FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Input Data
Operating Frequency Divider
(N-counter) Structure
The input data should be specified keeping in mind
the VDD2 supply. The data is input using CLK,
DATA and LE pins into the shift register and latch
which operate from the VDD2 supply. However, the
VDD1 supply level can vary.
The operating frequency divider generates a
comparator frequency signal (FV), which is input to
the phase comparator, by dividing the VCO signal
input on pin FIN.
The operating frequency divider is comprised by
dual modulus prescalers, a 5-bit swallow counter and
a 11-bit main counter.
The settings for the prescaler (P and P + 1), swallow
counter (S) and main counter (M) are related to the
comparator frequency divider ratio by:
N = (P + 1) × S + P(M – S)
= PM + S
The counter value ranges are P = 32, P + 1 = 33, S =
0 to 31, and M = 32 to 2047. Therefore, the operating
frequency divider ratio range N is 1056 to 65535.
Reference Frequency Divider
(R-counter) Structure
The control data input uses a 3-line 17-bit serial
interface comprising the clock (CLK), data input
(DATA) and latch enable (LE). The data is input with
the MSB first. The last (17th) bit is used as the latch
select control bit. Data is written to the shift register
on the rising edge of the clock signal. Accordingly,
the data should change state on the falling edge of
the clock signal. Data is transferred from the shift
register to the latch when the latch enable (LE)
signal goes HIGH. Accordingly, the latch enable
signal should be held LOW while data is being
written to the shift register.
The clock and data input signals are both ignored
when the latch enable signal goes HIGH. Also, the
CLK, DATA and LE inputs should be tied LOW
when not setting data.
The reference frequency divider generates a
comparator frequency signal (FR), which is input to
the phase comparator, by dividing the reference
frequency input either from an external signal on
XIN or from a crystal connected between XIN and
XOUT.
The reference frequency divider is comprised by a
fixed divide-by-8 prescaler and an 13-bit reference
counter.
The settings for the prescaler (A = 8) and reference
counter (R) are related to the reference frequency
divider ratio by:
R = AB = 8B
The counter value ranges are A = 8 and B = 5 to
8191. Therefore, the reference frequency divider
ratio range is R = 40 to 65528.

Input data example
If the VCO output (fVCO) is trebled, the output
frequency (fLO) is 251.3 MHz, and the channel
bandwidth (fCH: operating frequency (fR) × 3) is 25
kHz, then the comparator frequency divider ratio N

Therefore, the swallow counter count is 4 (00100)2

in figure 3.

Boost-up Signal
Operating principles
If the PLL momentarily loses lock as a result of a
phase error, a level signal is output on pin DB. When
the PLL is operating in lock, output DB goes high
impedance.
When the PLL is operating with a phase error within
fixed tolerance, an internal WINDOWN signal is
generated, as shown in figure 6. This signal is in sync
with the N counter output signal (FV) and is 64
cycles of the FIN input period in length centered
about the falling edge of FV.
When the PLL starts up, the signal on DB charges
the low-pass filter capacitor in anticipation of highspeed locking. After the boost-up signal is output and
the PLL phase error comes within tolerance, the
boost-up circuit stops and operation continues when
the 2 supplies (VDD1, VDD2) are applied and OPR
goes HIGH once only. After the boost-up circuit
stops, new data is written and the boost-up signal is
not output even if the VCO is not in lock.
If the phase detector error correction signal occurs
before the WINDOWN LOW-level pulsewidth, the
HIGH-level output from DB continues. However, if
the error correction signal occurs wholly within the
WINDOWN LOW-level pulsewidth, DB goes high
impedance and the boost-up circuit operation stops.
The above description applies when the error
correction signal is revising up. When the error
correction signal is revising down, DB goes LOW.
