FEATURES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
RF bandwidth to 4 GHz
2.7 V to 3.3 V power supply
The ADF4153 is a fractional-N frequency synthesizer
that implements local oscillators in the upconversion
and downconversion sections of wireless receivers and
transmitters. It consists of a low noise digital phase
frequency detector (PFD), a precision charge pump, and
a programmable reference divider. There is a Σ-Δ based
fractional interpolator to allow programmable fractional-N
division. The INT, FRAC, and MOD registers define an
overall N divider (N = (INT + (FRAC/MOD))). In addition,
the 4-bit reference counter (R counter) allows selectable
REFIN frequencies at the PFD input. A complete phase-
locked loop (PLL) can be implemented if the synthesizer is
used with an external loop filter and a voltage controlled
oscillator (VCO).
Separate VP allows extended tuning voltage

1 Operating temperature for B version is −40°C to +85°C.
2 Operating temperature for Y version is −40°C to +125°C.
3 AC coupling ensures AVDD/2 bias.
4 Guaranteed by design. Sample tested to ensure compliance.
5 The synthesizer phase noise floor is estimated by measuring the in-band phase noise at the output of the VCO and subtracting 20 log(N) (where N is the N divider
value) and 10 log(FPFD). PNSYNTH = PNTOT − 10 log(FPFD) − 20 log(N).
6 The PLL phase noise is composed of 1/f (flicker) noise plus the normalized PLL noise floor. The formula for calculating the 1/f noise contribution at an RF frequency, FRF,
and at an offset frequency, f, is given by PN = P1_f + 10 log(10 kHz/f) + 20 log(FRF/1 GHz). Both the normalized phase noise floor and flicker noise are modeled in ADIsimPLL.
7 The phase noise is measured with the EV-ADF4153SD1Z and the Agilent E5500 phase noise system.
8 fREFIN = 100 MHz; FPFD = 25 MHz; offset frequency = 5 kHz; RFOUT = 1750 MHz; N = 70; loop BW = 20 kHz; lowest noise mode.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
REFERENCE INPUT SECTION
RF INT DIVIDER
The reference input stage is shown in Figure 11. SW1 and SW2
are normally closed switches. SW3 is normally open. When
power-down is initiated, SW3 is closed and SW1 and SW2 are
opened. This ensures that there is no loading of the REFIN pin
on power-down.
The RF INT CMOS counter allows a division ratio in the PLL
feedback counter. Division ratios from 31 to 511 are allowed.
INT, FRAC, MOD, AND R RELATIONSHIP
The INT, FRAC, and MOD values, in conjunction with the
R counter, make it possible to generate output frequencies that
are spaced by fractions of the phase frequency detector (PFD).
See the RF Synthesizer: A Worked Example section for more
information. The RF VCO frequency (RFOUT) equation is

PHASE FREQUENCY DETECTOR (PFD) AND
CHARGE PUMP
INPUT SHIFT REGISTERS
The ADF4153 digital section includes a 4-bit RF R counter,
a 9-bit RF N counter, a 12-bit FRAC counter, and a 12-bit
modulus counter. Data is clocked into the 24-bit shift register
on each rising edge of CLK. The data is clocked in MSB first.
Data is transferred from the shift register to one of four latches
on the rising edge of LE. The destination latch is determined by
the state of the two control bits (C2 and C1) in the shift register.
These are the 2 LSBs, DB1 and DB0, as shown in Figure 2. The
truth table for these bits is shown in Table 5. Table 6 shows a
summary of how the registers are programmed.
The PFD takes inputs from the R counter and N counter and
produces an output proportional to the phase and frequency
difference between them. Figure 14 is a simplified schematic of
the phase frequency detector. The PFD includes a fixed delay
element that sets the width of the antibacklash pulse, which is
typically 3 ns. This pulse ensures that there is no dead zone in the
PFD transfer function and gives a consistent reference spur level.

The ADF4153 programmable modulus is double buffered. This
means that two events have to occur before the part uses a new
modulus value. First, the new modulus value is latched into the
device by writing to the R divider register. Second, a new write
must be performed on the N divider register. Therefore, to
ensure that the modulus value is loaded correctly, the N divider
register must be written to any time that the modulus value is
updated.

