This synthesizer is a key building block in designing high-performance narrowband and multi-band radio systems that require low power and fine step size. The ultra-fine step size of less than 100 Hz allows this synthesizer to be used in very narrowband wireless applications. With proper temperature sensing or through control channels, the synthesizer's fine step size can compensate for crystal oscillator or IF filter drift. As a result, crystal oscillators or crystals can replace temperature-compensated or ovenized crystal oscillators, reducing parts count and associated component cost. The PS2500's fine step size can also be used for doppler shift corrections. The PS2500 has a phase noise floor of -92 dBc/Hz up to 2.2 GHz operation. This is permitted by the on-chip low noise prescalers and low divide ratios provided by the IC's high fractionality. Reference crystals or oscillators up to 50 MHz can be used with the PS2500. The crystal frequency is divided down by independent programmable dividers (1 to 32) for the main and auxiliary synthesizers. The phase detectors can operate at a maximum speed of 25 MHz, permitting better phase noise due to the lower division value. With a high reference frequency, the loop bandwidths can also be increased. Larger loop bandwidths improve the settling times and reduce in-band phase noise. Typical switching times of less than 100 s can thus be achieved with a 10 MHz reference. The PS2500's lower in-band phase noise also permits the use of lower cost Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) in customer applications. The PS2500 has a Frequency Power SteeringTM circuit (patent pending), which assists the loop filter to steer the VCO when the frequency is too fast or too slow. In this configuration, acquisition times of up to five times faster than conventional phase/frequency detectors can be achieved. The unit operates with a 3-wire, high-speed serial interface. A combination of a large bandwidth, fine resolution, and the 3-wire, high-speed serial interface allows for a direct phase and frequency modulation of the VCO. This supports any constant envelope and continuous phase modulation which means any analog FM or digital FM. This capability can eliminate the need for I & Q DACs, quadrature upconverters, and IF filters from the transmitter portion of the radio system. Philsar Semiconductor Inc. 146 Colonnade Road S.

Frequency switching and acquisition times can be improved by opening up the bandwidth, and subsequently lower phase noise contribution can be achieved by narrowing down the loop filter bandwidth after phase lock. * Programmable power-down modes optimize power management. * Individually configurable main and auxiliary synthesizers as integer-N, allowing a reduction in power consumption. * Configurable resolution of the main modulator from 18 to 10 bits, allowing further reduction in power consumption.

It enables the PS2500 to operate in a system where one or multiple masters and slaves are present. To perform a loop-back test at start-up and to check the integrity of the board and processor, the serial data can be fed back to the master device (for example, MCU/MPU) through a programmable multiplexer. This facilitates hardware and software debugging. For more information, see "Serial Interface" on page 5. Registers There are ten 16-bit registers in the PS2500. For more information, see "Registers" on page 19 and "Register Descriptions" on page 19. Main and Auxiliary Modulators The PS2500 uses a proprietary (patent pending) configurable 10-bit or 18-bit modulator for the main synthesizer and 10-bit modulator for the auxiliary synthesizer to provide fractionality.

Nepean, Ontario, Canada K2E 7Y1 -3- Tel: 613-274-0922 Fax: 613-274-0915 www.philsar.com PMP-001-DS2 V1.2 PS2500 2.2 GHz Fractional-N Frequency Synthesizer Main and Auxiliary Fractional Units The PS2500 provides fractionality through the use of main and auxiliary modulators. The output from the main and auxiliary modulators are combined with the main and auxiliary divider ratios through their respective Fractional Units. VCO Prescalers The VCO prescalers provide low-noise signal conditioning of the VCO signals. They are used to translate from an off-chip single-ended or differential signal to an on-chip differential ECL/CML signal. The PS2500 has independent main and auxiliary VCO prescalers. Main and Auxiliary VCO Dividers The PS2500 provides programmable dividers that control the ECL/CML prescalers and supply the required signals to the charge pump phase detectors. Programmable divide ratios ranging from 38 to 537 are possible in fractional-N mode and from 32 to 543 in integer-N mode. Reference Frequency Oscillator The PS2500 has a self-contained low-noise crystal oscillator. This crystal oscillator is followed by the clock generation circuitry that generates the required clock for the programmable reference frequency dividers. Reference Frequency Dividers The crystal oscillator signal can be divided by a ratio of 1 to 32 to create the reference frequencies for the phase detectors. The PS2500 has both a Main and an Auxiliary frequency synthesizer and provides independently configurable dividers of the crystal oscillator frequency for both the main and auxiliary phase detectors. The divide ratios can be programmed through the Reference Frequency Dividers Register. Note: The divided crystal oscillator frequencies (which are the internal reference frequencies) Fref_main and Fref_aux are referred to as the reference frequencies throughout this document. Phase Detectors and Charge Pumps The PS2500 uses a separate charge pump phase detector (patent pending), for each synthesizer which provides a programmable gain, Kd, from 20 to 160 A/radian in steps of approximately 5 A/radian. Phase detector gains are programmable through the control register. Frequency Steering When programmed for Power SteeringTM (patent pending), the PS2500 has a frequency power steering circuit, which assists the loop filter to steer the VCO, through the LD/PS pin. In this configuration, the LD/PS pin can provide for more rapid acquisition (approximately five times faster than conventional phase/frequency detectors). When programmed for lock detection, internal frequency steering is implemented and provides frequency acquisition times comparable to conventional phase/frequency detector.

