Equivalent Schematic Diagram SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The XR-215A monolithic PLL system consists of a balanced phase comparator, a highly stable voltagecontrolled oscillator (VCO) and a high speed operational amplifier. The phase comparator outputs are internally connected to the VCO inputs and to the noninverting input of the operational amplifier. A self-contained PLL System is formed by simply AC coupling the VCO output to either of the phase comparator inputs and adding a low-pass filter to the phase comparator output terminals. VCO output (pin 15) to complete the PLL (see Figure 3). For split supply operation, these inputs are biased from ground as shown in Figure 4. For single supply operation, a resistive bias string similar to that shown in Figure 3 should be used to set the bias level at approximately VCC/2. The DC bias current at these terminals is nominally 8A. The VCO section has frequency sweep, on-off keying, sync, and digital programming capabilities. Its frequency is highly stable and is determined by a single external capacitor. The operational amplifier can be used for audio preamplification in FM detector applications or as a high speed sense amplifier (or comparator) in FSK demodulation. This terminal should be DC biased as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, and AC grounded with a bypass capacitor. Phase Comparator Bias (Pin 5) Phase Comparator Outputs (Pins 2 and 3) The low frequency (or DC) voltage across these pins corresponds to the phase difference between the two signals at the phase comparator inputs (pins 4 and 6). The phase comparator outputs are internally connected to the VCO control terminals (see Figure 2.) One of the outputs (pin 3) is internally connected to the noninverting input of the operational amplifier. The low-pass filter is achieved by connecting an RC network to the phase comparator outputs as shown in Figure 15. DESCRIPTION OF CIRCUIT CONTROLS Phase Comparator Inputs (Pins 4 and 6) One input to the phase comparator is used as the signal input. The remaining input should be AC coupled to the Rev. 1.01 6 XR-215A +12V 5K 5K 0.1F 0.1F 2K 2K U1 6 Signal Input 5K 1K Sweep Input 16 VCC 5 0.1F Vs S4 750 4 S5 XR-215A 11 12 S3 Phase Comp. 0.1F 15 VCO Op Amp 10 VEE 9 13 2 14 3 1 8 10K S1 RP 10K 100pF 2nF 2nF 50 50 RF 100K Figure 3.

XR-215A Op Amp Frequency Response VCO Sweep Input (Pin 12) The VCO Frequency can be swept over a broad range by applying an analog sweep voltage, VS, to pin 12 (see Figure 10.) The impedance looking into the sweep input is approximately 50W. Therefore, for sweep applications, a current limiting resistor, RS, should be connected in series with this terminal. Typical sweep characteristics of the circuit are shown in Figure 10. The VCO temperature dependence is minimum when the sweep input is not used. CAUTION: For safe operation of the circuit, the maximum current, IS, drawn from the sweep terminal should be limited to 5mA or less under all operating conditions. ON-OFF KEYING: With pin 10 open circuited, the VCO can be keyed off by applying a positive voltage pulse to the sweep input terminal. With RS = 2kW, oscillations will stop if the applied potential at pin 12 is raised 3 volts above its open-circuit value. When sweep, sync, or on-off keying functions are not used, RS is not necessary.

