3 Description
The LMX2486 device is a low-power, high
performance delta-sigma fractional-N PLL with an
auxiliary integer-N PLL. The device is fabricated
using TI’s advanced process.
With delta-sigma architecture, fractional spurs at
lower offset frequencies are pushed to higher
frequencies outside the loop bandwidth. The ability to
push close in spur and phase noise energy to higher
frequencies is a direct function of the modulator
order. Unlike analog compensation, the digital
feedback technique used in the LMX2486 is highly
resistant to changes in temperature and variations in
wafer processing. The LMX2486 delta-sigma
modulator is programmable up to fourth order, which
allows the designer to select the optimum modulator
order to fit the phase noise, spur, and lock time
requirements of the system.
Serial data for programming the LMX2486 is
transferred through a three-line, high-speed (20-MHz)
MICROWIRE interface. The LMX2486 offers fine
frequency resolution, low spurs, fast programming
speed, and a single-word write to change the
frequency. This makes it ideal for direct digital
modulation applications, where the N-counter is
directly modulated with information. The LMX2486 is
available in a 24-lead 4.0 × 4.0 × 0.8 mm WQFN
package.
