FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The ZIF600 synthesiser is used to select the channel in
4FSK paging receivers and uses on-chip constant current
charge pumps to drive an external passive loop filter. Common
low cost reference crystals are used, at frequencies of 12.8 or
14.4MHz, and are divided to give the required 12.5, 20 or
25kHz channel spacings. The reference crystal oscillator uses
external trimming to meet system requirements and is controlled
by a DAC set by the digital demodulator.
The digital demodulator takes the limited I and Q signals
from the radio receiver and converts the 4-level FSK into 2 bit
data output on pins DATA0 and DATA1. An AFC output from
this demodulator is also included.
Functions are controlled by a serial bus with a simple
programming format and with four control pins to allow optimum
power up sequences which help minimise the system current
consumption.

REFERENCE DIVIDERS
The reference frequency generated by the oscillator on
pins REFOSC and REFOSCB is divided to give the comparison
frequency clock. See Fig. 3.
Ratio selection is five control bits RD1 (where LOW gives
÷ 8 mode), RD2 (where LOW gives ÷ 4 mode) and RD3 (where
LOW gives ÷ 2 mode) which can be set to give the 8 options
needed to get 10kHz, 12.5kHz, 20kHz or 25kHz from either a
12.8 or 14.4MHz crystal, as in Table 2. The additional control
bits RD4 and RD5 allow the option of further division to allow
for an off chip frequency multiplier. If both RD4 and RD5 are set
low then this division stage is bypassed. Other settings for RD4
and RD5 offer division by 2, 3 or 4. Table 3 shows the additional
division options available from RD4 and RD5.
Power down options are available for both the synthesiser
and demodulator, however the crystal oscillator and the
reference divider must be kept running to give a timing signal
to the demodulator whilst the demodulator is on.
