Case 2: To achieve a desired F
vco_main
frequency of 917.7786 MHz using a crystal frequency of 19.2 MHz with operation
of the synthesizer in 10-bit mode. Since the maximum internal reference frequency (F
div_ref
) is 25 MHz, the crystal
frequency does not require the internal division to be greater than 1, which makes F
div_ref
= 19.2 MHz. Therefore:
N

vco_main
F

The value to be programmed in the Main Divider Register is:

] – 32
= Round[47.80087] 32
= 48 – 32
= 16 (decimal)
= 000010000 (binary)
With the modulator in 10-bit mode, the value to be programmed in the Main Dividend Registers is:
dividend = Round[divider × (N
fractional
N
reg
– 32)]
= Round[1024 × (47.80087 – 16 – 32)]
= Round[1024× (–0.1990312)]
= Round[–203.808]
= 204 (decimal)
= 1100110100 (binary)
where 11 0011 0100 is loaded in the MSB of the Main Dividend Register.
Summary:
·
Main Divider Register = 0 0001 0000
·
Main Dividend Register, MSB = 11 0011 0100
·
The resulting main VCO frequency is 917.775 MHz
·
Step size is 18.75 kHz
Note: The frequency step size for this case is 19.2 MHz divided by 2
10
, giving 18.75 kHz.

vco_aux
frequency of 400 MHz using a crystal frequency of 16 MHz. Since the minimum
divide ratio is 32, the reference frequency (F

Normal Register Write. A normal 16-bit serial interface write
occurs when the CS signal is 16 clock cycles wide. The
corresponding 16-bit modulation data is simultaneously
presented to the Data pin. The content of the Modulation Data
Register is passed to the modulation unit at the next falling edge
of the divided main VCO frequency (F
pd_main
).
Short CS Through Data Pin (No Address Bits Required). A
shortened serial interface write occurs when the CS signal is from
2 to 12 clock cycles wide. The corresponding modulation data (2
to 12 bits) is simultaneously presented to the Data pin. The Data
pin is the default pin used to enter modulation data directly into
the Modulation Data Register with shortened CS strobes.
This method of data entry eliminates the register address
overhead on the serial interface. All serial interface bits are re-
synchronized internally at the reference oscillator frequency. The
content of the Modulation Data Register is passed to the
modulation unit at the next falling edge of the divided main VCO
frequency (F
pd_main
).
Short CS Through Mod_in Pin (No Address Bits Required). A
shortened serial interface write occurs when the CS signal is from
2 to 12 clock cycles wide and modulation data (2 to 12 bits) is
presented on the Mod_in pin, an alternate pin used to enter
modulation data directly into the Modulation Data Register with
shortened CS strobes. This mode is selected through the
Modulation Control Register.
This method of data entry also eliminates the register address
overhead on the serial interface and allows a different device than
the one controlling the channel selection to enter the modulation
data (e.g., a microcontroller for channel selection and a digital
signal processor for modulation data).
All serial interface bits are internally re-synchronized at the
reference oscillator frequency and the content of the Modulation
Data Register is passed to the modulation unit at the next falling
edge of the divided main VCO frequency (F
pd_main
).
Modulation data samples in the Modulation Data Register can be
from 2 to 12 bits long, and enable the user to select how many
distinct frequency steps are to be used for the desired modulation
scheme.
The user can also control the frequency deviation through the
modulation data magnitude offset in the Modulation Control
Register. This allows shifting of the modulation data to
accomplish a 2
m
multiplication of frequency deviation.
NOTE: The programmable range of –0.5 to +0.5 of the main

modulator can be exceeded up to the condition where
the sum of the dividend and the modulation data conform
to the following relationship:
-0.5625 N

Note 1: All registers are write only.
Note 2: No address bits are required for modulation data. Any serial data between 2 and 12 bits long is considered modulation data.
When the sum of the dividend and modulation data lie outside this
range, the value of N

must be changed.

functionality, refer to the Skyworks Application Note, Direct Digital

Register Descriptions
Table 1 lists the 10 16-bit registers that are used to program the
SKY72301-22. All register writes are programmed address first,
followed directly with data. MSBs are entered first. On power-up,
all registers are reset to 0x000 except registers at address 0x0
and 0x3, which are set to 0x006.
Main Synthesizer Registers
The Main Divider Register contains the integer portion closest to
the desired fractional-N (or the integer-N) value minus 32 for the
main synthesizer. This register, in conjunction with the Main
Dividend MSB/LSB registers (which control the fraction offset
from –0.5 to +0.5), allows selection of a precise frequency. As
shown in Figure 6, the value to be loaded is:
Main Synthesizer Divider Index = Nine-bit value for the integer
portion of the main synthesizer dividers. Valid values for this
register are from 6 to 505 (fractional-N) or 0 to 511 (integer-N).
The Main Dividend MSB/LSB Registers control the fraction part of
the desired fractional-N value and allow an offset of –0.5 to + 0.5
to the main integer selected through the Main Divider Register. As
shown in Figures 7 and 8, values to be loaded are:
Main Synthesizer Dividend (MSBs) = Ten-bit value for the MSBs
of the 18-bit dividend for the main synthesizer.
Main Synthesizer Dividend (LSBs) = Eight-bit value for the LSBs
of the 18-bit dividend for the main synthesizer.
The Main Dividend MSB/LSB Register values are 2's complement
format.
NOTE
: When in 10-bit mode, the Main Dividend LSB Register is
not required.
Auxiliary Synthesizer Registers
The Auxiliary Divider Register contains the integer portion closest
to the desired fractional-N (or integer-N) value minus 32 for the
auxiliary synthesizer. This register, in conjunction with the
Auxiliary Dividend Register (which controls the fraction offset from
–0.5 to + 0.5) allows selection of a precise frequency. As shown
in Figure 9, the value to be loaded is:
Auxiliary Synthesizer Divider Index = Nine-bit value for the
integer portion of the auxiliary synthesizer dividers. Valid values
for this register are from 6 to 505 (fractional-N) or from 0 to 511
(integer-N).
The Auxiliary Dividend Register controls the fraction part of the
desired fractional-N value and allows an offset of –0.5 to + 0.5 to
the auxiliary integer selected through the Auxiliary Divider
Register. As shown in Figure 10, the value to be loaded is:
Auxiliary Synthesizer Dividend = Ten-bit value for the auxiliary
synthesizer dividend.
