3 Description
The LMX2491 device is a low-noise, 6.4-GHz
wideband delta-sigma fractional N PLL with ramp and
chirp generation. It consists of a phase frequency
detector, programmable charge pump, and high
frequency input for the external VCO. The LMX2491
supports a broad and flexible class of ramping
capabilities, including FSK, PSK, and configurable
piecewise linear FM modulation profiles of up to 8
segments. It supports fine PLL resolution and fast
ramp with up to a 200-MHz phase detector rate. The
LMX2491 allows any of its registers to be read back.
The LMX2491 can operate with a single 3.3-V supply.
Moreover, supporting up to 5.25-V charge pump can
eliminate the need of external amplifier, leading to a
simpler solution with improved phase noise
performance.
