Note 12: When the FoLD output is disabled, it is actively pulled to a low logic state.
Note 13: Lock detect output provided to indicate when the VCO frequency is in “lock.” When the loop is locked and a lock detect mode is selected, the pins output
is HIGH, with narrow pulses LOW. In the RF/IF lock detect mode a locked condition is indicated when RF and IF are both locked.
Note 14: The Fastlock mode utilizes the FoLD output pin to switch a second loop filter damping resistor to ground during fastlock operation. Activation of Fastlock
occurs whenever the RF loop’s lcpo magnitude bit #17 is selected HIGH (while the #19 and #20 mode bits are set for Fastlock).
Note 15: The IF Counter Reset mode resets IF PLL’s R and N counters and brings IF charge pump output to a TRI-STATE condition. The RF Counter Reset mode
resets RF PLL’s R and N counters and brings RF charge pump output to a TRI-STATE condition. The IF and RF Counter Reset mode resets all counters and brings
both charge pump outputs to a TRI-STATE condition. Upon removal of the Reset bits then N counter resumes counting in “close” alignment with the R counter. (The
maximum error is one prescaler cycle.)
POWERDOWN OPERATION
Synchronous and asynchronous powerdown modes are
both available by MICROWIRE selection. Synchronously
powerdown occurs if the respective loop’s R18 bit (Do
TRI-STATE) is LOW when its N20 bit (Pwdn) becomes HI.
Asynchronous powerdown occurs if the loop’s R18 bit is HI
when its N20 bit becomes HI.
In the synchronous powerdown mode, the powerdown func-
tion is gated by the charge pump to prevent unwanted fre-
quency jumps. Once the powerdown program bit N20 is
loaded, the part will go into powerdown mode when the
charge pump reaches a TRI-STATE condition.
In the asynchronous powerdown mode, the device powers
down immediately after the LE pin latches in a HI condition
on the powerdown bit N20.
Activation of either the IF or RF PLL powerdown conditions
in either synchronous or asynchronous modes forces the re-
spective loop’s R and N dividers to their load state condition
and debiasing of its respective f
IN input to a high impedance
state. The oscillator circuitry function does not become dis-
abled until both IF and RF powerdown bits are activated. The
MICROWIRE control register remains active and capable of
loading and latching data during all of the powerdown
modes.
The device returns to an actively powered up condition in ei-
ther synchronous or asynchronous modes immediately upon
LE latching LOW data into bit N20.
