Functional Description
NOTE: The functional description that follows describes operation
using a 25MHz crystal. Valid PLL loop divider values for different
crystal or input frequencies are defined in the Input Frequency
Characteristics, Table 5, NOTE 1.
The ICS8402I features a fully integrated PLL and therefore
requires no external components for setting the loop bandwidth. A
fundamental crystal is used as the input to the on-chip oscillator.
The output of the oscillator is fed into the phase detector. A 25MHz
crystal provides a 25MHz phase detector reference frequency. The
VCO of the PLL operates over a range of 250MHz to 700MHz. The
output of the M divider is also applied to the phase detector.
The phase detector and the M divider force the VCO output
frequency to be M times the reference frequency by adjusting the
VCO control voltage. Note that for some values of M (either too
high or too low), the PLL will not achieve lock. The output of the
VCO is scaled by a divider prior to being sent to each of the
LVCMOS output buffers. The divider provides a 50% output duty
cycle.
The programmable features of the ICS8402I support two input
modes to program the M divider and N output divider. The two input
operational modes are parallel and serial. Figure 1 shows the
timing diagram for each mode. In parallel mode, the nP_LOAD
input is initially LOW. The data on inputs M0 through M8 and N0
and N1 is passed directly to the M divider and N output divider. On
the LOW-to-HIGH transition of the nP_LOAD input, the data is
latched and the M divider remains loaded until the next LOW
transition on nP_LOAD or until a serial event occurs. As a result,
the M and N bits can be hardwired to set the M divider and N output
divider to a specific default state that will automatically occur
during power-up. The TEST output is LOW when operating in the
parallel input mode. The relationship between the VCO frequency,
the crystal frequency and the M divider is defined as follows:
fVCO = fXTAL x M
The M value and the required values of M0 through M8 are shown
in Table 3B, Programmable VCO Frequency Function Table. Valid
M values for which the PLL will achieve lock for a 25MHz reference
are defined as 10
≤ M ≤ 28. The frequency out is defined as follows:
fout = fVCO = fXTAL x M
NN
Serial operation occurs when nP_LOAD is HIGH and S_LOAD is
LOW. The shift register is loaded by sampling the S_DATA bits with
the rising edge of S_CLOCK. The contents of the shift register are
loaded into the M divider and N output divider when S_LOAD
transitions from LOW-to-HIGH. The M divide and N output divide
values are latched on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of S_LOAD. If
S_LOAD is held HIGH, data at the S_DATA input is passed directly
to the M divider and N output divider on each rising edge of
S_CLOCK. The serial mode can be used to program the M and N
bits and test bits T1 and T0. The internal registers T0 and T1
determine the state of the TEST output as follows:
