Functional Description
The Si4133 is a monolithic integrated circuit that
performs IF and dual-band RF synthesis for wireless
communications applications. This integrated circuit
(IC), with minimal external components, completes the
frequency synthesis function necessary for RF
communications systems.
The Si4133 has three complete phase-locked loops
(PLLs) with integrated voltage-controlled oscillators
(VCOs). The low phase noise of the VCOs makes the
Si4133 suitable for use in demanding wireless
communications applications. Phase detectors, loop
filters, and reference and output frequency dividers are
integrated. The IC is programmed through a three-wire
serial interface.
Two PLLs are provided for dual-band RF synthesis.
These RF PLLs are multiplexed so that only one PLL is
active at a given time (as determined by the setting of
an internal register). The active PLL is the last one
written. The center frequency of the VCO in each PLL is
set by the value of an external inductance. Inaccuracies
in these inductances are compensated for by the selftuning algorithm. The algorithm is run following powerup or following a change in the programmed output
frequency.
The unique PLL architecture used in the Si4133
produces settling (lock) times that are comparable in
speed to fractional-N architectures without suffering the
high phase noise or spurious modulation effects often
associated with those designs.

A timing diagram for the serial interface is shown in
Figure 2 on page 7. Figure 3 on page 7 shows the
format of the serial word.
The Si4133 is programmed serially with 22-bit words
comprised of 18-bit data fields and 4-bit address fields.
When the serial interface is enabled (i.e., when SENB is
low) data and address bits on the SDATA pin are
clocked into an internal shift register on the rising edge
of SCLK. Data in the shift register is then transferred on
the rising edge of SENB into the internal data register
addressed in the address field. The serial interface is
disabled when SENB is high.
Table 12 on page 21 summarizes the data register
functions and addresses. The internal shift register will
ignore any leading bits before the 22 required bits.
Setting the VCO Center Frequencies
Each RF PLL, when active, can adjust the RF output
frequency by ±5% of its VCO’s center frequency.
Because the two VCOs can be set to have widely
separated center frequencies, the RF output can be
programmed to service two widely separated frequency
bands by simply programming the corresponding NDivider. One RF VCO is optimized to have its center
frequency set between 947 MHz and 1.72 GHz, while
the second RF VCO is optimized to have its center
frequency set between 789 MHz and 1.429 GHz.
The PLLs can adjust the IF and RF output frequencies
±5% of the center frequencies of their VCOs. Each
center frequency is established by the value of an
external inductance connected to the respective VCO.
Manufacturing tolerances of ±10% for the external
inductances are acceptable. The Si4133 will
compensate for inaccuracies in each inductance by
executing a self-tuning algorithm following PLL powerup or following a change in the programmed output
frequency.
One PLL is provided for IF frequency synthesis. The
center frequency of this circuit’s VCO is set by
connection of an external inductance. The PLL can
adjust the IF output frequency by ±5% of the VCO
center frequency. Inaccuracies in the value of the
external inductance are compensated for by the
Si4133’s proprietary self-tuning algorithm. This
algorithm is initiated each time the PLL is powered-up
(by either the PWDNB pin or by software) and/or each
time a new output frequency is programmed.
Because the total tank inductance is in the low nH
range, the inductance of the package needs to be
considered in determining the correct external
inductance. The total inductance (LTOT) presented to
each VCO is the sum of the external inductance (LEXT)
and the package inductance (LPKG). Each VCO has a
nominal capacitance (CNOM) in parallel with the total
inductance, and the center frequency is as follows:
The IF VCO can have its center frequency set as low as
526 MHz and as high as 952 MHz. An IF output divider
is provided to divide down the IF output frequencies, if
needed. The divider is programmable, capable of
dividing by 1, 2, 4, or 8.

1145 MHz. The center frequency should be defined as
midway between the two extremes, or 1132.5 MHz. The
PLL will be able to adjust the VCO output frequency
±5% of the center frequency, or ±56.6 MHz of
1132.5 MHz (i.e., from approximately 1076 MHz to
1189 MHz). The RF2 VCO has a CNOM of 4.8 pF. A
4.1 nH inductance (correct to two digits) in parallel with
this capacitance will yield the desired center frequency.
An external inductance of 1.8 nH should be connected
between RFLC and RFLD as shown in Figure 15. This,
in addition to 2.3 nH of package inductance, will present
the correct total inductance to the VCO. In
manufacturing, the external inductance can vary ±10%
of its nominal value and the Si4133 will correct for the
variation with the self-tuning algorithm.

