Description
The SP5848 is a dual PLL frequency synthesizer
controlled by a 3-wire bus optimised for application in
double conversion tuners.
Each synthesiser loop within the SP5848 is
independently addressable and contains an RF
programmable divider, phase/frequency detector and
charge pump/loop amplifier section; a common
reference frequency oscillator and divider chain is
provided, whose ratios for each loop are independently
programmable.
Both synthesisers are optimised for low phase noise
performance and in addition synthesiser 2 is capable of
operation with a low comparison frequency.

Functional Description
Programming Mode
The SP5848 contains two PLL frequency synthesiser
loops, each independently programmable from a 3-wire
bus. The device is optimised for application in double
conversion tuners where synthesiser 1 would form part
of the upconverter and synthesiser 2 part of the down
converter. Both loops are optimised for application in
low phase noise loops and furtherly synthesiser 2 offers
low comparison frequencies. A block diagram is
contained in Figure 1.
The SP5848 is designed to be programmed from a
standard 3-wire bus consisting of clock, data and enable,
where the serial clock and data lines can be shared with
other devices and the enable line is a unique line for
individual device selection. To simplify programming
each synthesiser is independently addressed, with the
required loop being selected by the LSB bit , which
functions as the address, therefore to fully program the
device two complete data transmissions must be sent.
The device is programmed via a 3-wire bus where data
is fed on serial data and clock lines and is gated by an
enable line. Figure 3 indicates the format of the data.
The sequence and timing of data load is described
below in ‘programming mode’ description. Each
synthesiser is independently addressable and is defined
by the LSB bit within the data transmission.
The data format for each transmission is contained in
Figure 3.
A common reference frequency source and reference
divider is used to derive the comparison frequency for
both PLL loops. The reference division ratio is
programmable via the data bus as defined in Tables1
and 2.
The charge pump current for each loop is also
programmable via the data bus as defined in Tables 3
and 4
Two switching ports are provided to control switching
functions within the tuner. These ports also access test
signals within the PLL as defined in Figure 7. Ports
power up in high impedance state.
4
Test modes as described in Figure 7, can be invoked by
setting bit T0 in synthesiser 2 data word to a ‘1’ and
sending control data for bits T1-T2. In normal operation
where T0 is set to a ‘0’ bits T1 and T2 do not need to be
transmitted
