The LMX2486 device is
a
low-power, high
–
–
RF PLL: 16/17/20/21 or 32/33/36/37
IF PLL: 8/9 or 16/17
performance delta-sigma fractional-N PLL with an
auxiliary integer-N PLL. The device is fabricated
using TI’s advanced process.
•
Advanced Delta Sigma Fractional Compensation
–
–
12-Bit or 22-Bit Selectable Fractional Modulus
With delta-sigma architecture, fractional spurs at
lower offset frequencies are pushed to higher
frequencies outside the loop bandwidth. The ability to
push close in spur and phase noise energy to higher
frequencies is a direct function of the modulator
order. Unlike analog compensation, the digital
feedback technique used in the LMX2486 is highly
resistant to changes in temperature and variations in
wafer processing. The LMX2486 delta-sigma
modulator is programmable up to fourth order, which
allows the designer to select the optimum modulator
order to fit the phase noise, spur, and lock time
requirements of the system.

On-Chip Crystal Reference Frequency Doubler
RF Phase Detector Frequency Up to 50 MHz
2.5-V to 3.6-V Operation With ICC = 8.5 mA
Serial data for programming the LMX2486 is
transferred through a three-line, high-speed (20-MHz)
MICROWIRE interface. The LMX2486 offers fine
frequency resolution, low spurs, fast programming
speed, and a single-word write to change the
frequency. This makes it ideal for direct digital
modulation applications, where the N-counter is
directly modulated with information. The LMX2486 is
available in a 24-lead 4.0 × 4.0 × 0.8 mm WQFN
package.

(3) To measure the in-band spur, the fractional word is chosen such that when reduced to lowest terms, the fractional numerator is one.
The spur offset frequency is chosen to be the comparison frequency divided by the reduced fractional denominator. The loop bandwidth
must be sufficiently wide to negate the impact of the loop filter. Measurement conditions are: Spur Offset Frequency = 10 kHz, Loop
Bandwidth = 100 kHz, Fraction = ½000, VCO Frequency = 3 GHz, Comparison Frequency = 20 MHz, RF_CPG = 7, DITH = 0, and a 4th
Order Modulator (FM = 0). These are relatively consistent over tuning range.
(4) Normalized Phase Noise Contribution is defined as: LN(f) = L(f) – 20log(N) – 10log(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 PLL loop bandwidth, yet large enough to avoid substantial phase noise contribution from the reference source. Measurement
conditions are: Offset Frequency = 11 kHz, Loop Bandwidth = 100 kHz for RF_CPG = 7, Fraction = ½000, VCO Frequency = 3 GHz,
Comparison Frequency = 20 MHz, FM = 0, and DITH = 0.

Figure 18. Setup for Charge Pump Current Measurement
Figure 18 shows the test procedure for testing the RF and IF charge pumps. These tests include absolute current
level, mismatch, and leakage measurement. To measure the charge pump currents, a signal is applied to the
high frequency input pins. The reason for this is to ensure that the phase detector gets enough transitions to be
able to change states. If no signal is applied, it is possible that the charge pump current reading will be low due
to the fact that the duty cycle is not 100%. The OSCin Pin is tied to the supply. The charge pump currents can be
measured by simply programming the phase detector to the necessary polarity. For instance, To measure the RF
charge pump, a 10-MHz signal is applied to the FinRF pin. The source current can be measured by setting the
RF PLL phase detector to a positive polarity, and the sink current can be measured by setting the phase detector
to a negative polarity. The IF PLL currents can be measured in a similar way.
NOTE
The magnitude of the RF PLL charge pump current is controlled by the RF_CPG bit. Once
the charge pump currents are known, the mismatch can be calculated as well.
To measure leakage, the charge pump is set to a TRI-STATE mode by enabling the RF_CPT and IF_CPT bits.
The table below shows a summary of the various charge pump tests.