Prescaler (P/P + 1)
N DIVIDER REGISTER, R0
The dual-modulus prescaler (P/P + 1), along with the INT,
FRAC, and MOD counters, determines the overall division ratio
from the RFIN to the PFD input.
With R0[1, 0] set to [0, 0], the on-chip N divider register
is programmed. Table 7 shows the input data format for
programming this register.
Operating at CML levels, it takes the clock from the RF input
stage and divides it down for the counters. It is based on a
synchronous 4/5 core. When set to 4/5, the maximum RF
frequency allowed is 2 GHz. Therefore, when operating the
ADF4153 above 2 GHz, this must be set to 8/9. The prescaler
limits the INT value.
9-Bit INT Value
These nine bits control what is loaded as the INT value. This is
used to determine the overall feedback division factor. It is used
in Equation 1 (see the INT, FRAC, MOD, and R Relationship
section).
12-Bit FRAC Value
With P = 4/5, NMIN = 31.
With P = 8/9, NMIN = 91.
4-Bit R Counter
These 12 bits control what is loaded as the FRAC value into the
fractional interpolator. This is part of what determines the
overall feedback division factor. It is also used in Equation 1.
The FRAC value must be less than or equal to the value loaded
into the MOD register.
The 4-bit R counter allows the input reference frequency
(REFIN) to be divided down to produce the reference clock to
the phase frequency detector (PFD). Division ratios from 1 to
15 are allowed.
Fastlock
When set to logic high, fastlock is enabled. This sets the charge
pump current to its maximum value. When set to logic low, the
charge pump current is equal to the value programmed into the
function register. Also, if MUXOUT is programmed to setting
the fastlock switch, MUXOUT is shorted to ground when the
fastlock bit is 1 and is high impedance when this bit is 0.
12-Bit Interpolator MOD Value
These programmable bits set the fractional modulus. This is the
ratio of the PFD frequency to the channel step resolution on the
RF output. Refer to the RF Synthesizer: A Worked Example
section for more information.
The ADF4153 programmable modulus is double buffered. This
means that two events have to occur before the part uses a new
modulus value. First, the new modulus value is latched into the
device by writing to the R divider register. Second, a new write
must be performed on the N divider register. Therefore, any
time that the modulus value has been updated, the N divider
register must then be written to in order to ensure that the
modulus value is loaded correctly.
R DIVIDER REGISTER, R1
With R1[1, 0] set to [0, 1], the on-chip R divider register is
programmed. Table 8 shows the input data format for
programming this register.
Load Control
When set to logic high, the value being programmed in the
modulus is not loaded into the modulus. Instead, it sets the
resync delay of the Σ-Δ. This is done to ensure phase resync
when changing frequencies. See the Phase Resync section for
more information and a worked example.
CONTROL REGISTER, R2
With R2[1, 0] set to [1, 0], the on-chip control register
is programmed. Table 9 shows the input data format for
programming this register.
MUXOUT
The on-chip multiplexer is controlled by DB22, DB21, and
DB20 on the ADF4153. See Table 8 for the truth table.
RF Counter Reset
DB2 is the RF counter reset bit for the ADF4153. When this
is 1, the RF synthesizer counters are held in reset. For normal
operation, this bit should be 0.
Digital Lock Detect
The digital lock detect output goes high if there are 24 succes-
sive PFD cycles with an input error of less than 15 ns (for LDP
is 0, see the Control Register, R2 section for a more thorough
explanation of the LDP bit). It stays high until a new channel is
programmed or until the error at the PFD input exceeds 30 ns
for one or more cycles. If the loop bandwidth is narrow compared
to the PFD frequency, the error at the PFD inputs may drop
below 15 ns for 24 cycles around a cycle slip. Therefore, the
digital lock detect may go falsely high for a short period until
the error again exceeds 30 ns. In this case, the digital lock detect
is reliable only as a loss-of-lock detector.
RF Charge Pump Three-State
DB3 puts the charge pump into three-state mode when
programmed to 1. It should be set to 0 for normal operation.
RF Power-Down
DB4 on the ADF4153 provides the programmable power-down
mode. Setting this bit to 1 performs a power-down. Setting this
bit to 0 returns the synthesizer to normal operation. While in
software power-down mode, the part retains all information in
its registers. Only when supplies are removed are the register
contents lost.
Rev. F | Page 16 of 24
Data Sheet
ADF4153
When a power-down is activated, the following events occur:
1. All active dc current paths are removed.
NOISE AND SPUR REGISTER, R3
With R3[1, 0] set to [1, 1], the on-chip noise and spur register
is programmed. Table 10 shows the input data format for
programming this register.
2. The synthesizer counters are forced to their load state
conditions.
3. The charge pump is forced into three-state mode.
4. The digital lock detect circuitry is reset.
5. The RFIN input is debiased.
Noise and Spur Mode
Noise and spur mode allows the user to optimize a design either
for improved spurious performance or for improved phase
noise performance. When the low spur setting is chosen, dither
is enabled. This randomizes the fractional quantization noise so
that it resembles white noise rather than spurious noise. As a
result, the part is optimized for improved spurious
performance. This operation would normally be used when the
PLL closed-loop bandwidth is wide, for fast-locking applica-
tions. (Wide-loop bandwidth is seen as a loop bandwidth
greater than 1/10 of the RFOUT channel step resolution (fRES).) A
wide-loop filter does not attenuate the spurs to the same level as
a narrow-loop bandwidth.
6. The input register remains active and capable of loading
and latching data.
Lock Detect Precision (LDP)
When DB5 is programmed to 0, 24 consecutive PFD cycles of
15 ns must occur before digital lock detect is set. When this bit
is programmed to 1, 40 consecutive reference cycles of 15 ns
must occur before digital lock detect is set.
