OUT_MODE<1,0>: TRF3761 has an optional divide by 2 or 4 output, which is selectable by programming bits
<OUT_MODE_1, OUT_MODE_0> of register 1 (see
Table 1).
CP_TEST: By setting bit DB30 to 1 it is possible to test the PFD up or down pulses. Internal TI use only.
TRIS_CP: If bit DB29 is set to 1, the charge pump output goes in tri-state. For normal operation, DB29 must be
set to 0.
ABPW: Bits <DB27, DB26> are used to program the width of the anti-backlash pulses of the PFD. The user
selects one of the following values: 0.9ns, 1.5ns, 2.7ns and 3.8ns. Backlash can occur when Fpfd becomes
phase aligned with Fout of the VCO. This will cause a high impedance state on the phase detector and allow the
output frequency to drift until the phase difference is enough to cause the phase detector to start sending signals
to the charge pump to correct the difference. This slight variation will show up as a sub harmonic of the pfd
signal in the passband of the loop filter which would result in a significant spur in the output of the VCO. It is
recommended that the anti-backlash pulse be set to the 1.5ns which gives the best spur reduction for the
TRF3761.
PFD_POL: Bit DB28 of register 1 sets the polarity of the PFD. A Low (0) selects a negative polarity, and a High
(1) selects a positive polarity. By choosing the correct polarity, the TRF3761 will works with an external VCO
having both positive and negative gain (Kv). For example if an external VCO has a Kv = –23MHz/V then the PFD
polarity would need to be negative, so DB28 would be set to a Low (0). When using the internal VCO with a Kv
of 23MHz/V, the PDF_POL should be set to 1.
RDiv: A 14-bit word programs the RDiv for the reference signal, DB25 is the MSB and DB12 is the LSB. RDiv
value is determined by dividing the reference frequency by the channel step size. For example if the reference
frequency is 10MHz and the channel step size is 200KHz then RDiv would be 50. This sets up the Fpfd for the
phase detector, in other words the reference frequency will be divided down by a factor of RDiv which in this
example is 50.
ICP: Bits <DB7, DB5> set the charge pump current.
which reduces to:
where N = decimal value of [Reg1 DB<7:5>]. The range is set by N and Rbias2. It is recommended that Icp be
set to 7mA or <DB7, DB5>=101.
OUTBUF_EN_SEL: Output buffer on/off state is controlled through serial interface or an external pin. If bit DB10
is a 0 (default state) the output buffers state is elected through bit DB11. If DB10 is a 1, the buffers on/off are
directly controlled by the OUTBU_EN pin.
RESET: Setting bit DB4 to 1, all registers are reset to default values.
