FEATURES
• Extremely low phase noise:
STROBE
The charge pump current (gain) is fully programmable, while ISET is
set by an external resistance at the RSET pin (refer to section 1.5,
RF and IF Charge Pumps). The phase/frequency detector charge
pump outputs allow for implementing a passive loop filter.
PON
Extreme fine frequency resolution applications
LOCK
Separate power and ground pins are provided to the charge pumps
and digital circuits. VDDCP must be equal to or greater than VDD.
The ground pins should be externally connected to prevent large
currents from flowing across the die and thus causing damage.

PHA
The synthesizer operates at VCO input frequencies up to 2.5 GHz.
The synthesizer has fully programmable RF, IF, and reference
dividers. All divider ratios are supplied via a 3-wire serial
programming bus. The RF divider is a fractional-N divider with
programmable integer ratios from 33 to 509 and a fractional
resolution of 22 programmable bits (23 bits internal). A 2nd order
sigma-delta modulator is used to achieve fractional division.

Philips Semiconductors
Product data
2.5 GHz sigma delta fractional-N /
760 MHz IF integer frequency synthesizers
During each RF divider cycle, one divider output pulse is generated.
The positive edge of this pulse drives the phase comparator, the
negative edge drives the sigma-delta modulator which is of 2nd
order and has an effective resolution of 22 bits. Internally, the
modulator works with 23 fractional bits K<22:0>, but the LSB (bit K0)
is set to ‘1’ internally to avoid limit cycles (cycles of less than
maximum length). This leaves 22 bits (K<22:1>) available for
external programming.
1.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Frequency synthesizers, such as Philips Semiconductors’ SA8028,
are a crucial part of Phase Locked Loops (PLL) for both voice and
data devices used in communications. Five components make up
the basic PLL (see Figure 4). A very stable, low frequency, signal
source (typically a temperature controlled crystal oscillator TCXO_)
is used as a reference to the system. A second signal source
(typically a VCO) is used to generate the desired output frequency.
A phase/frequency detector (PFD) is used to compare the
phase/frequency error between the two signals. A loop filter (LPF)
rejects undesired noise while also integrating the PFD output current
to drive the VCO with the necessary tuning voltage, and a divider in
the feedback path is used to down-convert the VCO output
frequency to the reference frequency for comparison. The SA8028
is a dual synthesizer that integrates programmable dividers,
programmable charge pumps and phase comparators to be
implemented as part of RF and IF PLLs. The RF synthesizer
operates at VCO input frequencies up to 2.5 GHz, while the IF
synthesizer operates at VCO input frequencies up to 760 MHz.
LPF
TCXO
Under these conditions (2nd order modulator, 23 fractional bits,
K0 = ‘1’), all possible sigma-delta sequences are 2*223 divider
cycles long, which is the maximum length. The noise shaping
characteristic is +20 dB/dec for offset frequencies up to approx.
fCOMP/5, which needs to be cancelled by a closed-loop transfer
function of sufficient high order. The output of the sigma-delta
modulator is 2 bits, which are added to the integer RF division ratio
N, such that the momentary division ratios range from
(N–1) to (N+2) in steps of 1.
1.2 IF divider
The IFin input drives a pre-amplifier to provide the clock to the first
divider stage. The pre-amplifier has a high input impedance,
dominated by pin and pad capacitance. The divider consists of a
fully programmable bipolar prescaler followed by a CMOS counter.
The allowable divide ratios are from 128 to 16383 (C-word bits
<21:8>). Table 14 shows all the possible values that can be
programmed into the C-Word for the IF divider.

1.3 Reference divider (see Figure 5)
DIVIDER
The IF phase detector’s reference input is an integer ratio of the
reference frequency. The reference divider chain consists of a
bipolar input buffer followed by a CMOS divider and a 3-bit binary
counter (SA register). The allowable divide ratios, R, are from 4 to
1023 (B-word bits <21:12>) when the 3-bit binary counter (C-word
bits <2:0>) is set to all zeros, SA = 000. The 3-bit SA register
determines which of the 5 divider outputs (refer to Table 12) is
selected as the IF phase detector input (see Figure 5). For the RF
synthesizer, the output of the reference input buffer is routed directly
(not reference divider) to the input of the RF phase detector.