Phase Detector Polarity
DB6 in the ADF4153 sets the phase detector polarity. When the
VCO characteristics are positive, this should be set to 1. When
they are negative, it should be set to 0.
When the low noise and spur setting is enabled, dither is
disabled. This optimizes the synthesizer to operate with
improved noise performance. However, the spurious
performance is degraded in this mode compared to the low
spur setting.
Charge Pump Current Setting
DB7, DB8, DB9, and DB10 set the charge pump current setting.
This should be set to the charge pump current that the loop
filter is designed with (see Table 9).
To further improve noise performance, the lowest noise setting
option can be used, which reduces the phase noise. As well as
disabling the dither, it also ensures that the charge pump is
operating in an optimum region for noise performance. This
setting is extremely useful where a narrow-loop filter band-
width is available. The synthesizer ensures extremely low noise
and the filter attenuates the spurs. The typical performance
characteristics give the user an idea of the trade-off in a typical
W-CDMA setup for the different noise and spur settings.
REFIN Doubler
Setting DB11 to 0 feeds the REFIN signal directly to the 4-bit RF
R counter, disabling the doubler. Setting this bit to 1 multiplies
the REFIN frequency by a factor of 2 before feeding into the 4-bit
R counter. When the doubler is disabled, the REFIN falling edge
is the active edge at the PFD input to the fractional synthesizer.
When the doubler is enabled, both the rising and falling edges
of REFIN become active edges at the PFD input.
RESERVED BITS
When the doubler is enabled and the lowest spur mode is chosen,
the in-band phase noise performance is sensitive to the REFIN
duty cycle. The phase noise degradation can be as much as 5 dB
for the REFIN duty cycles outside a 45% to 55% range. The phase
noise is insensitive to the REFIN duty cycle in the lowest noise
mode and in the lowest noise and spur mode. The phase noise
is insensitive to REFIN duty cycle when the doubler is disabled.
These bits should be set to 0 for normal operation.
The maximum allowed REFIN frequency when the doubler is
enabled is 30 MHz.
Rev. F | Page 17 of 24
ADF4153
Data Sheet
For example, in a GSM 1800 system, where 1.8 GHz RF
INITIALIZATION SEQUENCE
frequency output (RFOUT) is required, a 13 MHz reference
frequency input (REFIN) is available and a 200 kHz channel
resolution (fRES) is required on the RF output.
The following initialization sequence should be followed upon
powering up the part:
1. Write all zeros to the noise and spur register. This ensures
that all test modes are cleared.
MOD = REFIN/fRES
MOD = 13 MHz/200 kHz = 65
2. Write again to the noise and spur register, this time
selecting which noise and spur mode is required. For
example, writing Hexadecimal 0003C7 to the part selects
lowest noise mode.
3. Enable the counter reset in the control register by writing a
1 to DB2; also select the required settings in the control
register. If using the phase resync function, set the resync
bits to the required settings.
From Equation 4:
F
PFD = [13 MHz × (1 + 0)/1] = 13 MHz
(5)
(6)
1.8 G = 13 MHz × (INT + FRAC/65)
where INT = 138; FRAC = 30
MODULUS
The choice of modulus (MOD) depends on the reference signal
(REFIN) available and the channel resolution (fRES) required at
the RF output. For example, a GSM system with 13 MHz REFIN sets
4. Load the R divider register (with load control DB23
set to 0).
5. Load the N divider register.
6. Disable the counter reset by writing a 0 to DB2 in the
control register.
the modulus to 65. This means that the RF output resolution (fRES
is the 200 kHz (13 MHz/65) necessary for GSM. With dither off,
the fractional spur interval depends on the modulus values chosen.
See Table 11 for more information.
)
The part now locks to the set frequency.
REFERENCE DOUBLER AND REFERENCE DIVIDER
If using the phase resync function, an extra step is needed after
Step 3. This involves loading the R divider register with load
control = 1 and the required delay interval in place of the MOD
value. The previous sequence can then be followed ensuring
that in Step 4 the value of MOD is written to the R divider
register with load control = 0.
The reference doubler on-chip allows the input reference signal
to be doubled. This is useful for increasing the PFD comparison
frequency. Making the PFD frequency higher improves the
noise performance of the system. Doubling the PFD frequency
usually improves noise performance by 3 dB. It is important to
note that the PFD cannot be operated above 32 MHz due to a
limitation in the speed of the Σ-Δ circuit of the N divider.
See the Spur Consistency and Phase Resync sections for more
information on the phase resync feature.
12-BIT PROGRAMMABLE MODULUS
RF SYNTHESIZER: A WORKED EXAMPLE
Unlike most other fractional-N PLLs, the ADF4153 allows the
user to program the modulus over a 12-bit range. This means
that the user can set up the part in many different configu-
rations for the application, when combined with the reference
doubler and the 4-bit R counter.
The following equation governs how the synthesizer is
programmed:
RFOUT = [INT + (FRAC/MOD)] × [FPFD
]
(3)
(4)
where:
RFOUT is the RF frequency output.
INT is the integer division factor.
FRAC is the fractionality.
The following is an example of an application that requires
1.75 GHz RF and 200 kHz channel step resolution. The system
has a 13 MHz reference signal.
MOD is the modulus.
One possible setup is feeding the 13 MHz directly to the PFD
and programming the modulus to divide by 65. This results in
the required 200 kHz resolution.
The PFD frequency is given by:
F
PFD = [REFIN × (1 + D)/R]
where:
Another possible setup is using the reference doubler to create
26 MHz from the 13 MHz input signal. This 26 MHz is then fed
into the PFD. The modulus is now programmed to divide by
130. This also results in 200 kHz resolution and offers superior
phase noise performance over the previous setup.
REFIN is the reference frequency input.
D is the RF REFIN doubler bit.
R is the RF reference division factor.

