1 The maximum usable PFD at a particular RF frequency is limited by the minimum N divide value.
2 VCO gain measured at a VCO tuning voltage of 1 V. The VCO gain varies across the tuning range of the VCO. The software package ADIsimPLL™ can be used to model this
variation.
3 This value can be used to calculate the in-band phase noise for any operating frequency. Use the following equation to calculate the in-band phase noise performance
as seen at the PA output: −203 + 10 log(fPFD) + 20 logN.
4 Guaranteed by design. Sample tested to ensure compliance.
5 A TCXO, VCXO, or OCXO can be used as an external oscillator.
6 Crystal start-up time is the time from chip enable (CE) being asserted to correct clock frequency on the CLKOUT pin.
7 Refer to the Reference Input section for details on using an external oscillator.