When locked, the LD/PS pin is tri-stated (high impedance). Power Down The PS2500 supports a number of power-down modes through its serial interface. For more information, see "General Synthesizer Registers" on page 22. Operation This section describes the operation of the PS2500. The serial interface is described first, followed by information on how to obtain values for the divide ratio registers. Serial Interface The serial interface of the PS2500 consists of three pins: Clock, Data and /CS. Data transfers are controlled by the Clock signal which synchronizes and samples the information on the two serial data lines (Data and /CS). The bits on the Data pin are shifted into a temporary register on the rising edge of Clock. The /CS (chip select) line allows individual selection of slave devices on the same bus. The following diagram functionally depicts how a serial transfer takes place. Figure 2: Serial Transfer Timing Diagram Clock X A3 A2 A1 A0 D11 D10 D9 D8 D7 D6 D5 D4 D3 D2 D1 D0 XXX Data /CS Last A serial transfer is initiated when a microcontroller or microprocessor forces the /CS line to a low state. This is immediately followed by an address/data stream being presented to the Data pin that coincides with the rising edges of the clock presented on the Clk line. Each rising edge of the Clk signal shifts in one bit of data on the Data line into the shift-register. At the same time, one bit of data is being shifted out for the Mux_out pin (if the serial bit stream is selected) at each falling edge of Clk. To load any of the synthesizer registers, 16 bits of address/data have to be presented to the Data line with the data LSB last while /CS is low. If /CS is low for more than 16 clock cycles, only the last address/data bits are used for loading the synthesizer registers. If the /CS line is brought to a high state before the thirteenth clock edge on Clk, the bit stream is assumed to be modulation data samples. In this case, it is assumed that no address bits are present and that all the bits in the stream should be loaded into the modulation data register Philsar Semiconductor Inc. 146 Colonnade Road S.

Therefore, the dividend is a signed binary value either 10 or 18 bits long. 1. Where the Round function rounds the number to the nearest integer. Philsar Semiconductor Inc. 146 Colonnade Road S.

Fractional-N Example Case 1: To achieve a desired frequency FVCO_main of 902.4530 MHz using crystal frequency of 40 MHz with operation of the synthesizer in 18-bit mode. Since the maximum internal reference frequency Fdiv_ref is 25 MHz, the crystal frequency is divided by 2 to obtain a Fdiv_ref of 20 MHz 1. Therefore, using: Nfractional = FVCO / Fdiv_ref = 902.4530 / 20 = 45.12265 The value to be programmed in the Main Divider Register is: Nreg = Round [Nfractional] - 32 = Round[45.12265] - 32 = 74 - 32 = 13 = 0 0000 1101(binary) With the modulator in 18-bit mode, the value to be programmed in the Main Dividend Registers is: dividend = Round (divider x (Nfractional - Nreg - 32)) = Round (262144 x (45.12265 - 13 - 32)) = Round (262144 x (0.12265)) = Round (32151.9616) = 32152 (decimal) = 00 0111 1101 1001 1000 (binary) Where 00 0111 1101 is loaded in the Main Dividend MSB Register and 1001 1000 is loaded in the Main Dividend LSB Register. Summarizing, * Main Divider Register = 0 0000 1101 * Main Dividend LSB Register = 1001 1000 * Main Dividend MSB Register = 00 0111 1101 The frequency step size for this case is 20 MHz divided by 2 18 giving 76.3 Hz. 1.

Since the maximum internal reference frequency Fdiv_ref is 25 MHz, the crystal frequency does not require the internal division to be greater than 1, giving us a Fdiv_ref of 19.2 MHz 1. Therefore, using: Nfractional = FVCO_main / Fdiv_ref = 917.7786 x 19.2 = 47.80139 The value to be programmed in the Main Divider Register is: Nreg = Round [N fractional] - 32 = Round [47.80139] - 32 = 48 - 32 = 16 = 0 0001 0000 (binary) With the modulator in 10-bit mode, the value to be programmed in the Main Dividend Registers is: dividend = Round (divider x (Nfractional - Nreg - 32)) = Round (1024 x (47.80139 - 16 - 32)) = Round (1024 x (-0.19861)) = Round (-203.38133) = -203 (decimal) = 11 0011 0101 (binary) Where 11 0011 0101 is loaded in the Main Dividend MSB Register. Summarizing, * Main Divider Register = 0 0001 0000 * Main Dividend MSB Register =11 0011 0101 * The resulting VCO frequency is 917.7938 MHz * Step size is 18.75 kHz 1. The frequency step size for this case is 19.2 MHz divided by 2 10 giving 18.75 kHz. Philsar Semiconductor Inc. 146 Colonnade Road S.