The programmable modulus is also very useful for multi-
standard applications. If a dual-mode phone requires PDC
and GSM 1800 standards, the programmable modulus is of
great benefit. PDC requires 25 kHz channel step resolution,
whereas GSM 1800 requires 200 kHz channel step resolution.
A 13 MHz reference signal can be fed directly to the PFD.
The modulus is programmed to 520 when in PDC mode
(13 MHz/520 = 25 kHz). The modulus is reprogrammed to
65for GSM 1800 operation (13 MHz/65 = 200 kHz). It is
important that the PFD frequency remains constant (13 MHz).
This allows the user to design one loop filter that can be used in
both setups without running into stability issues. It is the ratio
of the RF frequency to the PFD frequency that affects the loop
design. By keeping this relationship constant, the same loop
filter can be used in both applications.
When the PLL has locked to the new frequency, the charge
pump is again programmed to the lowest charge pump current
setting by setting the fastlock bit to 0. The internal switch opens
and the damping resistor reverts to its original value. This
narrows the loop bandwidth to its original cutoff frequency
to allow better attenuation of the spurs than the wide-loop
bandwidth.
SPUR MECHANISMS
The following section describes the three different spur mechan-
isms that arise with a fractional-N synthesizer and how to
minimize them in the ADF4153.
Fractional Spurs
The fractional interpolator in the ADF4153 is a third-order Σ-Δ
modulator (SDM) with a modulus (MOD) that is programmable
to any integer value from 2 to 4095. In low spur mode (dither
enabled), the minimum allowed value of MOD is 50. The SDM
is clocked at the PFD reference rate (FPFD) that allows PLL
output frequencies to be synthesized at a channel step
resolution of FPFD/MOD.
FASTLOCK WITH SPURIOUS OPTIMIZATION
As mentioned in the Noise and Spur Mode section, the part can
be optimized for spurious performance. However, in fastlocking
applications, the loop bandwidth needs to be wide, and
therefore the filter does not provide much attenuation of the
spurs. The programmable charge pump can be used to get
around this issue. The filter is designed for a narrow-loop
bandwidth so that steady-state spurious specifications are met.
This is designed using the lowest charge pump current setting.
In lowest noise mode and low noise and spur mode (dither off),
the quantization noise from the Σ-Δ modulator appears as frac-
tional spurs. The interval between spurs is FPFD/L, where L is the
repeat length of the code sequence in the digital Σ-Δ modulator.
For the third-order modulator used in the ADF4153, the repeat
length depends on the value of MOD, as shown in Table 11.
To implement fastlock during a frequency jump, the charge
pump current is set to the maximum setting for the duration of
the jump by asserting the fastlock bit in the N divider register.
This widens the loop bandwidth, which improves lock time. To
maintain loop stability while in wide bandwidth mode, the loop
filter needs to be modified. This is achieved by switching in a
resistor (R1A) in parallel with the damping resistor in the loop
filter (see Figure 16). MUXOUT needs to be set to the fastlock
switch to use the internal switch. For example, if the charge
pump current is increased by 16, the damping resistor, R1,
needs to be decreased by ¼ while in wide bandwidth mode.