Sensitivity is defined as the power level limits beyond which the output of the counter being tested is off by 1 Hz
or more of its expected value. It is typically measured over frequency, voltage, and temperature. To test
sensitivity, the MUX[3:0] word is programmed to the appropriate value. The counter value is then programmed to
a fixed value and a frequency counter is set to monitor the frequency of this pin. The expected frequency at the
Ftest/LD pin should be the signal generator frequency divided by twice the corresponding counter value. The
factor of two comes in because the LMX2486 has a flip-flop which divides this frequency by two to make the duty
cycle 50% to make it easier to read with the frequency counter. The frequency counter input impedance should
be set to high impedance. To perform the measurement, the temperature, frequency, and voltage is set to a fixed
value and the power level of the signal is varied.

NOTE
The power level at the part is assumed to be 4 dB less than the signal generator power
level. This accounts for 1 dB for cable losses and 3 dB for the pad.
The power level range where the frequency is correct at the Ftest/LD pin to within 1 Hz accuracy is recorded for
the sensitivity limits. The temperature, frequency, and voltage can be varied to produce a family of sensitivity
curves. Because this is an open-loop test, the charge pump is set to TRI-STATE and the unused side of the PLL
(RF or IF) is powered down when not being tested. For this part, there are actually four frequency input pins,
although there is only one frequency test pin (Ftest/LD). The conditions specific to each pin are shown in above
table.
NOTE
For the RF N counter, a fourth order fractional modulator is used in 22-bit mode with a
fraction of 2097150 / 4194301 is used. The reason for this long fraction is to test the RF N
counter and supporting fractional circuitry as completely as possible.

Figure 21. Input Impedance Measurement
Figure 21 shows the test set-up used for measuring the input impedance for the LMX2486. The DC-blocking
capacitor used between the input SMA connector and the pin being measured must be changed to a 0-Ω
resistor. This procedure applies to the FinRF, FinIF, and OSCin pins. The basic test procedure is to calibrate the
network analyzer, ensure that the part is powered up, and then measure the input impedance. The network
analyzer can be calibrated by using either calibration standards or by soldering resistors directly to the evaluation
board. An open can be implemented by putting no resistor, a short can be implemented by soldering a 0-Ω
resistor as close as possible to the pin being measured, and a short can be implemented by soldering two 100-Ω
resistors in parallel as close as possible to the pin being measured. Calibration is done with the PLL removed
from the PCB. This requires the use of a clamp down fixture that may not always be generally available. If no
clamp down fixture is available, then this procedure can be done by calibrating up to the point where the DC-
blocking capacitor usually is, and then implementing port extensions with the network analyzer. The 0-Ω resistor
is added back for the actual measurement. Once the set-up is calibrated, it is necessary to ensure that the PLL is
powered up. This can be done by toggling the power-down bits (RF_PD and IF_PD) and observing that the
current consumption indeed increases when the bit is disabled. Sometimes it may be necessary to apply a signal
to the OSCin pin to program the part. If this is necessary, disconnect the signal once it is established that the

part is powered up. It is useful to know the input impedance of the PLL for the purposes of debugging RF
problems and designing matching networks. Another use of knowing this parameter is make the trace width on
the PCB such that the input impedance of this trace matches the real part of the input impedance of the PLL
frequency of operation. In general, it is good practice to keep trace lengths short and make designs that are
relatively resistant to variations in the input impedance of the PLL.

8.3 Feature Description
8.3.1 TCXO, Oscillator Buffer, and R Counter
The oscillator buffer must be driven single-ended by a signal source, such as a TCXO. The OSCout pin is
included to provide a buffered output of this input signal and is active when the OSC_OUT bit is set to one. The
ENOSC pin can be also pulled high to ensure that the OSCout pin is active, regardless of the status of the
registers in the LMX2486.
The R counter divides this TCXO frequency down to the comparison frequency.
8.3.2 Phase Detector
The maximum phase detector operating frequency for the IF PLL is straightforward, but it is a little more involved
for the RF PLL because it is fractional. The maximum phase detector frequency for the LMX2486 RF PLL is 50
MHz. However, this is not possible in all circumstances due to illegal divide ratios of the N counter. The crystal
reference frequency also limits the phase detector frequency, although the doubler helps with this limitation.
There are trade-offs in choosing the phase detector frequency. If this frequency is run higher, then phase noise
will be lower, but lock time may be increased due to cycle slipping and the capacitors in the loop filter may
become rather large.
8.3.3 Charge Pump
For the majority of the time, the charge pump output is high impedance, and the only current through this pin is
the TRI-STATE leakage. However, it does put out fast correction pulses that have a width that is proportional to
the phase error presented at the phase detector.
The charge pump converts the phase error presented at the phase detector into a correction current. The
magnitude of this current is theoretically constant, but the duty cycle is proportional to the phase error. For the IF
PLL, this current is not programmable, but for the RF PLL it is programmable in 16 steps. Also, the RF PLL
allows for a higher charge pump current to be used when the PLL is locking to reduce the lock time.

