Dec. 2000 Edition 2.0 ASSP Dual Serial Input PLL Frequency Synthesizer MB15F73UL n DESCRIPTION The Fujitsu MB15F73UL is a serial input Phase Locked Loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer with a 2250MHz and a 600MHz prescalers. A 64/65 or a 128/129 for the 2250MHz prescaler, and a 8/9 or a 16/17 for the 600MHz prescaler can be selected for the prescaler that enables pulse swallow operation. The latest BiCMOS process is used, as a result a supply current is typically 3.2mA typ. at 2.7V. The supply voltage range is from 2.4V to 3.6V. A refined charge pump supplies well-balanced output current with 1.5mA and 6mA selectable by serial data. The data format is same as the previous one MB15F03SL, MB15F73SP. Fast locking is acheived for adopting the new circuit. The new package(BCC20) decreases a mount area of MB15F73UL more than 30% comparing with the former BCC16(for dual PLL). MB15F73UL is ideally suited for wireless mobile communications, such as GSM and CDMA. n FEATURES • High frequency operation: RF synthesizer : 2250MHz max IF synthesizer : 600MHz max • Low power supply voltage: VCC = 2.4 to 3.6 V • Ultra Low power supply current : ICC = 3.2 mA typ.

Power Saving Mode (Intermittent Mode Control Circuit) Table 9. PS Pin Setting PS pin Status H Normal mode L Power saving mode The intermittent mode control circuit reduces the PLL power consumption. By setting the PS pin low, the device enters into the power saving mode, reducing the current consumption. See the Electrical Characteristics chart for the specific value. The phase detector output, Do, becomes high impedance. For the single PLL, the lock detector, LD, remains high, indicating a locked condition. For the dual PLL, the lock detector, LD, is as shown in the LD Output Logic table. Setting the PS pin high, releases the power saving mode, and the device works normally. The intermittent mode control circuit also ensures a smooth startup when the device returns to normal operation. When the PLL is returned to normal operation, the phase comparator output signal is unpredictable. This is because of the unknown relationship between the comparison frequency (fp) and the reference frequency (fr) which can cause a major change in the comparator output, resulting in a VCO frequency jump and an increase in lockup time. To prevent a major VCO frequency jump, the intermittent mode control circuit limits the magnitude of the error signal from the phase detector when it returns to normal operation. Note: When power (VCC) is first applied, the device must be in standby mode, PS=Low, for at least 1µs. 11 Dec. 2000 Edition 2.0 MB15F73UL Note: • PS pin must be set at “L” for Power ON.
