Main Synthesizer Power Down
= 1-bit value for powering down the main synthesizer. When this bit is 0,
the main synthesizer is powered up. When this bit is 1, the main synthesizer is in power down mode.
Main Synthesizer Mode
= 1-bit value for powering down the main synthesizer’s
Σ
modulator and
fractional unit to operate as a integer-N synthesizer. When this bit is 0, the main synthesizer is in
fractional-N mode. When this bit is 1, the main synthesizer is in integer-N mode.
Main Synthesizer
Σ
Fractionality
= 1-bit value to configure the size of the main
Σ
modulator. This
has a direct effect on power consumption and on the level of fractionality and step size. When this bit is
0, the main
Σ
modulator is 18-bit with fractionality of 2
18
and step size of F
ref_main
/262144. When this
bit is 1, the main
Σ
modulator is 10-bit with fractionality of 2
10
and step size of F
ref_main
/1024.
Auxiliary Synthesizer Power Down
= 1-bit value for powering down the auxiliary synthesizer. When this
bit is 0, the auxiliary synthesizer is powered up. When this bit is 1, the auxiliary synthesizer is in
power-down mode.
Auxiliary Synthesizer Mode
= 1-bit value for powering down the auxiliary synthesizer’s
Σ
modulator
and fractional unit to operate as a integer-N synthesizer. When this bit is 0, the auxiliary synthesizer is in
fractional-N mode. When this bit is 1, the auxiliary synthesizer is in integer-N mode.
Note:
There are no special power up sequences required for the PS2500.
Multiplexer Output Selection
= 3-bit value for selecting which internal signal is output to the
Mux_out
pin. Internal signals available on this pin are:
—
Reference Oscillator: F
ref
Main or auxiliary divided reference (post reference frequency main or auxiliary dividers): F
ref_main
or F
ref_aux
Main or auxiliary phase detector frequency (post main and auxiliary frequency dividers): F
pd_main
or
F
pd_aux
Serial data out, for loop-back and test purposes