Feature Description (continued)
8.3.4 Loop Filter
The loop filter design can be rather involved. In addition to the regular constraints and design parameters, delta-
sigma PLLs have the additional constraint that the order of the loop filter should be one greater than the order of
the delta sigma modulator. This rule of thumb comes from the requirement that the loop filter must roll off the
delta sigma noise at 20 dB/decade faster than it rises. However, because the noise can not have infinite power, it
must eventually roll off. If the loop bandwidth is narrow, this requirement may not be necessary. For the purposes
of discussion in this data sheet, the pole of the loop filter at 0 Hz is not counted. So a second order filter has 3
components, a 3rd order loop filter has 5 components, and the 4th order loop filter has 7 components. Although a
5th order loop filter is theoretically necessary for use with a 4th order modulator, typically a 4th order filter is used
in this case. The loop filter design, especially for higher orders can be rather involved, but there are many
simulation tools and references available, such as the one given at the end of the functional description block.
8.3.5 N Counters and High Frequency Input Pins
The N counter divides the VCO frequency down to the comparison frequency. Because prescalers are used,
there are limitations on how small the N value can be. The N counters are discussed in greater depth in the
programming section. Because the input pins to these counters (FinRF and FinIF) are high frequency, layout
considerations are important.
8.3.5.1 High Frequency Input Pins, FinRF and FinIF
It is generally recommended that the VCO output go through a resistive pad and then through a DC-blocking
capacitor before it gets to these high frequency input pins. If the trace length is sufficiently short (< 1/10th of a
wavelength), then the pad may not be necessary, but a series resistor of about 39 Ω is still recommended to
isolate the PLL from the VCO. The DC-blocking capacitor should be chosen at least to be 27 pF. It may turn out
that the frequency is above the self-resonant frequency of the capacitor, but because the input impedance of the
PLL tends to be capacitive, it actually is a benefit to exceed the tune frequency. The pad and the DC-blocking
capacitor should be placed as close to the PLL as possible
8.3.5.2 Complementary High Frequency Pin, FinRF*
These inputs may be used to drive the PLL differentially, but it is very common to drive the PLL in a single ended
fashion. A shunt capacitor should be placed at the FinRF* pin. The value of this capacitor should be chosen such
that the impedance, including the ESR of the capacitor, is as close to an AC short as possible at the operating
frequency of the PLL. 100 pF is a typical value.
8.3.6 Digital Lock Detect Operation
The RF PLL digital lock detect circuitry compares the difference between the phase of the inputs of the phase
detector to a RC generated delay of ε. To indicate a locked state (Lock = HIGH) the phase error must be less
than the ε RC delay for 5 consecutive reference cycles. Once in lock (Lock = HIGH), the RC delay is changed to
approximately δ. To indicate an out of lock state (Lock = LOW), the phase error must become greater δ. The
values of ε and δ are dependent on which PLL is used and are shown in the table below:
Table 6. Programmable Lock Detect Settings
PLL
RF
IF
ε
δ
10 ns
15 ns
20 ns
30 ns
When the PLL is in the power-down mode and the Ftest/LD pin is programmed for the lock detect function, it is
forced LOW. The accuracy of this circuit degrades at higher comparison frequencies. To compensate for this, the
DIV4 word should be set to one if the comparison frequency exceeds 20 MHz. The function of this word is to
divide the comparison frequency presented to the lock detect circuit by 4.
NOTE
If the MUX[3:0] word is set such as to view lock detect for both PLLs, an unlocked (LOW)
condition is shown whenever either one of the PLLs is determined to be out of lock.

