Loop Filters
The SM532 requires an external loop filter to provide the proper operation and modulation profile for a given input
frequency. The loop filter is connected to pin 5 (LF) of the SM532 and is a typical 2 pole low pass filter. Since the
SM532 operates over such a wide range of frequencies, the loop filter will change depending on the frequency of
operation. The following loop filter values are recommended for best performance and modulation profile at 3.0
volts and 5.0 volts VDD. Operating voltage is measured at the VDD pin of the SM532.
Notice that the selection of Loop Filter values only depends on the input frequency and VDD voltage, and

The component values listed in Table 8 are recommended values using commonly manufactured components.
Note that there are actually 3 different sets of loop filter values. Due to the VCO characteristics, the table is
divided in to 3 volt operation and 5 volt operation. Referring to the table above, it is apparent that one set of loop
filter values is all that is needed in the 3 volt operation. In the 5 volt operation, each input operating range is
divided into 3 sections which require a different loop filter for optimal performance. The best loop filter for any
application is the one that, provides the greatest EMI reduction, maintains system integrity, has a modulation
profile shown on page 7 and uses commonly available components.
