8 GHz 16-BIT FRACTIONAL-N PLL
where
Nint
is the integer division ratio, an integer number between 36 and 65,533
(dsm_intg (Reg0Fh Table 26))
Nfrac
R
is the fractional part, a number from 1 to 224 (dsm_frac Reg10h Table 27)
is the reference path division ratio, (rfp_div_ratio Reg03h<13:0> Table 14)
fxtal
is the frequency of the crystal oscillator input (XSIN or XREF Figure 4)
As an Example:
fxtal

Nfrac

(EQ 14)
In this example the output frequency of 2,300,000,002.98 Hz is achieved by programming the 16-bit binary value of
46d = 2Eh = 0000 0000 0010 1110 into dsm_intg.
Similarly the 24-bit binary value of the fractional word is written into dsm_frac,
1d = 000 001h = 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0001
Example 2: Set the output to 4.600 025 GHz using a 100 MHz reference, R=2.
Find the nearest integer value, Nint, Nint = 92, fint = 4.600 000 GHz
This leaves the fractional part to be ffrac =25 kHz
(EQ 15)
Since Nfrac must be an integer number, the actual fractional frequency will be 25,001.17 Hz, an error of 1.17 Hz.
Here we program the 16-bit Nint = 92d = 5Ch = 0000 0000 0101 1100 and
the 24-bit Nfrac = 8389d = 20C5h = 0000 0010 0000 1100 0101
In addition to the above frequency programming words, the fractional mode must be enabled using the frac register.
Other DSM configuration registers should be set to the recommended values. Register setup files are available on
request.
Integer Frequency
The synthesizer is capable of operating in integer mode. In integer mode the digital Δ∑ modulator is normally shut
off and the division ratio of the VCO divider is set at a fixed value. To run in integer mode set dsm_integer_mode
(Reg12h<3> Table 29) and clear dsm_rstb (Reg01h<13> Table 12). Then program the integer portion of the frequency,
NINT, as explained by (EQ 13), ignoring the fractional part.
