The control data input uses a 3-line 24-bit serial
interface comprising the clock (CLK), data input
(DATA) and latch enable (LE). The data is input with
the MSB first. The last two bits (23rd + 24th) are
used as the latch select control bits. Data is written to
the shift register on the rising edge of the clock sig-
nal. Accordingly, the data should change state on the
falling edge of the clock signal. Data is transferred
from the shift register to the latch when the latch
enable (LE) signal goes HIGH. Accordingly, the
latch enable signal should be held LOW while data is
being written to the shift register.
The clock and data input signals are both ignored
when the latch enable signal goes HIGH. Also, the
CLK, DATA and LE inputs should be tied LOW
when not setting data.
Input Data Description
Latch select
The last two data bits determine the status of the shift register data latch.
FIN input frequency Divider (N-counter) Structure
The FIN input frequency divider generates a compar-
ator frequency signal (FV), which is input to the
phase comparator, by dividing the VCO signal input
on pin FIN.
The phase comparator is comprised of dual modulus
prescalers, a 5-bit swallow counter and a 12-bit main
counter.
