout/ FLoutIF pin can be configured as a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output or as a fastlock output  
by programming the IF_TOC appropriately. When the IF_TOC is programmed from 0 to 3, automatic fastlock is  
disabled, and the OSCout/ FLoutIF pin is configured as a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output or manual  
fastlock is enabled. When the IF_TOC is programmed to 0, the OSCout/ FLoutIF pin is in tri-state (high  
impedance) mode. The charge-pump current is then the value specified by IF_CPG (R3[19]). When the IF_TOC  
is programmed to 1, the OSCout/ FLoutIF pin is pulled to a LOW state. The charge-pump current is then set to a  
HIGH gain state (IF_CPG bit = 1). This condition is known as the manual fastlock. When the IF_TOC is  
programmed to 2, the OSCout/ FLout_IF pin is again pulled to a LOW state, but this time the charge-pump  
current is the value specified by IF_CPG (R3[19]). When the IF_TOC is programmed to 3, the OSCout/ FLoutIF  
pin is pulled to a HIGH state. Again, the charge-pump current is the value specified by IF_CPG (R3[19]). When  
the IF_TOC is programmed from 4 to 4095, fastlock is enabled, and the OSCout/ FLoutIF pin is pulled to a LOW  
state. Fastlock timeouts after the specified number of PFD events. At this time, the OSCout/ FLoutIF pin switches  
to tri-state (high impedance) mode. The value programmed into IF_TOC represents the number of PFD events  
that the IF synthesizer spends in the fastlock state.  
NOTE  
Any write to the IF_TOC requires a PFD event on the IF synthesizer to latch the contents.  
This means that writes to the IF_TOC take effect synchronously with the next PFD event.

10 Application and Implementation  
NOTE  
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component  
specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are  
responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should  
validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.  
10.1 Application Information  
The LMX2430 family of devices can be used in a broad class of applications. LMX2430x devices have very low  
current consumption and are well-suited for many lower power applications. Because these devices have two  
PLLs, they can be used to generate two distinct frequencies. However, it is a perfectly valid thing to only use one  
of the PLLs and power down the other side. When only one side is used, be sure to power the other side down,  
but do NOT disconnect the power pins for the unused side as they are shared across several internal blocks.  
When the unused side is powered down, it draws no current, and the counters and charge pump are not running  
or generating any noise and spurs. Figure 33 generally applies to most applications.

11 Power Supply Recommendations  
Low-noise regulators are generally recommended for the supply pins. It is acceptable to have one regulator  
supply the part, although it is best to implement individual bypassing as shown in the Layout Guidelines for the  
best spur performance. The charge-pump pins are typically the most sensitive to supply noise, but the external  
VCO used with this device is likely to be orders of magnitude more sensitive.  
12 Layout  
12.1 Layout Guidelines  
In general, there are two cases for layout:  
1. Use as a single PLL: In this case, all power supply pins must be connected, but for those on the unused PLL,  
bypassing is not necessary, and they can be shorted together. Leave unused outputs unconnected, and do  
not ground them.  
2. Use as a dual PLL: In this case, supply coupling is much more critical as there can be crosstalk between the  
two PLLs. There must be isolation in the form of resistors or inductors between the charge-pump supply pins,  
and decoupling capacitors are more important.
