PROGRAM MODES
Tables IV and VII show how to set up the program modes in the
ADF4217L family. The following should be noted:
1. IF and RF Analog Lock Detect indicate when the PLL is in
lock. When the loop is locked, and either IF or RF Analog
Lock Detect is selected, the MUXOUT pin will show a logic
high with narrow low-going pulses. When the IF/RF Analog
Lock Detect is chosen, the locked condition is indicated only
when both IF and RF loops are locked.
2. The IF Counter Reset Mode resets the R and N counters in
the IF section and also puts the IF charge pump into three-
state. The RF Counter Reset Mode resets the R and N counters
in the RF section and also puts the RF charge pump into
three-state. The IF and RF Counter Reset Mode does both
of the above.
Upon removal of the reset bits, the N counter resumes counting
in close alignment with the R counter (maximum error is one
prescaler output cycle).
3. The Fastlock Mode uses MUXOUT to switch a second loop
filter damping resistor to ground during Fastlock operation.
Activation of Fastlock occurs whenever RF CP Gain in the
RF Reference counter is set to 1.
POWER-DOWN
It is possible to program the ADF4217L family for either synchro-
nous
or asynchronous power-down on either the IF or RF side.
Synchronous IF Power-Down
Programming a “1” to P7 of the ADF4217L family will initiate a
power-down. If P2 of the ADF4217L family has been set to “0”
(normal operation), then a synchronous power-down is conducted.
The device will automatically put the charge pump into three-
state and then complete the power-down.
Asynchronous IF Power-Down
If P2 of the ADF4217L family has been set to “1” (three-state the
IF charge pump) and P7 is subsequently set to “1,” an asynchro-
nous power-down is conducted. The device will go into power-down
on the rising edge of LE, which latches the “1” to the IF Power-
Down Bit (P7).
Synchronous RF Power-Down
Programming a “1” to P16 of the ADF4217L family will initiate a
power-down. If P10 of the ADF4217L family has been set to
“0”
(normal operation), a synchronous power-down is conducted.
The
device will automatically put the charge pump into three-state
and then complete the power-down.
Asynchronous RF Power-Down
If P10 of the ADF4217L family has been set to “1” (three-state
the RF charge pump) and P16 is subsequently set to “1,” an
asynchronous power-down is conducted. The device will go into
power-down on the rising edge of LE, which latches the “1” to
the RF Power-Down Bit (P16).
Activation of either synchronous or asynchronous power-down
forces the IF/RF loop’s R and N dividers to their load state
conditions, and the IF/RF input section is debiased to a high
impedance state.
The REF
IN
oscillator circuit is only disabled if both the IF and
RF power-downs are set.
The input register and latches remain active and are capable of
loading and latching data during all the power-down modes.
The IF/RF section of the devices will return to normal powered-up
operation immediately upon LE latching a “0” to the
appropriate
power-down bit.
IF SECTION
Programmable IF Reference (R) Counter
If control bits C2, C1 are 0, 0, then the data is transferred from
the input shift register to the 14-bit IF R counter. Table IV shows
the input shift register data format for the IF R counter and the
possible divide ratios.
IF Phase Detector Polarity
P1 sets the IF phase detector polarity. When the IF VCO
char-
acteristics are positive, this should be set to “1.” When they are
negative, it should be set to “0.” See Table IV.
IF Charge Pump Three-State
P2 puts the IF charge pump into three-state mode when programmed
to a “1.” It should be set to “0” for normal operation. See Table IV.
IF Charge Pump Currents
P5 sets the IF charge pump current. With P5 set to “0,” I
CP
is
1.0 mA. With P5 set to “1,” I
CP
is 4.0 mA. See Table IV.
Programmable IF AB Counter
If control bits C2, C1 are 0, 1, the data in the input register is
used to program the IF AB counter. For the ADF4217L/ADF4218L,
the AB counter consists of a 6-bit swallow counter (A counter)
and 11-bit programmable counter (B counter). Table V shows
the input register data format for programming the IF AB counter
and the possible divide ratios. The ADF4219L N
counter consists
of an 13-bit B counter and 5-bit A counter. Table VI shows the
input register data format for programming the ADF4219L.
IF Prescaler Value
P6 in the IF AB counter latch sets the IF prescaler value. For
the ADF4217L family, 8/9 or 16/17 prescalers are available. See
Table V and Table VI.
IF Power-Down
Tables IV, V, and VI show the power-down bits in the ADF4217L
family. See the Power-Down section for a functional description.
RF SECTION
Programmable RF Reference (R) Counter
If control bits C2, C1 are 1, 0, the data is transferred from
the
input shift register to the 14-bit RF R counter. Table VII shows
the
input shift register data format for the RF R counter and the
possible divide ratios.
RF Phase Detector Polarity
P9 sets the RF phase detector polarity. When the RF VCO
characteristics are positive, this should be set to “1.” When they
are negative, it should be set to “0.” See Table VII.
RF Charge Pump Three-State
P10 puts the RF charge pump into three-state mode when programmed
to a “1.” It should be set to “0” for normal operation. See Table VII.
