Circuit Description
1.1
Functional Description
Data Sheet
The ZL10039 is a single chip wide band direct conversion tuner with integral RF bypass optimised for digital
satellite receiver systems. It provides excellent performance in applications where maximum sensitivity is required.
The device offers a highly integrated solution for a satellite tuner incorporating a low phase noise PLL frequency
synthesiser, the quadrature down converter, a fully integrated local oscillator, and programmable baseband channel
filters. A minimal number of additional peripheral components are required. The crystal reference source can be
also used as the reference for the demodulator.
An I2C compatible bus interface controls all of the tuner functionality.
The ZL10039 contains both hardware and software power down modes.
1.2
1.2.1
Signal Path
RF Input
The tuner RF input signal at a frequency of 950 – 2150 MHz is fed to the ZL10039 RF input pre-amplifier stage.
The signal handling is designed such that no tracking filter is required to offer immunity to input signal composite
overload.
The RF input amplifier feeds an AGC stage, which provides RF gain control. There is additional gain adjustment in
the baseband section. The total AGC gain range will guarantee an operating dynamic range of –92 to –10 dBm.
The RF AGC in the ZL10039 is a continually variable gain control stage, and provides the main system AGC set
under control of the analogue AGC signal generated by the demodulator.
The analogue RF AGC is optimised for S/N and S/I performance across the full dynamic range. Typical RF AGC
characteristic and variation of IIP3, IIP2 and NF are shown in Section 8 - Typical Performance Curves.
The output of the AGC stage is coupled to the quadrature mixer where the RF signal is mixed with quadrature local
oscillator signals generated by the on-board local oscillator.
1.2.2
Baseband
The outputs of the quadrature down converter are passed through the baseband filters followed by a programmable
baseband gain stage.
The baseband paths are DC coupled. An integrated DC correction loop prevents saturation due to local oscillator
self-mixing in the converter section. No external components are required for dc correction.
The baseband filters are 5th order Chebychev and provide excellent matching in both amplitude and phase
between the I and Q channels. The filters are fully programmable for 3 dB bandwidths from 6 MHz to 43 MHz. The
recommended filter bandwidth is related to the required symbol rate by the following equation.
− 3dBFilterBandwidth fc =
SymbolRate × 1.35
2 × 0.8
This equation makes no allowance for LNB tuning offset at low symbol rates < 10MS/s.
The baseband filter uses an automatic tuning algorithm to calibrate the filter bandwidth to the programmed
requirement. This removes any variation due to operating conditions and process variations. The automatic tuning
6

ZL10039
Data Sheet
algorithm uses a frequency locked loop, which locks the filter bandwidth to a reference frequency derived from the
crystal reference input frequency. Further details are provided in the programming section.
The filters are followed by a programmable gain stage. This provides twelve 1.5 dB gain steps. These can be used
for optimising performance at different symbol rates and for adjusting the output level in applications not using
ZL10313.
The differential outputs of each channel stage are designed for low impedance drive capability and low
intermodulation.
1.2.3
RF bypass
The ZL10039 provides a single ended bypass function, which can be used for driving a second receiver module.
The electrical characteristics of the RF input are unchanged whether the RF bypass is enabled or disabled.
The RF Bypass powers up in the enabled state and can also operate with the remainder of the device in power
down modes.
1.3
1.3.1
Local Oscillator Generation
On Chip VCO
The local oscillator on the ZL10039 is fully integrated. It consists of three independently selectable oscillator stages
with sub bands. The three oscillators and sub-bands are designed to provide optimum phase noise performance
over the required tuning range of 950 to 2150 MHz, over operating conditions and process variations.
The local oscillators operate at a harmonic of the required local oscillator frequency and are divided down to the
required LO frequency. The required divider ratio is automatically selected by the local oscillator control logic.
The oscillators are fully controlled by an on-chip automatic tuning algorithm. The user simply programs the required
LO frequency. The control logic automatically selects the required VCO and sub band to give optimum
performance. VCO settling time is minimized as different tuning algorithms are used, depending on the magnitude
of the LO frequency change required. This choice of algorithm is also automatic and does not require user
intervention.
The oscillator control logic tracks any changes in operating conditions and will retune the VCO if necessary,
however hysteresis is built into this function to avoid unnecessary switching.
All oscillator components are included on the chip including the VCO varactor. An external loop filter is required as
part of the PLL frequency synthesiser.
1.3.2
PLL Frequency Synthesiser
The fully integrated PLL frequency synthesiser section controls the LO frequency. The only external requirements
are crystal reference and simple second order loop filter. The PLL can be operated up to comparison frequencies of
2 MHz enabling a wide loop bandwidth for maximizing the close in phase noise performance.
The local oscillator input signal is multiplexed from the active oscillator to an internal preamplifier, which provides
gain and reverse isolation from the divider signals. The output of the preamplifier provides the input to a 15-bit fully
programmable divider with MN+A architecture incorporating a dual modulus 16/17 prescaler.
The output of the programmable divider is fed to the phase comparator where it is compared in both phase and
frequency domain with the comparison frequency. This frequency is derived either from the on-board crystal
controlled oscillator or from an external reference source. In both cases the reference frequency is divided down to
the comparison frequency by the reference divider, which is programmable into 1 of 15 ratios.