Explanation of VCO Range-Select Controls Range-Select (Pin 10) The range select terminal can also be used for fine tuning the VCO frequency, by varying the value of RX. Similarly, the VCO frequency can be changed in discrete steps by switching in different values of RX between pins 9 and 10. The frequency range of the XR-215A can be extended by connecting an external resistor, RX, between pins 9 and 10. With reference to Figure 12, the operation of the range-select terminal can be explained as follows: The VCO frequency is proportional to the sum of currents I1 and I2 through transistors T1 and T2 on the monolithic chip. These transistors are biased from a fixed internal reference. The current I1 is set internally, whereas I2 is set by the external resistor RX. Thus, at any C0 setting, the VCO frequency can be expressed as: f0 f1 Digital Programming Using the range select control, the VCO frequency can be stepped in a binary manner, by applying a logic signal to pin 10, as shown in Figure 12. For high level logic inputs, transistor T2 is turned off, and RX is effectively switched out of the circuit. Using the digital programming capability, the XR-215A can be time-multiplexed between two separate input frequencies, as shown in Figure 19 and Figure 20. 1 0.6 R X Amplifier Input (Pin 1) where f1 is the frequency with pin 10 open circuited and RX is in kW. External resistor RX (750W) is recommended for operation at frequencies in excess of 5MHz. This pin provides the inverting input for the operational amplifier section. Normally it is connected to pin 2 through a 10 kW external resistor (see Figure 3 or Figure 4.) Rev. 1.01 15 XR-215A Amplifier Output (Pin 8) This pin is used as the output terminal for FM or FSK demodulation. The amplifier gain is determined by the external feedback resistor, RF, connected between pins 1 and 8. Frequency response characteristics of the amplifier section are shown in Figure 11. applied to the control terminal of the VCO. If the input frequency, fs, is sufficiently close to fo, the feedback nature of the PLL causes the VCO to synchronize or “lock” with the incoming signal. Once in lock, the VCO frequency is identical to the input signal, except for a finite phase difference. Amplifier Compensation (Pin 7) A Linearized Model for PLL When the PLL is in lock, it can be approximated by the linear feedback system shown in Figure 14. Os and Oo are the respective phase angles associated with the input signal and the VCO output, F(s) is the low-pass filter response in frequency domain, and Kd and Ko are the conversion gains associated with the phase comparator and VCO sections of the PLL. The operational amplifier can be compensated for unity gain by a single 300pF capacitor from pin 7 to ground. (See Figure 11.) BASIC PHASE-LOCKED LOOP OPERATION Principle of Operation DEFINITION OF XR-215A PARAMETERS USED FOR PLL APPLICATIONS DESIGN The phase-locked loop (PLL) is a unique and versatile circuit technique which provides frequency selective tuning and filtering without the need for coils or inductors. As shown in Figure 13, the PLL is a feedback system comprised of three basic functional blocks: phase comparator, low-pass filter and voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). The basic principle of operation of a PLL can be briefly explained as follows: with no input signal applied to the system, the error voltage Vd, is equal to zero. The VCO operates at a set frequency, fo, which is known as the “free-running” frequency. If an input signal is applied to the system, the phase comparator compares the phase and frequency of the input signal with the VCO frequency and generates an error voltage, Ve(t), that is related to the phase and frequency difference between the two signals. This error voltage is then filtered and Input Signal VS(t) fs Phase Comparator VCO Free-Running Frequency, fo The VCO frequency with no input signal is determined by selection of C0 across pins 13 and 14 and can be increased by connecting an external resistor RX between pins 9 and 10. It can be approximated as: ǒ Ǔ f 0 [ 220 1 ) 0.6 RX C0 where C0 is in mF and RX is in kW. (See Figure 8.) Ve(t) Lowpass Filter Vd(t) VO(t) fo VCO Vd(t) Figure 13. Block Diagram of a Phase-Locked Loop Rev. 1.01 16 XR-215A Lock Range (DwL) Os Kd The range of frequencies in the vicinity of fo, over which the PLL can maintain lock with an input signal. It is also known as the “tracking” or “holding” range. If saturation or limiting does not occur, the lock range is equal to the loop gain, i.e. DwL = KT = KdKo. F(s) - O0 Ko s Capture Range (DwC) The band of frequencies in the vicinity of fo where the PLL can establish or acquire lock with an input signal. It is also known as the “acquisition” range. It is always smaller than the lock range and is related to the low-pass filter bandwidth. It can be approximated by a parametric equation of the form: Figure 14. Linearized Model of a PLL as a Negative Feedback System C L |F(jC )| where |F(jDwC| is the low-pass filter magnitude response at w = DwC. For a simple lag filter, it can be expressed as: Phase Comparator Gain Kd C [ The output voltage from the phase comparator per radian of phase difference at the phase comparator inputs (pins 4 and 6). The units are volts/radians. (See Figure 9.) Ǹ L T1 where T1 is the filter time constant. VCO Conversion Gain Ko Amplifier Gain AV The VCO voltage-to-frequency conversion gain is determined by the choice of timing capacitor C0 and gain control resistor, R0 connected externally across pins 11 and 12. It can be expressed as: The voltage gain of the amplifier section is determined by feedback resistors RF and Rp between pins (8,1) and (2,1) respectively. (See Figure 3 and Figure 4.) It is given by: K 0 [ 700 (radians/sec/volt) C 0R 0 AV [ where C0 is in mF and R0 is in kW. For most applications, recommended values for R0 range from 1kW to 10kW. –R F R1 ) RP where R1 is the (6kW) internal impedance at pin 2. Rev. 1.01 17 XR-215A Low-Pass Filter transfer functions are shown in Figure 15 where R1 (6kW) is the internal impedance at pins 2 and 3. It should be noted that the rejection of the low pass filter decreases above 2MHz when the capacitor is tied from pin 2 to 3. The low-pass filter section is formed by connecting an external capacitor or RC network across terminals 2 and 3. The low-pass filter components can be connected either between pins 2 and 3 or, from each pin to ground.

Circuit Connection for FM Demodulation APPLICATIONS INFORMATION FM Demodulation Figure 16 shows the external circuit connections to the XR-215A for frequency-selective FM demodulation. The choice of C0 is determined by the FM carrier frequency (see Figure 8.) The low-pass filter capacitor C1 is determined by the selectivity requirements. For carrier frequencies of 1 to 10MHz, C1 is in the range of 10⋅C0 to 30⋅C0. The feedback resistor RF can be used as a “volume-control” adjustment to set the amplitude of the demodulated output. The demodulated output amplitude is proportional to the FM deviation and to resistors R0 and RF for +1% FM deviation it can be approximated as: ǒ Ǔ V OUT [ R 0R F 1 ) 0.6 mV, rms RX where all resistors are in kW and RX is the range extension resistor connected across pins 9 and 10. For circuit operation below 5MHz, RX can be omitted. For operation above 5MHz, RX 750W is recommended.