8.3.7 Cycle Slip Reduction and Fastlock
The LMX2486 offers both cycle slip reduction (CSR) and Fastlock with timeout counter support. This means that
it requires no additional programming overhead to use them. It is generally recommended that the charge pump
current in the steady-state be 8X or less to use cycle slip reduction, and 4X or less in steady-state to use
Fastlock. The next step is to decide between using Fastlock or CSR. This determination can be made based on
the ratio of the comparison frequency (fCOMP) to loop bandwidth (BW).

8.3.7.1 Cycle Slip Reduction (CSR)
Cycle slip reduction works by reducing the comparison frequency during frequency acquisition while keeping the
same loop bandwidth, thereby reducing the ratio of the comparison frequency to the loop bandwidth. In cases
where the ratio of the comparison frequency exceeds about 100 times the loop bandwidth, cycle slipping can
occur and significantly degrade lock times. The greater this ratio, the greater the benefit of CSR. This is typically
the case of high comparison frequencies. In circumstances where there is not a problem with cycle slipping, CSR
provides no benefit. There is a glitch when CSR is disengaged, but because CSR should be disengaged long
before the PLL is actually in lock, this glitch is not an issue. A good rule of thumb for CSR disengagement is to
do this at the peak time of the transient response. Because this time is typically much sooner than Fastlock
should be disengaged, it does not make sense to use CSR and Fastlock in combination.
8.3.7.2 Fastlock
Fastlock works by increasing the loop bandwidth only during frequency acquisition. In circumstances where the
comparison frequency is less than or equal to 2 MHz, Fastlock may provide a benefit beyond what CSR can
offer. Because Fastlock also reduces the ratio of the comparison frequency to the loop bandwidth, it may provide
a significant benefit in cases where the comparison frequency is above 2 MHz. However, CSR can usually
provide an equal or larger benefit in these cases, and can be implemented without using an additional resistor.
The reason for this restriction on frequency is that Fastlock has a glitch when it is disengaged. As the time of
engagement for Fastlock decreases and becomes on the order of the fast lock time, this glitch grows and limits
the benefits of Fastlock. This effect becomes worse at higher comparison frequencies. There is always the option
of reducing the comparison frequency at the expense of phase noise to satisfy this constraint on comparison
frequency. Despite this glitch, there is still a net improvement in lock time using Fastlock in these circumstances.
When using Fastlock, it is also recommended that the steady-state charge pump state be 4X or less. Also,
Fastlock was originally intended only for second order filters, so when implementing it with higher order filters,
the third and fourth poles can not be too close in, or it will not be possible to keep the loop filter well optimized
when the higher charge pump current and Fastlock resistor are engaged.
8.3.7.3 Using Cycle Slip Reduction (CSR) to Avoid Cycle Slipping
Once it is decided that CSR is to be used, the cycle slip reduction factor needs to be chosen. The available
factors are 1/2, 1/4, and 1/16. To preserve the same loop characteristics, TI recommends that Equation 4 be
satisfied:
(Fastlock Charge Pump Current) / (Steady-State Charge Pump Current) = CSR
(4)
To satisfy this constraint, the maximum charge pump current in steady-state is 8X for a CSR of 1/2, 4X for a
CSR of 1/4, and 1X for a CSR of 1/16. Because the PLL phase noise is better for higher charge pump currents, it
makes sense to choose CSR only as large as necessary to prevent cycle slipping. Choosing it larger than this
will not improve lock time, and will result in worse phase noise.
Consider an example where the desired loop bandwidth in steady-state is 100 kHz and the comparison
frequency is 20 MHz. This yields a ratio of 200. Cycle slipping may be present, but would not be too severe if it
was there. If a CSR factor of 1/2 is used, this would reduce the ratio to 100 during frequency acquisition, which is
probably sufficient. A charge pump current of 8X could be used in steady-state, and a factor of 16X could be
used during frequency acquisition. This yields a ratio of 1/2, which is equal to the CSR factor and this satisfies
the above constraint. In this circumstance, it could also be decided to just use 16X charge pump current all the
time, because it would probably have better phase noise, and the degradation in lock time would not be too
severe.