Zarlink Semiconductor Inc.
ZL10039
Data Sheet
The output of the phase detector feeds a charge pump which combined with an external loop filter integrates the
current pulses to control the varactor voltage. The charge pump current is automatically varied by the VCO control
logic to compensate for VCO gain variations that are dependent on selected sub band. The varactor control voltage
is externally coupled to the oscillator section through the input pin Vvar.
1.4
I2C Interface
All programming for the ZL10039 is controlled by an I2C data bus and is compatible with 3V3 standard mode
formats.
Data and Clock are fed in on the SDA and SCL lines respectively as defined by I2C bus format. The device can
either accept data (write mode), or send data (read mode). The LSB of the address byte (R/W) sets the device into
write mode if it is logic ‘0’, and read mode if it is logic ‘1’. The I2C address is fixed at C0 (Write)/C1(Read) in hex
format.
The ZL10039 contains 16 control registers. These registers are read/write registers. These registers are addressed
as sub-addresses on the I2C bus. Registers can be addressed as random access single write/read or random
access sequential write and read as shown below.

Register Map and Programming
The register map is arranged as 16 byte-wide read/write registers grouped by functional block. The registers may
be written to and read-back from either sequentially (for lowest overhead) or specifically (for maximum flexibility).
A significant number of bits are used for test and evaluation purposes only and are fixed at logic ‘0’ or ‘1’. The
correct programming for these test bits is shown in the table below. It is essential that these values are programmed
for correct operation. When the contents of the registers are read back the value of some bits may have changed
from their programmed value. This is due to the internal automatic control which can update registers. Any changes
can be ignored.
Read only bits are marked with an asterisk (*). Any data written to these bits will be ignored.
Registers are set to default settings on applying power. These conditions are shown below and in the applicable
tables.

Table 6 - Charge Pump Currents
The charge pump current is automatically increased to the next setting dependent on the VCO sub band that has
been selected by the VCO tuning algorithm. This is to compensate for changes in VCO gain and so provide
consistent PLL performance across all sub bands. Programming the highest charge pump value will not allow the
value to be incremented, therefore this value should not be programmed.
The value read back for the charge pump current is the actual value in use for the selected sub band.

The LF and SF bits disable the baseband filter adjustment. It is recommended that these bits are set after
programming the filter bandwidth to prevent interactions within the circuit. These bits must be reset to enable the
baseband filter bandwidth to be reprogrammed.
The BR[4:0] bits set the crystal reference divide ratio. This effectively determines the resolution setting of the
baseband filters. The baseband filter settings (BF[7:0]) can be calculated from the following equation.
BF[7 : 0] =

The PD bit is the ‘software’ power down control. When this bit is set to 1, all the analogue blocks are powered down
with the exception of the Crystal Oscillator. The I2C interface will remain active and can still be used to enable the
RF Bypass.
Setting the SLEEP input pin high also invokes ‘software’ power down with the addition of powering down the Crystal
Oscillator to produce ‘hardware’ power down. The RF Bypass will remain active if it has been previously
programmed on the I2C bus. Note that in ‘hardware’ power down, the I2C interface does not operate.
The CLR bit re-triggers the power-on-reset function. This resets all register values to their power-on reset default
value. The CLR bit is itself cleared. Note that the chip-wide reset will reset the I2C Interface and the current write
sequence used to set this bit will not be acknowledged.
The P0 bit controls the state of the output port according to Table 22.

Zarlink Semiconductor Inc.
Data Sheet
ZL10039
Data Sheet
Figure 4 shows a typical application using a ZL10313 as a demodulator. This is available as a reference design
(ZLE10541) from Zarlink Semiconductor.
The design uses a standard two layer board. All components are mounted on the upper surface with the lower
surface as a ground plane. The RF input does not require any external matching components although a coupling
capacitor is required. The RF bypass output requires a series inductor for optimum matching. Good decoupling
should be used - these components should be mounted as close to the device as practicable.
All ground contact to the ZL10039 is to the ground ‘paddle’ on the underside of the package. This must be soldered
fully to the board to achieve best thermal and electrical contact. It is recommended that an array of vias (4 x 4) is
used to achieve good contact to the ground plane underneath the device
A common crystal reference can be used for the tuner and demodulator. The crystal oscillator capacitors are
optimised for a 10.111 MHz reference.
Sensitivity is optimised by minimizing interaction from digital signal activity in the demodulator. This is achieved by
filtering in the agc control, and filter networks in the baseband I and Q signals between the demodulator and
ZL10039. These networks should be mounted as close to the ZL10039 as possible.
The typical performance from the reference design is shown in the table below:

The bandwidth of the baseband filter is given by the following expression:
fbw =
fxtal
x (BF + 1)
BR x 5.088
Equation 1
where:
fbw
=
the filter bandwidth in MHz within the range 8 MHz to 43 MHz.
fxtal
=
crystal oscillator frequency in MHz.
BR
=
decimal value of the bits BR[4:0], range 1-31.
(BR = 0 is not allowed)
BF
=
decimal value of the register bits BF[7:0], range 0 - 255.
The above equation can be re-arranged as follows
BR 

BF =  fbw x 5.088 x
 −1
fxtal


Equation 2
It is recommended that BR should be set so that
fxtal
BR
is approximately 1 MHz
This sets the bandwidth resolution to approximately 200kHz
The value of BF can now be calculated from Equation 2 and rounded to the nearest integer:
Example
Conditions: fxtal = 10.111 MHz, fbw = 26.5 MHz
Choose BR = 10
BF =
26.5 x 5.088 x 10
− 1 = 132.35
10.111
BF = 132
The actual filter bandwidth is therefore given by:
fbw =
1
10.111
x (132 + 1) x
= 26.43 MHz

Note 9:
Two input tones at fc+50 and fc+100 MHz at -18 dBm, generating output IM product at fc.
Note 10: IM2 product from two input tones at 1.05 and 1.1 GHz at -18 dBm, generating IM product at 2150 MHz.
Note 11: Crystal specifications vary considerably and significantly effect the choice of external oscillator capacitor values. Each
application may require separate consideration for optimum performance.
