AK1547
4GHz Low Noise Integer-N Frequency Synthesizer
1. Overview
The AK1547 is an Integer-N PLL (Phase Locked Loop) frequency synthesizer, covering a wide range of frequency
from 500MHz to 4GHz. Consisting of a highly accurate charge pump, a reference divider, a programmable divider
and a dual-modulus prescaler (P/P+1), this product provides high performance, very low Phase Noise and small
footprints.
An ideal PLL can be achieved by combining the AK1547 with the external loop filter and VCO (Voltage Controlled
Oscillator). Access to the registers is controlled via a 3-wire serial interface. The operating supply voltage is from
2.7V to 5.5V, and the charge pump circuit and the serial interface can be driven by individual supply voltage.

8. Block Functional Descriptions
1. Frequency Setup
The following formula is used to calculate the frequency setting for the AK1547.
Frequency setting (external VCO output frequency) = FPFD × N
Where :
N
: Dividing number N = [ (P × B) + A ]
FPFD
: Phase detector frequency FPFD = [REFIN] pin input frequency / R counter dividing number
P
: Prescaler Value (See < Address2>:{Pre[1:0]})
B
: B (Programmable) counter value (See <Address1>:{B[12:0]})
A
: A (Swallow) counter value (See <Address1>:{A[5:0]})
Calculation example
The output frequency of external reference frequency oscillator is 10MHz, and FPFD is 200kHz and VCO
frequency is 2460MHz.
AK1547 setting :
R (Reference counter)=10000000/200000 = 50 (<Address0>:{R[13:0]}= “50”)
P=32 (<Address2>:{PRE[1:0]}=”10Bin”)
B=384 (<Address1>:{B[12:0]}=”384”)
A=12 (<Address1>:{A[5:0]}=”12”)
Frequency setting = 200kHz × [ (32×384) + 12] = 2460MHz
Lower limit for setting consecutive dividing numbers
In AK1547, it is impossible to set consecutive dividing numbers below the lower limit. The lower limit, Nmin,
depends on the Prescaler setting, and can be calculated by the following formula;
Nmin=P2-P
The dividing number below Nmin can’t be set for succession. For example, in the case of P=16, 240 and over
can be set as consecutive dividing number.

Loop Filter Schematic
The charge pump current for normal operation (CP1) is determined by the setting in {CP1[2:0]}, which is a 3-bit
address of {D[15:13]} in <Address2> and a value of the resistance connected to the [BIAS] pin. The charge pump
current for the Fast Lock Up mode operation (CP2) is determined by the setting in {CP2[2:0]}, which is a 3-bit
address of D[18:16] in <Address2> and a value of the resistance connected to the [BIAS] pin.
The following formula shows the relationship among the resistance value, the register setting and the electric
current value.
charge pump minimum current (Icp_min) [A] =17.46 / Resistance connected to the BIAS pin [Ω]
charge pump current (Icp) [A] = Icp_min [A] × ({CP1} or {CP2} setting +1)
The allowed value range for the resistance connected to the [BIAS] pin is from 22 to 33kΩ for both normal and
Fast Lock Up mode operations.

3. Fast Lock Up Mode
Setting {FAST[1:0]} in <Address2> to “11Bin” and {CPGAIN} in <Address1> to “1” enables the Fast Lock Up mode
for the AK1547.
The Fast Lock Up mode is enabled only during the time period set by the timer according to the counter value in
{TIMER[3:0]} in <Address2>. The charge pump current is set to the value specified by {CP2}. When the specified
time period elapses, the Fast Lock Up mode operation is switched to the normal operation. And {CPGAIN} in
<Address1> is reset to “0”.
{TIMER[3:0]} in <Address2> is used to set the time period for this mode. The following formula is used to calculate
the time period :
Switchover time = 1 / FPFD × Counter Value
Counter Value = 3 + (Timer[3:0] setting × 4)

4．Lock Detect
Lock detect output can be selected by {LD[2:0]} in <Address2>. When {LD} is set to “101Bin", the phase detector
outputs an un-manipulated phase detection(comparison) result. (This is called “analog lock detect”.) When {LD} is
set to “001Bin”, the lock detect signal is output according to the on-chip logic. (This is called “digital lock detect”.)
The lock detect can be done as following (Case of R>1):
The [LD] pin is in unlocked state (which outputs “Low”) when a frequency setup is made.
In the digital lock detect, the [LD] pin outputs “High” (which means the locked state) when a phase error smaller
than a cycle of [REFIN] clock (T) is detected for N times consecutively. When a phase error larger than T is
detected for N times consecutively while the [LD] pin outputs “High”, then the [LD] pin outputs “Low” (which means
the unlocked state). The counter value N can be set by {LDP} in <Address0>. The N is different between
“unlocked to locked” and “locked to unlocked”.

5．Reference counter
The reference input can be set with a dividing number in the range of 1 to 16383 using {R [13:0]}, which is a 14-bit
address of {D[13:0]} in <Address0>. 0 cannot be set as a dividing number.
6．Prescaler
The dual modulus prescaler (P/P + 1) and the swallow counter are used to provide a large dividing ratio.
The prescaler is set by {PRE[1:0]}, which is a 2-bit latch of {D[21:20]} in <Address2>.
{PRE[1:0]}=”00Bin”, P=8, Dual modulus prescaler 8/9
{PRE[1:0]}=”01Bin”, P=16, Dual modulus prescaler 16/17
{PRE[1:0]}=”10Bin”, P=32, Dual modulus prescaler 32/33
{PRE[1:0]}=”11Bin”, P=64, Dual modulus prescaler 64/65
The Maximum Allowable Prescalor Output Frequency is 125MHz. “P” must be set as “RF Input Frequency/P≦
125MHz”.
7．Power-down and Power-save mode
It is possible to operate in the power-down or power-save mode if necessary by using the external control pin.

AK1547 provides two setting for charge pump current. They can be set by {CP1} and {CP2}.
The following formula shows the relationship among the resistance value, the register setting and the
electric current.
Charge pump minimum current (Icp_min)[A] = 17.46 / Resistance connected to the BIAS pin [Ω]
Charge pump current (Icp) [A] = Icp_min [A] × ({CP1} or {CP2} setting +1)

FAST[1:0] : Enables or disables the Fast Lock mode
When {FAST[1:0]} is ”11Bin”, {CPGAIN} of function latch is the Fast Lock mode bit. When Fast Lock is
enabled, charge pump current is set to the value of {CP2} setting during the switchover time under the
control of the timer counter. After the timeout, {CPGAIN} is reset into “0” and charge pump current goes
to be {CP1} setting value.
