GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADF411x family of frequency synthesizers can be used to
implement local oscillators (LO) in the upconversion and
downconversion sections of wireless receivers and transmitters.
They consist of a low noise digital phase frequency detector
(PFD), a precision charge pump, a programmable reference
divider, programmable A and B counters, and a dual-modulus
prescaler (P/P + 1). The A (5-bit) and B (13-bit) counters, in
conjunction with the dual-modulus prescaler (P/P + 1),
implement an N divider (N = BP + A). In addition, the 14-bit
reference counter (R counter) allows selectable REF
IN
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 voltage controlled oscillator (VCO).
All of the on-chip registers are controlled via a simple 3-wire
interface. The devices operate with a power supply ranging
from 2.7 V to 5.5 V and can be powered down when not in use.