The self-tuning algorithm is initiated immediately
following power-up of a PLL or, if the PLL is already
powered, following a change in its programmed output
frequency. This algorithm attempts to tune the VCO so
that its free-running frequency is near the desired output
frequency. In doing so, the algorithm will compensate
for manufacturing tolerance errors in the value of the
external inductance connected to the VCO. It will also
reduce the frequency error for which the PLL must
correct to get the precise desired output frequency. The
self-tuning algorithm will leave the VCO oscillating at a
frequency in error by somewhat less than 1% of the
desired output frequency.
After self-tuning, the PLL controls the VCO oscillation
frequency. The PLL will complete frequency locking,
eliminating any remaining frequency error. Thereafter, it
will maintain frequency-lock, compensating for effects
caused by temperature and supply voltage variations.

As a design example, suppose the goal is to synthesize

The Si4133’s self-tuning algorithm will compensate for
component value errors at any temperature within the
specified temperature range. However, the ability of the
PLL to compensate for drift in component values that
occur after self-tuning is limited. For external
inductances with temperature coefficients around
±150 ppm/oC, the PLL will be able to maintain lock for
changes in temperature of approximately ±30 oC.
Rev. 1.1
17
S i4 13 3
Applications where the PLL is regularly powered-down
or the frequency is periodically reprogrammed minimize
or eliminate the potential effects of temperature drift
because the VCO is re-tuned in either case. In
applications where the ambient temperature can drift
substantially after self-tuning, it may be necessary to
monitor the lock-detect bar (LDETB) signal on the
AUXOUT pin to determine whether a PLL is about to
run out of locking capability. (See “Auxiliary Output
(AUXOUT)” for how to select LDETB.) The LDETB
signal will be low after self-tuning has completed but will
rise when either the IF or RF PLL nears the limit of its
compensation range. (LDETB will also be high when
either PLL is executing the self-tuning algorithm.) The
output frequency will still be locked when LDETB goes
high, but the PLL will eventually lose lock if the
temperature continues to drift in the same direction.
Therefore, if LDETB goes high both the IF and RF PLLs
should promptly be re-tuned by initiating the self-tuning
algorithm.
PLL Loop Dynamics
The transient response for each PLL is determined by
its phase detector update rate fφ (equal to fREF/R) and
the phase detector gain programmed for each RF1,
RF2, or IF synthesizer. (See Register 1.) Four different
settings for the phase detector gain are available for
each PLL. The highest gain is programmed by setting
the two phase detector gain bits to 00, and the lowest by
setting the bits to 11. The values of the available gains,
relative to the highest gain, are as follows:

Output Frequencies
The IF and RF output frequencies are set by
programming the R- and N-Divider registers. Each PLL
has its own R and N registers so that each can be
programmed independently. Programming either the Ror N-Divider register for RF1 or RF2 automatically
selects the associated output.
The reference frequency on the XIN pin is divided by R
and this signal is input to the PLL’s phase detector. The
other input to the phase detector is the PLL’s VCO
output frequency divided by N. The PLL acts to make
these frequencies equal. That is, after an initial transient
The gain value bits can be automatically set by setting
the Auto KP bit (bit 2) in the Main Configuration register
to 1. In setting this bit, the gain values will be optimized
for a given value of N. In general, a higher phase
detector gain will decrease in-band phase noise and
increase the speed of the PLL transient until the point at
which stability begins to be compromised. The optimal
gain depends on N. Table 9 lists recommended settings
for different values of N. These are the settings used
when the Auto KP bit is set.

The R values are set by programming the RF1 RDivider register (Register 6), the RF2 R-Divider register
(Register 7) and the IF R-Divider register (Register 8).
The N values are set by programming the RF1 NDivider register (Register 3), the RF2 N-Divider register
(Register 4), and the IF N-Divider register (Register 5).
Each N-Divider is implemented as a conventional high
speed divider. That is, it consists of a dual-modulus
prescaler, a swallow counter, and a lower speed
synchronous counter. However, the control of these
sub-circuits is handled automatically. Only the
appropriate N value should be programmed.

