The fractional-N implementation provides low in-band noise by having a low division and fast frequency settling time. The device also provides programmable, arbitrary fine frequency resolution. This compensates the frequency synthesizer for crystal frequency drift. Serial I/O Control Interface The SKY73121-11 is programmed through a three-wire serial bus control interface using four 26-bit words. The three-wire interface consists of three signals: CLK (pin 17), LE (pin 19), and the bit serial data line DATA (pin 18). The convention is to load data from the most significant bit to the least significant bit (MSB to LSB). A serial data input timing diagram is shown in Figure 3. Preset timing parameter values are provided in Table 2. Although the SKY73121-11 uses a 5 V DC supply, the internal voltage regulator has a 3.3 V output for the PLL. Therefore, the input DC voltage for the serial interface (CLK, DATA, and LE signals) should be set to 3.3 V or lower. Figure 4 depicts the serial bus, which consists of one 26-bit load register and four separate 24-bit registers. Data is initially clocked into the load register starting with the MSB and ending with the LSB. The LE signal is used to gate the clock to the load register, requiring the LE signal to be brought low before the data load. Data is shifted on the rising edge of CLK. The two final LSBs are decoded to determine which holding register should latch the data. The falling edge of LE latches the data into the appropriate holding register. This programming sequence must be repeated to fill all four holding registers. The specific hold register addresses are determined by the wd_0 and wd_1 parameters in the load register. These are the two LSBs (bits [1:0]) as shown in Figure 4. Table 3 lists the four hold registers and their respective addresses as determined in the load register. The dpll_ctrl parameter (bits [19:2] of Word 1) programs the Digital Phase Locked Loop (DPLL) block. Each of the 18 bits that comprise the dpll_ctrl parameter map directly to the signal ports on the DPLL block as shown in Table 8 (except for the dpll_flag_override and dpll_flag_value parameters). Loading new data into a holding register not associated with the synthesizer frequency programming does not reset or change the synthesizer. The synthesizer should not lose lock before, during, or after a new serial word load that does not change the programmed frequency. VCO Auto-Tuning Loop A VCO auto-tuning loop provides the proper 7-bit coarse tuning setting for the VCO switch capacitors in the VCO output. This sets the oscillation frequency as close to target as possible before starting fine analog tuning. When VCO auto-tuning is enabled, the PLL performs a seven-step successive approximation process to digitally tune the VCO close to the final programmed frequency. Once that is complete, analog tuning is switched in to lock the VCO to the programmed frequency. The auto-tuning loop is designed to compensate process variation so that the VCO fine tuning range can be reduced to cover temperature variation only. It significantly reduces VCO gain (Kv) which reduces VCO phase noise. There are two conditions that enable the VCO auto-tuning function: a Power-On-Reset (POR) and a change in frequency. The difference in the program flow under each of these conditions is illustrated in Figure 5. Under either condition, dpll_en (bit [20] of Word 1) should first be cleared so that a rising edge pulse can be generated. Following this pulse, set dpll_en to enable VCO autotuning. A POR timing diagram is shown in Figure 6. VCO auto-tuning details in the frequency and time domains are shown in Figure 7. The contents of each word in the load register are used to program the four hold registers described in Tables 4 through 7. DATA tDHD tDSU tCKH tCKL CLK tCLE tLEC tLEW LE S1053 Figure 3.

VCO Auto-Tuning @ 1860 MHz Frequency Settling VCO Prescalers The VCO prescalers divide the VCO output signal by either 16/17 or 8/9. The 6'modulator determines whether to divide by 16 or 17 in the 16/17 mode, or whether to divide by 8 or 9 in the 8/9 mode. The 8/9 mode provides the best performance for the SKY73121-11. N-Counter The N-counter consists of two asynchronous ripple counters, a 6-bit M-counter and a 4-bit A-counter. The M-counter determines the counts using the lower division ratio in the prescaler (8 or 16); the A-counter determines the counts using the upper division ratio (9 or 17). The total N-counter divider ratio for the 8/9 mode is 56 (8 × 7) minimum; for the 16/17 mode, the ratio is 240 (16 × 15) minimum. By changing the counter setting at each reference clock cycle, the Modulated Fractional Divider (MFD) achieves the desired noise shaping. VCO MFD Block The MFD block divides down the prescaler output to the Phase Locked Loop (PLL) reference frequency. A third order cascaded 6'modulation technique minimizes spurs through randomization of the division ratio. The MFD block controls the division ratio by dynamically programming the M and A counters in the N-counter. Phase Detector and Charge Pump The phase detector and charge pump detect and integrate the phase and frequency errors of the divided down VCO output versus the reference clock. This results in a feedback adjustment of the control voltage for the VCO.