Figure 4. PLL block diagram.
1.1 RF Fractional-N divider
The RFin inputs drive a pre-amplifier to provide the clock to the first
divider stage. For single ended operation, the signal should be fed
(AC-coupled) to one of the inputs while the other one is AC grounded.
The pre-amplifier has a high input impedance, dominated by pin and
pad capacitance. The bipolar divider is fully programmable. For
allowable division ratios, see the “characteristics” table.

1.4 Phase detector (see Figure 6)
The reference signal and the RF (IF) divider output are connected to a phase frequency detector that controls the charge pumps. The dead
zone (caused by the finite time taken to switch the charge pump current sources on or off) is cancelled by forcing the pumps ON for a minimum
time (backlash time, τ) at every cycle providing improved linearity.

NOTES:
For the RF synthesizer, the output of the reference input buffer is routed directly (not divided) to the input of the RF phase detector. Whereas
for the IF synthesizer, the reference input to the IF phase detector is the output from the reference divider.
τ (backlash time) is the delay that fixes the minimum allowable charge pump activity time.

1.5 RF and IF Charge Pumps
1.7 Lock Detect
The RF phase detector drives the charge pumps on the PHP and
PHI pins, while the IF phase detector drives the charge pump on the
PHA pin. Both the RF and IF charge pump current values are
determined by the current generated at the RSET pin1. The current
gain can be further programmed by the CP0, CP1 bits in the C-word,
as seen in Table 1.
The output LOCK maintains a logic ‘1’ when the IF phase detector
(AND/ORed) with the RF phase detector indicates a lock condition.
The lock condition for the RF and IF synthesizers is defined as a
phase difference of less than "1 period of the frequency at the input
REFin+, REFin–. One counter can fulfill the lock condition when the
other counter is powered down. Out of lock (logic ‘0’) is indicated
when both counters are powered down.

With power applied to the chip, power-down mode can be entered
either by hardware (external signal on pin PON) or by software (by
programming the PD = Power Down bits (<B10, B9>) in the B-word).
The PON signal is exclusively ORed with the PD bits. If PON = 0,
then the part is powered up when PD = 1 (<B10, B9>). PON can be
used to invert the polarity of the software bits PD. Table 9 of section
2.4.2 illustrates how power-down mode can be implemented.
NOTES
1. ISET = VSET/RSET: bias current for charge pumps.
2. CP1 = 1 is used to disable the PHI pump.
3. IPHP–SU is the total current at pin PHP during speed up condition.
During power-down mode the 3-wire bus remains active and
programming-words may be pre-loaded before switching to
power-up mode. If the chip is programmed while in power-down
mode, the RF divider ratio NRF is internally presented to the RF
divider on the next falling edge of STROBE after STROBE has gone
high at the end of the A-word. Power-down mode does not reset the
sigma-delta modulator., i.e., power-down mode preserves the state
of the sigma-delta modulator (as long as power is applied to the
chip).
1.6 Charge Pumps Speed-up Mode
The RF charge pumps will enter speed-up mode when STROBE
goes high after A-word has been sent. They will exit speed-up mode
on the next falling edge of STROBE. There is no speed-up mode for
the IF charge pump.
The charge pump, by default, will automatically go into speed-up
mode (which can deliver up to 15*ISET for PHP_SU, and 36*ISET for
PHI), based on the strobe pulse width following the A-word to
reduce switching speed for large tuning voltage steps (i.e., large
frequency steps). Figure 7 shows the recommended passive loop
filter configuration. Note: This charge pump architecture eliminates
the need for added active switches and reduces external component
count. Furthermore, the programmable charge pump gains provide
some programmability to the loop filter bandwidth.
To take advantage of the register pre-loading capability while the
device is in power-down mode, the B-word needs to be sent a
second time (i.e., again, after the A-word), with the PD (<B10, B9>)
bits now programmed for power-up.
If power-up mode is to be controlled by hardware, the PON signal
must be toggled only after the A-word has been sent and STROBE
has gone high and then low.
When the synthesizer is reactivated after power-down mode, the IF
and reference dividers are synchronized to avoid random phase
errors on power-up. There is no power-up synchronization between
the RF divider and the reference clock. After power-up, there is a
delay of four edges (i.e. 1.5 cycles) of the output clock of the
reference divider before the RF phase detector is activated. That
means the reference divider must be powered up for the RF phase
detector to become active.
The duration of speed-up mode is determined by the strobe pulse
that follows the A-word. Recommended optimal strobe width is equal
to the total loop filter capacitance charge time from VCO control
voltage level 1 to VCO control voltage level 2. The strobe width must
not exceed this charge time. An external data processing unit
controls the width of the strobe pulse (e.g., × number of clock
cycles).
When initially applying or reapplying power to the chip, and internal
power-up reset pulse is generated which sets the programming-words
to their default values and also resets the sigma-delta modulator to
its “all-0” state. It is also recommended that the D-word be manually
reset to all zeros, following initial power-up, to avoid unknown states.
In addition, charge pumps will stay in speed-up mode continuously
while Tspu = 1 (in D-word <D15>). The speed-up mode can also be
disabled by programming Tdis-spu = 1 (in D-word <D16>).