The value to be programmed in the Main or Auxiliary Divider Register is given by: Nreg = N integer - 32 When in integer mode, allowed values for Nreg are from 0 and 511 for both the main and auxiliary synthesizers. Note: As with all integer-N synthesizers, the minimum step size is related to the crystal frequency and reference frequency division ratio. Integer-N Example Case 1: To achieve a desired frequency FVCO_aux of 400 MHz using a crystal frequency of 16 MHz. Since the minimum divide ratio is 32, the reference frequency must be a maximum of 12.5 MHz. Choosing a reference frequency divide ratio of 2 provides us with a reference frequency Fdiv_ref of 8 MHz. Therefore, using: Ninteger = F VCO_aux / F div_ref = 400 / 8 = 50 The value to be programmed in the Auxiliary Divider Register is: Nreg = N integer - 32 = 50 - 32 = 18 = 0 0001 0010 (binary) Summarizing, * Auxiliary Divider Register = 0 0001 0010 Register Loading Order In applications where the main synthesizer is in 18-bit mode, the Main Dividend MSB Register holds the 10 MSBs of the dividend and the Main Dividend LSB Register holds the 8 LSBs of the dividend.

In applications where the main synthesizer is in 10-bit mode, the Main Dividend MSB Register holds the 10 bits of the dividend. The order in which the registers controlling the main synthesizer's divide ratio are to be loaded is: * Main Divider Register * Main Dividend MSB Register (at which point the new divide ratio takes effect). For the auxiliary synthesizer, the Auxiliary Dividend Register holds the 10 bits of the dividend. The order in which the registers controlling the auxiliary synthesizer's divide ratio is to be loaded is: * Auxiliary Divider Register * Auxiliary Dividend Register (at which point the new divide ratio takes effect). Note: When in integer mode, the new divide ratios take effect as soon as the Main or Auxiliary Divider Register is loaded. Direct Digital Modulation The PS2500's high fractionality and small step size permit the user to tune to practically any frequency in the VCO's operating range. This frequency tuning permits direct digital modulation by programming the different desired frequencies at precise instants. Typically, the channel frequency is selected through the main divider and dividend register and the instantaneous frequency offset from the carrier is entered through the modulation data register. Write access to the modulation data register can be performed three ways: Normal register write A normal 16-bit serial interface write to the modulation data register at address Hex9 where /CS is 16 Clock cycles wide and modulation data is presented on the Data pin. The content of the modulation data register is passed to the modulation unit at the next falling edge of the divided main VCO frequency (Fpd_main). Short /CS through Data pin (no address bits required) A shortened serial interface write where /CS is from 2 to 12 Clock cycles wide and modulation data (2 to 12 bits) is presented on the Data pin. The Data is the default pin for entering modulation data directly in modulation data register with shortened /CS strobes. This method of data entry eliminates the register address overhead on the serial interface. All serial interface bits are re-synchronized internally at the reference oscillator frequency. The content of the modulation data register is passed to the modulation unit at the next falling edge of the divided main VCO frequency (Fpd_main). Short /CS through Mod_in pin (no address bits required) Philsar Semiconductor Inc. 146 Colonnade Road S.

The Mod_in is the alternate pin for entering modulation data directly in modulation data register with shortened /CS strobes. This mode is selected through the modulation control register. This method of data entry also eliminates the register address overhead on the serial interface and permits a different device than the one controlling the channel selection to enter the modulation data (eg. a microcontroller for channel selection and a DSP for modulation data). All serial interface bits are re-synchronized internally at the reference oscillator frequency and the content of the modulation data register is passed to the modulation unit at the next falling edge of the divided main VCO frequency (Fpd_main). Modulation data samples in the modulation data register can be from 2 to 12 bits long, enabling the user to select how many distinct frequency steps will be used for the desired modulation scheme. The user can also control the frequency deviation through the Modulation Data Magnitude Offset in the modulation control register. This permits shifting of the modulation data to accomplish a 2m multiplication of frequency deviation1. 1. The programmable range of -0.5 to +0.5 of the main modulator can be exceeded up to the condition where the sum of the dividend and the modulation data obey -0.5625 (Nmod + dividend) +0.5625 before requiring changing Ninteger.