Normally, pin 22 (LD) is used for lock detect output. This pin can also be programmed as the R1 divider output, N-divider output, or DPLL test output. Pin 22 is controlled by Word 0, bits [17:15]. Reference Input Divider Because of the way the '6 modulator is implemented in the SKY73121-11, the number 3.5 must be added to the division number to obtain the final division ratio. The calculated value for DTotal can then be used to determine the correct synthesizer frequency, RF: RF FREF u DTotal R1 (2) Where: FREF = the reference frequency The R-counter (reference input clock divider) consists of three divide-by-two blocks and one multiplexer controlled by the rdiv[3:2] parameter in Word 2. The R1 divider is used to select a divide-by-one, two, four, or divide-by-eight function. The integral loop filter (see Figure 1) is designed to operate at an internal comparison frequency of approximately 6.5 MHz. The input reference signal must be divided using the rdiv [3:2] bits in Word 2 to closely match this frequency. Further optimization of the loop filter bandwidth may be accomplished using the cp_output [4:2] bits in Word 0. R1 = the reference divider radio The 6-bit M-counter and the 4-bit A-counter portions of the Ncounter are calculated according to the following relationships: Nactual is the actual N-counter value and is the integer portion of (DTotal – 3.5): Nactual = Mactual × P + Aactual If: M = Mactual (binary number, fit to six bits) A = Aactual (binary number, fit to four bits) Then: N = M × 24 + A Reference Buffer Bandwidth The two-bit parameter ref_bw_sel adjusts the operating point of the input buffer to compensate for different reference signal sources. Generally the best setting is 50 MHz, but this could vary depending on the source used. Synthesizer Output Switch An on-chip switch is integrated into the SKY73121-11 RF output after the balun and is controlled by the SW_EN signal (pin 4) as indicated below: SW_EN Input Synthesizer Output High On Low Off FNactual = the actual fractional divisor P = 24 = 16 In this case, N is the same as Nactual, M is equal to the six MSBs of Nactual, and A is equal to the four LSBs of Nactual. If the 8/9 prescaler is used: P=8 The fractional divisor code (FN) sets the fractional-N modulo up to 256 modulo according to the following equation: To program the synthesizer to the correct frequency, values for the N-counter (both M and A portions), fractional divisor (FN), and fractional modulus extender (ME) are needed. These values are used to determine the total divider ratio, DTotal, according to Equation 1: Where: Nactual = the actual value of the N-counter The synthesizer has a selectable prescaler of 8/9 or 16/17. If the 16/17 prescaler is used: NOTE: The minimum actual N counter value for the 8/9 mode is 8 x 7 = 56, and for the 16/17 mode is 16 x 15 = 240. Synthesizer Programming DTotal = Nactual + FNactual + MEactual + 3.5 Where: N is the number to be programmed into the N-counter. Here, N is not equal to Nactual. The A-counter portion only uses the three LSBs (the 4th bit of the A-counter is a “don’t care” bit). The switch provides >50 dB isolation at the synthesizer RF output. This allows the SKY73121-11 to be used for GSM applications.

Paths to ground should be made as short and as low impedance as possible. 2. The ground pad of the SKY73121-11 provides critical electrical grounding requirements. Design the connection to the ground pad to provide the best electrical connection to the circuit board. Multiple vias to the grounding layer are recommended to connect the top layer ground area to the main ground layer. 3. Skyworks recommends including external bypass capacitors on the VDD voltage input (pin 37) of the device. These capacitors should be placed as close as possible to the VDD input pin. 4. A 50 : impedance trace is needed for the RF_OUT (pin 10) line. = 0.653846153846 – 0.65234375 = 0.001502403846 Skyworks Solutions, Inc. • Phone [781] 376-3000 • Fax [781] 376-3100 • [email protected] • www.skyworksinc.com 200888B • Skyworks Proprietary Information • Products and Product Information are Subject to Change Without Notice • December 1, 2009 11 DATA SHEET • SKY73121-11 VCO/SYNTHESIZER Electrical and Mechanical Specifications Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitivity The absolute maximum ratings of the SKY73121-11 are provided in Table 9.