When loading several words in series, the minimum STROBE high
time between words must be observed (refer to Figure 8).
2.0 SERIAL PROGRAMMING BUS
A simple 3-line bidirectional serial bus is used to program the circuit.
The 3 lines are DATA, CLOCK and STROBE. When the STROBE = 0,
the clock driver is enabled and on the positive edges of the CLOCK
signal, DATA is clocked into temporary shift registers. When the
STROBE = 1, the clock is disabled and the data in the shift register
is latched into different working registers, depending on the address
bits. In order to fully program the circuit, 3 words must be sent in the
following order: C, B, and A. An additional word, the D-word, is for
test purposes only: all bits in this test word should be initialized to 0
for normal operation. The N value of the B-word is stored temporarily
until the A-word is loaded to avoid temporarily false N settings, while
the corresponding fractional ratio Kn is not yet active. When a new
fractional ratio is loaded through the A-word, the fractional sigma
delta modulator is not reset, i.e., it will start the new fractional
sequence from the last state of the previously executed sequence. A
typical programming sequence is illustrated in Figure 10.
Unlike the earlier SA80xx family members, SA8028 has the built-in
feature to output the contents of an addressable internal register.
For the current SA8028, only the momentary division ratio N (RF
divider) can be retrieved through the serial bus. The handshake
protocol requires a “request to read” to be sent prior to each “read”,
i.e., by sending a D-word with the TreadN-bit (<D11>) set to “high”.
Immediately after the transition of “STROBE” from low-to-high,
four (4) clock pulses are needed to prepare the data for output and
another nine (9) clock pulses are needed to accomplish the serial
reading with LSB first. A high-to-low transition of “STROBE” then
resets the serial bus to the input mode. The timing diagram is
presented in Figure 9. In general, a high-to-low transition of the
“STROBE” signal will instantaneously reset the serial bus to the
input mode, even when the chip is in the output mode.

Kn sets the fractional part of the total division ratio. To avoid limit cycles the K0 bit is internally set to “1”
2.3.1 The fractional multiplier <A21:A0>
The A-word register is dedicated for programming the RF loop, fractional multiplier (the sigma-delta modulator) which has an effective resolution
of 22 bits. The modulator works with 23 bits, Kn<22:0>. However, this K0 bit is set to ‘1’ internally to avoid limit cycles (cycles of less than
maximum length). This leaves 22 bits (Kn<22:1>) available for external programming. Refer to Table 6.
Calculating the desired VCO output frequency can be easily accomplished by using the following equation, Equation (1).
ǒ
f VCO + f ref N ) 2
Kn <22:1> ) 1

where fref is the reference frequency at the REF input pin and N is the integer multiplier. Kn, once again, is the fractional multiplier.
Example:
Determine the Kn value required for generating a VCO frequency of 2100 MHz with a reference frequency of 19.68 MHz.