In low spur mode (dither enabled), the repeat length is
extended to 221 cycles, regardless of the value of MOD, which
makes the quantization error spectrum look like broadband
noise. This can degrade the in-band phase noise at the PLL
output by as much as 10 dB. Therefore, for lowest noise, dither
off is a better choice, particularly when the final loop BW is low
enough to attenuate even the lowest frequency fractional spur.

Integer Boundary Spurs
Another mechanism for fractional spur creation is interactions
between the RF VCO frequency and the reference frequency.
When these frequencies are not integer related (which is the
point of a fractional-N synthesizer), spur sidebands appear on
the VCO output spectrum at an offset frequency that corresponds
to the beat note or difference frequency between an integer
multiple of the reference and the VCO frequency.
Figure 16. ADF4153 with Fastlock
The value of R1A is then chosen so that the total parallel
resistance of R1 and R1A equals 1/4 of R1 alone. This gives
an overall 4× increase in loop bandwidth, while maintaining
stability in wide bandwidth mode.
These spurs are attenuated by the loop filter and are more
noticeable on channels close to integer multiples of the
reference where the difference frequency can be inside the
loop bandwidth, therefore, the name integer boundary spurs.

Reference Spurs
LE
tSYNC
Reference spurs are generally not a problem in fractional-N
synthesizers because the reference offset is far outside the
loop bandwidth. However, any reference feedthrough mechan-
ism that bypasses the loop can cause a problem. One such
mechanism is feedthrough of low levels of on-chip reference
switching noise out through the RFIN pin back to the VCO,
resulting in reference spur levels as high as –90 dBc. Care
should be taken in the PCB layout to ensure that the VCO
is well separated from the input reference to avoid a possible
feed-through path on the board.

SPUR CONSISTENCY
When jumping from Frequency A to Frequency B and then
back again using some fractional-N synthesizers, the spur levels
often differ each time Frequency A is programmed. However,
in the ADF4153, the spur levels on any particular channel are
always consistent.