8.3.7.4 Using Fastlock to Improve Lock Times
Figure 23. Loop Filter with Fastlock Resistor
Once it is decided that Fastlock is to be used, the loop bandwidth multiplier, K, is needed to determine the
theoretical impact of Fastlock on the loop bandwidth and the resistor value, R2p, that is switched in parallel
during Fastlock. This ratio is calculated in Equation 5:
K = (Fastlock Charge Pump Current) / (Steady-State Charge Pump Current)
(5)

The above table shows how to calculate the Fastlock resistor and theoretical lock time improvement, once the
ratio , K, is known. This all assumes a second order filter (not counting the pole at 0 Hz). However, it is generally
recommended that the loop filter order be one greater than the order of the delta sigma modulator, which means
that a second order filter is never recommended. In this case, the value for R2p is typically about 80% of what it
would be for a second order filter. Because the Fastlock disengagement glitch gets larger and it is harder to keep
the loop filter optimized as the K value becomes larger, designing for the largest possible value for K usually, but
not always yields the best improvement in lock time. To get a more accurate estimate requires more simulation
tools, or trial and error.
8.3.7.5 Capacitor Dielectric Considerations for Lock Time
The LMX2486 has a high fractional modulus and high charge pump gain for the lowest possible phase noise.
One consideration is that the reduced N value and higher charge pump may cause the capacitors in the loop
filter to become larger in value. For larger capacitor values, it is common to have a trade-off between capacitor
dielectric quality and physical size. Using film capacitors or NPO/COG capacitors yields the best possible lock
times, where as using X7R or Z5R capacitors can increase lock time by 0 – 500%. However, it is a general
tendency that designs that use a higher compare frequency tend to be less sensitive to the effects of capacitor
dielectrics. Although the use of lesser quality dielectric capacitors may be unavoidable in many circumstances,
allowing a larger footprint for the loop filter capacitors, using a lower charge pump current, and reducing the
fractional modulus are all ways to reduce capacitor values. Capacitor dielectrics have very little impact on phase
noise and spurs.
8.3.8 Fractional Spur and Phase Noise Controls
Control of the fractional spurs is more of an art than an exact science. The first differentiation that needs to be
made is between primary fractional and sub-fractional spurs. The primary fractional spurs are those that occur at
increments of the channel spacing only. The sub-fractional spurs are those that occur at a smaller resolution than
the channel spacing, usually one-half or one-fourth. There are trade-offs between fractional spurs, sub-fractional
spurs, and phase noise. The rules of thumb presented in this section are just that. There will be exceptions. The
bits that impact the fractional spurs are FM and DITH, and these bits should be set in this order.

SNAS324B –JANUARY 2006–REVISED JANUARY 2016

The first step to do is choose FM, for the delta sigma modulator order. TI recommends to start with FM = 3 for a
third order modulator and use strong dithering. In general, there is a trade-off between primary and sub-fractional
spurs. Choosing the highest order modulator (FM = 0 for 4th order) typically provides the best primary fractional
spurs, but the worst sub-fractional spurs. Choosing the lowest modulator order (FM = 2 for 2nd order), typically
gives the worst primary fractional spurs, but the best sub-fractional spurs. Choosing FM = 3, for a 3rd order
modulator is a compromise.
The second step is to choose DITH, for dithering. Dithering has a very small impact on primary fractional spurs,
but a much larger impact on sub-fractional spurs. The only problem is that it can add a few dB of phase noise, or
even more if the loop bandwidth is very wide. Disabling dithering (DITH = 0), provides the best phase noise, but
the sub-fractional spurs are worst (except when the fractional numerator is 0, and in this case, they are the best).
Choosing strong dithering (DITH = 2) significantly reduces sub-fractional spurs, if not eliminating them
completely, but adds the most phase noise. Weak dithering (DITH = 1) is a compromise.
The third step is to tinker with the fractional word. Although 1/10 and 400/4000 are mathematically the same,
expressing fractions with much larger fractional numerators often improve the fractional spurs. Increasing the
fractional denominator only improves spurs to a point. A good practical limit could be to keep the fractional
denominator as large as possible, but not to exceed 4095, so it is not necessary to use the extended fractional
numerator or denominator.

