GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The UMA1022M BICMOS device integrates prescalers,
programmable dividers, a crystal oscillator/buffer and
phase comparators to implement two phase-locked loops.
The device is designed to operate from 3 NiCd or a single
LiIon cell in pocket phones, or from an external 3 V supply.
The synthesizers operate at RF input frequencies up to
2.1 GHz and 550 MHz. All divider ratios are supplied via a
3-wire serial programming bus. The reference divider uses
a common, fully programmable part and a separate
subdivider section. In this way the comparison frequencies
are related to each other allowing optimum isolation
between charge pump pulses.
Separate power and ground pins are provided to the
analog (charge pump, prescaler) and digital (CMOS)
circuits. An independent supply for the crystal oscillator
section allows maximum frequency stability. The ground
leads should be externally short-circuited to prevent large
currents flowing across the die and thus causing damage.
V
DD
and V
DDX
must be at the same potential. V
CCA
and
V
CCB
must be equal to each other and equal to or greater
than V
DD
(e.g. V
DD
= 3 V and V
CCA
= 5.5 V for wider VCO
control voltage range).
The charge pump currents (phase detector gain) are fixed
by internal resistances and controlled by the serial
interface. Only passive loop filters are necessary;
the charge pumps function within a wide voltage
compliance range to improve the overall system
performance.
Suitable pin layout is chosen to minimize coupling and
interference between signals entering or leaving the chip.