The VCO gain and loop filter characteristics are not
programmable.
The settling time for the PLL is directly proportional to its
phase detector update period Tφ (Tφ equals 1/fφ). A
typical transient response is shown in Figure 6 on page
11. During the first 13 update periods the Si4133
executes the self-tuning algorithm. Thereafter the PLL
Rev. 1.1
Si4133
controls the output frequency. Because of the unique
architecture of the Si4133 PLLs, the time required to
settle the output frequency to 0.1 ppm error is only
about 25 update periods. Thus, the total time after
power-up or a change in programmed frequency until
the synthesized frequency is well settled—including
time for self-tuning—is around 40 update periods.

Note: The settling time analysis holds for RF1 fφ ≤ 500 kHz.
For RF1 fφ > 500 kHz, the settling time is larger.
Figure 16. IF Frequencies > 500 MHz
RF and IF Outputs
The RFOUT and IFOUT pins are driven by amplifiers
that buffer the RF VCOs and IF VCO, respectively. The
RF output amplifier receives its input from either the
RF1 or RF2 VCO, depending upon which R- or NDivider register was last written. For example,
programming the N-Divider register for RF1
automatically selects the RF1 VCO output.
Figures 13 and 14 show application diagrams for the
Si4133. The RF output signal must be AC coupled to its
load through a capacitor. An external inductance
between the RFOUT pin and the AC coupling capacitor
is required as part of an output matching network to
maximize power delivered to the load. This 2 nH
inductance may be realized with a PC board trace. The
network is made to provide an adequate match to an
external 50 Ω load for both the RF1 and RF2 frequency
bands. The matching network also filters the output
signal to reduce harmonic distortion.
The IFOUT pin must also be AC coupled to its load
through a capacitor. The IF output level is dependent
upon the load. Figure 18 on page 20 displays the output
level versus load resistance for a variety of output
frequencies. For resistive loads greater than 500 Ω the
output level saturates and the bias currents in the IF
output amplifier are higher than they need to be. The
LPWR bit in the Main Configuration register (Register 0)
can be set to 1 to reduce the bias currents and therefore
reduce the power dissipated by the IF amplifier. For
loads less than 500 Ω, LPWR should be set to 0 to
maximize the output level.
For IF frequencies greater than 500 MHz, a matching
network is required in order to drive a 50 Ω load. See
Figure 16 below. The value of LMATCH can be
determined from Table 10.

For frequencies less than 500 MHz, the IF output buffer
can directly drive a 200 Ω resistive load or higher. For
resistive loads greater than 500 Ω (f < 500 MHz) the
LPWR bit can be set to reduce the power consumed by
the IF output buffer. See Figure 17 below.

Reference Frequency Amplifier
The Si4133 provides a reference frequency amplifier. If
the driving signal has CMOS levels it can be connected
directly to the XIN pin. Otherwise, the reference
frequency signal should be AC coupled to the XIN pin
through a 560 pF capacitor.
Power Down Modes
Table 11 summarizes the power down functionality. The
Si4133 can be powered down by taking the PWDNB pin
low or by setting bits in the Power Down register
(Register 2). When the PWDNB pin is low, the Si4133 will
be powered down regardless of the Power Down register
settings. When the PWDNB pin is high, power
management is under control of the Power Down register
bits.
The IF and RF sections of the Si4133 circuitry can be
individually powered down by setting the Power Down
register bits PDIB and PDRB low, respectively. Note that
the reference frequency amplifier will also be powered up if
either the PDRB and PDIB bits are high. Also, setting the
AUTOPDB bit to 1 in the Main Configuration register
(Register 0) is equivalent to setting both bits in the Power
Down register to 1.
The serial interface remains available and can be written in
all power down modes.

Auxiliary Output (AUXOUT)
The signal appearing on AUXOUT is selected by setting
the AUXSEL bits in the Main Configuration register
(Register 0).
The LDETB signal can be selected by setting the AUXSEL
bits to 11. This signal can be used to indicate that the IF or
RF PLL is about to lose lock due to excessive ambient
temperature drift and should be re-tuned.