Figure 19 shows a practical circuit configuration for time-multiplexing the XR-215A between two FM channels, at 1MHz and 1.1MHz respectively. The channel-select logic signal is applied to pin 10, as shown in Figure 19 with both input channels simultaneously present at the PLL input (pin 4). Figure 20 shows the demodulated output as a function of the channel-select pulse where the two inputs have sinusoidal and triangular FM modulation respectively.

Demodulated Output Waveforms for Time-Multiplexed Operation Typical component values for 300 baud and 1200 baud operation are listed below: FSK Demodulation Figure 21 contains a typical circuit connection for FSK demodulation. When the input frequency is shifted, corresponding to a data bit, the DC voltage at the phase comparator outputs (pins 2 and 3) also reverses polarity. The operational amplifier section is connected as a comparator, and converts the DC level shift to a binary output pulse. One of the phase comparator outputs (pin 3) is AC grounded and serves as the bias reference for the operational amplifier section. Capacitor C1 serves as the PLL loop filter, and C2 and C3 as post-detection filters. Range select resistor, RX, can be used as a fine-tune adjustment to set the VCO frequency.

Typical Component Values for Modems Note: For 300 Baud operation the circuit can be time-multiplexed between high and low bands by switching the external resistor RX in and out of the circuit with a control signal, as shown in Figure 12. FSK Generation The digital programming capability of the XR-215A can be used for FSK generation. A typical circuit connection for this application is shown in Figure 22. The VCO frequency can be shifted between the mark (f2) and space (f1) frequencies by applying a logic pulse to pin 10. The circuit can provide two separate FSK outputs: a low level (2.5 Vp-p) output at pin 15 or a high amplitude (10 Vp-p) output at pin 8. The output at each of these terminals is a symmetrical squarewave with a typical second harmonic content of less than 0.3%.

Circuit Connection For FSK Generation Frequency Synthesis In frequency synthesis applications, a programmable counter or divide-by-N circuit is connected between the VCO output (pin 15) and one of the phase detector inputs (pins 4 or 6), as shown in Figure 23. The principle of operation of the circuit can be briefly explained as follows: The counter divides down the oscillator frequency by the programmable divider modulus, N. Thus, when the entire system is phase-locked to an input signal at frequency, fs, the oscillator output at pin 15 is at a frequency (Nfs), where N is the divider modulus. By proper choice of the divider modulus, a large number of discrete frequencies can be synthesized from a given reference frequency. The low-pass filter capacitor C1 is normally chosen to provide a cut-off frequency equal to 0.1% to 2% of the signal frequency, fs.

The digital or analog tuning characteristics of the VCO can be used to extend the available range of frequencies of the system, for a given setting of the timing capacitor C0.

Recommended components are: The wide tracking range of the XR-215A allows the system to track an input signal over a 3:1 frequency range, centered about the VCO free running frequency. The tracking range is maximum when the binary rangeselect (pin 10) is open circuited. The circuit connections for this application are shown in Figure 25. Typical tracking range for a given input signal amplitude is shown values of 1kW < R0 < 4kW and 30 C0 < C1 < 300 C0 where the timing capacitor C0 is determined by the center frequency requirements (see Figure 8.) +12V 5K 5K 0.1mF 0.1mF 2K 2K U1 5 0.1mF Signal Input Vs Ro 6 16 VCC 2K Phase Comp. 4 Cc XR-215A 11 12 15 VCO 10 VEE 9 13 8 Op Amp. 14 external 2 31 VCO Output 10K 7 C0 10K 300pF Discriminator Output RF RP 20K C1 C1 50 50 Figure 25. Circuit Connection For Tracking Filter Applications Rev. 1.01 26 XR-215A The phase-comparator output voltage is a linear measure of the VCO frequency deviation from its free-running value. The amplifier section, therefore, can be used to provide a filtered and amplified version of the loop error voltage. In this case, the DC output level at pin 15 can be adjusted to be directly proportional to the difference between the VCO free-running frequency, fo, and the input signal, fs. The entire system can operate as a “linear discriminator” or analog “frequency-meter” over a 3:1 change of input frequency. The discriminator gain can be adjusted by proper choice of R0 or RF, for the test circuit of Figure 25, the discriminator output is approximately (0.7 R0RF) mV per % of frequency deviation where R0 and RF are in kW. Output non-linearity is typically less than 1% for frequency deviations up to +15%. Figure 28 shows the normalized output characteristics as a function of input frequency, with R0 = 2kW and RF = 36kW. Crystal-Controlled PLL The XR-215A can be operated as a crystal-controlled phase-locked loop by replacing the timing capacitor with a crystal. A circuit connection for this application is shown in Figure 28. Normally a small tuning capacitor ( 30pF) is required in series with the crystal to set the crystal frequency. For this application the crystal should be operated in its fundamental mode. Typical pull-in range of the circuits is +1kHz at 10MHz. There is some distortion on the demodulated output. 1000 ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ Signal Input (mV rms) R0 = 2kW Tracking Range 100 10 1.0 0.5 1.0 Normalized Temperature Range (f/fo) Figure 26.