FILTER DESIGN—ADIsimPLL
A filter design and analysis program is available to help the user
implement PLL design. Visit www.analog.com/pll for a free
download of the ADIsimPLL software. The software designs,
simulates, and analyzes the entire PLL frequency domain and
time domain response. Various passive and active filter
architectures are allowed.
PHASE RESYNC
The output of a fractional-N PLL can settle to any one of MOD
phase offsets with respect to the input reference, where MOD
is the fractional modulus. The phase resync feature in the
ADF4153 can be used to produce a consistent output phase
offset with respect to the input reference. This is necessary
in applications where the output phase and frequency are
important, such as digital beam-forming.
INTERFACING
The ADF4153 has a simple SPI®-compatible serial interface
for writing to the device. CLK, DATA, and LE control the data
transfer. When latch enable (LE) is high, the 22 bits that are
clocked into the input register on each rising edge of SCLK are
transferred to the appropriate latch. See Figure 2 for the timing
diagram and Table 5 for the register truth table.
When phase resync is enabled, an internal timer generates sync
signals at intervals of tSYNC given by the following formula:
tSYNC = RESYNC × RESYNC_DELAY × tPFD
The maximum allowable serial clock rate is 20 MHz.
where tPFD is the PFD reference period.
ADuC812 Interface
RESYNC is the decimal value programmed in Bits DB[15…12]
of Register R2 and can be any integer in the range of 1 to 15. If
RESYNC is programmed to its default value of all zeros, then
the phase resync feature is disabled.
Figure 18 shows the interface between the ADF4153 and the
ADuC812 MicroConverter®. Because the ADuC812 is based on
an 8051 core, this interface can be used with any 8051-based
micro-controller. The MicroConverter is set up for SPI master
mode with CPHA = 0. To initiate the operation, the I/O port
driving LE is brought low. Each latch of the ADF4153 needs a 24-
bit word, which is accomplished by writing three 8-bit bytes from
the MicroConverter to the device. After the third byte is written,
the LE input should be brought high to complete the transfer.
If phase resync is enabled, then RESYNC_DELAY must be
programmed to a value that is an integer multiple of the value
of MOD. RESYNC_DELAY is the decimal value programmed
into the MOD bits (DB[13…3] of Register R1 when load
control (Bit DB23 of Register R1) = 1.
When a new frequency is programmed, the second next sync
pulse after the LE rising edge is used to resynchronize the output
phase to the reference. The tSYNC time should be programmed to
a value that is at least as long as the worst-case lock time. Doing
so guarantees that the phase resync occurs after the last cycle
slip in the PLL settling transient.

RESYNC_DELAY = 1000.

When operating in this mode, the maximum SCLOCK rate of
the ADuC812 is 4 MHz. This means that the maximum rate at
which the output frequency can be changed is 180 kHz.
PCB DESIGN GUIDELINES FOR CHIP SCALE
PACKAGE
The lands on the chip scale package (CP-20) are rectangular.
The printed circuit board (PCB) pad for these should be 0.1 mm
longer than the package land length and 0.05 mm wider than
the package land width. The land should be centered on the
pad. This ensures that the solder joint size is maximized.
ADSP-21xx Interface
Figure 19 shows the interface between the ADF4153 and the
ADSP-21xx digital signal processor. As discussed previously,
the ADF4153 needs a 24-bit serial word for each latch write.
The easiest way to accomplish this using the ADSP-21xx family
is to use the autobuffered transmit mode of operation with
alternate framing. This provides a means for transmitting an
entire block of serial data before an interrupt is generated.
Set up the word length for eight bits and use three memory
locations for each 24-bit word. To program each 24-bit latch,
store the three 8-bit bytes, enable the autobuffered mode, and
write to the transmit register of the DSP. This last operation
initiates the autobuffer transfer.
The bottom of the chip scale package has a central thermal pad.
The thermal pad on the PCB should be at least as large as this
exposed pad. On the PCB, there should be a clearance of at least
0.25 mm between the thermal pad and the inner edges of the
pad pattern. This ensures that shorting is avoided.
Thermal vias can be used on the PCB thermal pad to improve
thermal performance of the package. If vias are used, they should
be incorporated in the thermal pad at 1.2 mm pitch grid. The
via diameter should be between 0.3 mm and 0.33 mm, and the
via barrel should be plated with one ounce of copper to plug the
via. The user should connect the PDB thermal pad to AGND.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
LOCAL OSCILLATOR FOR A GSM BASE STATION
TRANSMITTER
The charge pump current is ICP = 5 mA. ADIsimPLL is used to
calculate the loop filter. It is designed for a loop bandwidth of
20 kHz and a phase margin of 45 degrees.
Figure 20 shows the ADF4153 being used with a VCO to
produce the local oscillator (LO) for a GSM base station
transmitter.
The loop filter output drives the VCO, which in turn is fed back
to the RF input of the PLL synthesizer. It also drives the RF output
terminal. A T-circuit configuration provides 50 Ω matching
between the VCO output, the RF output, and the RFIN terminal
of the synthesizer.
The reference input signal is applied to the circuit at REFIN and,
in this case, is terminated in 50 Ω. A 25 MHz reference is used,
which is fed directly to the PFD. To achieve 200 kHz channel
spacing, a modulus of 125 is necessary. Note that with a modulus
of 125, which is not divisible by 2, 3 or 6, subfractional spurs are
avoided. See the Spur Mechanisms section for more information.
In a PLL system, it is important to know when the loop is in
lock. This is achieved by using the MUXOUT signal from the
synthesizer. The MUXOUT pin can be programmed to monitor
various internal signals in the synthesizer. One of these is the
lock detect signal.
The charge pump output of the ADF4153 drives the loop filter.