2.4.1 The RF divider <B8:B0>
Programming the RF divider to obtain the desired VCO output frequency is done by programming the B-word followed by the A-word. The
integer divider bits N<8:0> are in the B-word, whereas the fractional divider bits Kn<22:1> are in the A-word. Allowable integer division ratios are
shown in Table 8. The N value, from Equation (2), is simply the whole number of times the reference frequency goes into the desired VCO
output frequency. Recall that the reference frequency for the RF loop is not reduced prior to the phase detector. In other words, the frequency at
the input of the REFin is the comparison frequency.

2.4.2 Power–down <B10:B9>
If the chip is programmed while in power-up mode, the loading of the A-word and of the N values in the B-word are synchronized to the RF
divider output pulse. The data takes effect internally on the second falling edge of the RF divider output pulse after STROBE has gone high at
the end of the A-word. STROBE does not need to be held high until that second falling edge of the RF divider output pulse has occurred.
If the chip is programmed while in power-down mode, this synchronization scheme is disabled. The fully static CMOS design uses virtually no
current when the bus is inactive. It can always capture new programmed data, even during power-down.
To take advantage of the program register pre-loading capability while the device is in power-down mode, the B-word needs to be sent a second
time (i.e. again, after the A-word), with the PD bits now programmed for power-up. If power-up mode is to be controlled by hardware, the PON
signal must be toggled only after the A-word has been sent and STROBE has gone high and then low.
When the synthesizer is reactivated after power-down mode, the IF and reference dividers are synchronized to avoid random phase errors on
power-up. There is no power-up synchronization between the RF divider and the reference clock. However, after power-up, there is a delay of
four edges (i.e. 1.5 cycles) of the output clock of the reference divider before the RF phase detector is activated. That means the reference
divider must be powered up for the RF phase detector to become active.
When initially applying or re-applying power to the chip, an internal power-up reset pulse is generated which sets the programming-words to
their default values and also resets the sigma-delta modulator to its “all-0” state. It is also recommended that the D-word be manually reset to all
zeros, following initial power-up, to avoid unknown states.

2.4.3 Programming the IF Reference Divider <B21:B12>
The IF phase detector’s reference input is an integer multiple of the frequency at the input of the REFin pin. The reference divider has 10
programmable bits, <B21:B12> for allowable divide ratios, R, from 4 to 1023 when the 3 bit binary SA counter (refer to section 2.5.1) is set to all
zeros. Table 10 lists the allowable R values.

The reset bits offer extra flexibility. The default value for bits <B11>, <C3> are all zeros. Bit <B11> disables the IF reference divider and allows
for extra savings of approximately 200 µA when set to ‘1’. However, this bit must initially be set to ‘0’ during any power-up sequence. The RF
phase detector is activated after a delay of four edges of the reference divider output clock. Bit <C3> resets the sigma-delta modulator after
each loading of an A-word. It is held in the reset state between the first and second falling edge of the RF divider output pulse after STROBE
has gone high at the end of the A-word.

The RF phase detector drives the charge pumps on the PHP and PHI pins, while the IF phase detector drives the charge pump on the PHA pin.
The current generated at the RSET pin determines both the RF and IF charge pump current values in conjunction with the current gain
programmed by the CP0, CP1 bits in the C–word, as seen in Table 1. For more information on charge pump speed-up mode, refer to section
1.6.

The D-word is for test purposes only. All bits in this test word should be initialized to 0 for normal operation. When initially applying or
re-applying power to the chip, an internal power-up reset pulse if generated which sets the programming-words to their default values and which
resets the sigma-delta modulator to its “all-0” state. It is also recommended that the D-word be manually reset to all zeros, following initial
power-up, to avoid unknown states.