Fastlock, and many other topics, visit http://www.ti.com. Here there is the EasyPLL
simulation tool and an online reference called PLL Performance, Simulation, and Design.
8.4 Device Functional Modes
8.4.1 Power Pins, Power-Down, and Power-Up Modes
TI recommends that all of the power pins be filtered with a series 18-Ω resistor and then placing two capacitors
shunt to ground, thus creating a low pass filter. Although it makes sense to use large capacitor values in theory,
the ESR (Equivalent Series Resistance) is greater for larger capacitors. For optimal filtering minimize the sum of
the ESR and theoretical impedance of the capacitor. It is therefore recommended to provide two capacitors of
very different sizes for the best filtering. 1 µF and 100 pF are typical values. The small capacitor should be
placed as close as possible to the pin.
The power down state of the LMX2486 is controlled by many factors. The one factor that overrides all other
factors is the CE pin. If this pin is low, the part will be powered down. Asserting a high logic level on this pin is
necessary to power up the chip, however, there are other bits in the programming registers that can override this
and put the PLL back in a power down state. Provided that the voltage on the CE pin is high, programming the
RF_PD and IF_PD bits to zero ensures that the part will be powered up. Programming either one of these bits to
one will power down the appropriate section of the synthesizer, provided that the ATPU bit does not override this.

8.5 Programming
8.5.1 General Programming Information
The 24-bit data registers are loaded through a MICROWIRE Interface. These data registers are used to program
the R counter, the N counter, and the internal mode control latches. The data format of a typical 24-bit data
register is shown below. The control bits CTL [3:0] decode the register address. On the rising edge of LE, data
stored in the shift register is loaded into one of the appropriate latches (selected by address bits). Data is shifted
in MSB first.
NOTE
It is best to program the N counter last, because doing so initializes the digital lock
detector and Fastlock circuitry. Initialize means it resets the counters, but it does NOT
program values into these registers. The exception is when 22-bit is not being used. In this
case, it is not necessary to program the R7 register.

8.5.1.2 Control Register Content Map
Because the LMX2486 registers are complicated, they are organized into two groups, basic and advanced. The
first four registers are basic registers that contain critical information necessary for the PLL to achieve lock. The
last 5 registers are for features that optimize spur, phase noise, and lock time performance. The next page
shows these registers.
Although it is highly recommended that the user eventually take advantage of all the modes of the LMX2486, the
quick start register map is shown in order for the user to get the part up and running quickly using only those bits
critical for basic functionality. The following default conditions for this programming state are a third order delta-

the purposes of modulation. Consult the tables below for valid operating ranges for each prescaler.

and will override the RF_PD bit. The order of precedence is as follows. First, if the CE pin is LOW, then the PLL
will be powered down. Provided this is not the case, the PLL will be powered up if the ATPU bit says to do so,
regardless of the state of the RF_PD bit. After the CE pin and the ATPU bit are considered, then the RF_PD bit
then takes control of the power down function for the RF PLL.

8.6.3.2 IF_PD -- IF Power Down Bit
When this bit is set to 0, the IF PLL operates normally. When it is set to 1, the IF PLL powers down and the
output of the IF PLL charge pump is set to a TRI-STATE mode. If the ATPU bit is set and register R0 is written
to, the IF_PD will be reset to 0 and the IF PLL will be powered up. If the CE pin is held low, the IF PLL will be
powered down, overriding the IF_PD bit.

8.6.4.3 Access -- Register Access Word
It is mandatory that the first 5 registers R0-R4 be programmed. The programming of registers R5-R7 is optional.
The ACCESS[3:0] bits determine which additional registers must be programmed. Any one of these registers can
be individually programmed. According to the table below, when the state of a register is in default mode, all the
bits in that register are forced to a default state and it is not necessary to program this register. When the register
is programmable, it needs to be programmed through the MICROWIRE. Using this register access technique, the
programming required is reduced up to 50%.

8.6.5.7 FM[1:0] -- Fractional Mode
Determines the order of the delta-sigma modulator. Higher order delta-sigma modulators reduce the spur levels
closer to the carrier by pushing this noise to higher frequency offsets from the carrier. In general, the order of the
loop filter should be at least one greater than the order of the delta-sigma modulator to allow for sufficient roll-off.

8.6.5.8 DITH[1:0] -- Dithering Control
Dithering is a technique used to spread out the spur energy. Enabling dithering can reduce the main fractional
spurs, but can also give rise to a family of smaller spurs. Whether dithering helps or hurts is application specific.
Enabling the dithering may also increase the phase noise. In most cases where the fractional numerator is zero,
dithering usually degrades performance.
Dithering tends to be most beneficial in applications where there is insufficient filtering of the spurs. This often
occurs when the loop bandwidth is very wide or a higher order delta-sigma modulator is used. Dithering tends
not to impact the main fractional spurs much, but has a much larger impact on the sub-fractional spurs. If it is
decided that dithering will be used, best results will be obtained when the fractional denominator is at least 1000.

8.6.5.9 ATPU -- PLL Automatic Power Up
When this bit is set to 1, both the RF and IF PLL power up when the R0 register is written to. When the R0
register is written to, the PD_RF and PD_IF bits are changed to 0 in the PLL registers. The exception to this case
is when the CE pin is low. In this case, the ATPU function is disabled.

The RF_TOC[13:0] word controls the operation of the RF Fastlock circuitry as well as the function of the
FLoutRF output pin. When this word is set to a value between 0 and 3, the RF Fastlock circuitry is disabled and
the FLoutRF pin operates as a general-purpose CMOS TRI-STATE I/O. When RF_TOC is set to a value
between 4 and 16383, the RF Fastlock mode is enabled and the FLoutRF pin is used as the RF Fastlock output
pin. The value programmed into the RF_TOC[13:0] word represents two times the number of phase detector
comparison cycles the RF synthesizer will spend in the Fastlock state.

8.6.8.1 DIV4 -- RF Digital Lock Detect Divide By 4
Because the digital lock detect function is based on a phase error, it becomes more difficult to detect a locked
condition for larger comparison frequencies. When this bit is enabled, it subdivides the RF PLL comparison
frequency (it does not apply to the IF comparison frequency) presented to the digital lock detect circuitry by 4.
This enables this circuitry to work at higher comparison frequencies. TI recommends that this bit be enabled
whenever the comparison frequency exceeds 20 MHz and RF digital lock detect is being used.
8.6.8.2 IF_RST -- IF PLL Counter Reset
When this bit is enabled, the IF PLL N and R counters are reset, and the charge pump is put in a TRI-STATE
condition. This feature should be disabled for normal operation.
NOTE
a counter reset is applied whenever the chip is powered up through software or CE pin.

9 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.
9.1 Application Information
This device ideal for use in a broad class of applications, especially those requiring low current consumption and
low fractional spurs. For applications that only need a single PLL, the unused PLL can be powered down and will
not draw any extra current or generate any spurs or crosstalk.

10 Power Supply Recommendations
Low noise regulators are generally recommended for the supply pins. It is OK to have one regulator supply the
part, although it is best to put individual bypassing as shown in the Layout Guidelines for the best spur
performance. If only using one PLL and not both DO NOT DISCONNECT OR GROUND power pins! For
instance, the IF PLL supply pins also supply other blocks than just the IF PLL and they must be connected.
However, if the IF PLL is disabled, then one can eliminate all bypass capacitors from these pins.
11 Layout
11.1 Layout Guidelines
The critical pin is the high freqeuncy input pin that should have a short trace. In general, try to keep the ground
and power planes 20 mils or more farther away from vias to supply pins to ensure that no spur energy can
couple to them.
