260MHz, Crystal-to-LVCMOS/LVTTL
Frequency Synthesizer
General Description
The 84021 is a general purpose, Crystal-to-LVCMOS/LVTTL High
Frequency Synthesizer. The 84021 has a selectable TEST_CLK or
crystal input. The VCO operates at a frequency range of 620MHz to
780MHz. The VCO frequency is programmed in steps equal to the
value of the input reference or crystal frequency. The VCO and
output frequency can be programmed using the serial or parallel
interface to the configuration logic.

260MHz, CRYSTAL-TO-LVCMOS/LVTTL FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER
Functional Description
NOTE: The functional description that follows describes operation
using a 25MHz crystal. Valid PLL loop divider values for different
crystal or input frequencies are defined in the Input Frequency
Characteristics, Table 5, NOTE 1.
The 84021 features a fully integrated PLL and therefore requires no
external components for setting the loop bandwidth. A fundamental
crystal is used as the input to the on-chip oscillator. The output of the
oscillator is fed into the phase detector. A 25MHz crystal provides a
25MHz phase detector reference frequency. The VCO of the PLL
operates over a range of 620MHz to 780MHz. The output of the M
divider is also applied to the phase detector.
The phase detector and the M divider force the VCO output
frequency to be M times the reference frequency by adjusting the
VCO control voltage. Note that for some values of M (either too high
or too low), the PLL will not achieve lock. The output of the VCO is
scaled by a divider prior to being sent to each of the LVCMOS output
buffers. The divider provides a 50% output duty cycle.
The programmable features of the 84021 support two input modes to
program the M divider and N output divider. The two input operational
modes are parallel and serial.
Figure 1
shows the timing diagram for
each mode. In parallel mode, the nP_LOAD input is initially LOW.
The data on inputs M0 through M8 and N0 and N1 is passed directly
to the M divider and N output divider. On the LOW-to-HIGH transition
of the nP_LOAD input, the data is latched and the M divider remains
loaded until the next LOW transition on nP_LOAD or until a serial
event occurs. As a result, the M and N bits can be hardwired to set
the M divider and N output divider to a specific default state that will
automatically occur during power-up. The TEST output is LOW when
operating in the parallel input mode. The relationship between the
VCO frequency, the crystal frequency and the M divider is defined as
follows: fVCO = fxtal x M
The M value and the required values of M0 through M8 are shown in
Table 3B, Programmable VCO Frequency Function Table. Valid M
values for which the PLL will achieve lock for a 25MHz reference are
defined as 25
M
31.
The frequency out is defined as follows:
FOUT = fVCO = fxtal x M
N
N
Serial operation occurs when nP_LOAD is HIGH and S_LOAD is
LOW. The shift register is loaded by sampling the S_DATA bits with
the rising edge of S_CLOCK. The contents of the shift register are
loaded into the M divider and N output divider when S_LOAD
transitions from LOW-to-HIGH. The M divide and N output divide
values are latched on the HIGH-to-LOW transition of S_LOAD. If
S_LOAD is held HIGH, data at the S_DATA input is passed directly to
the M divider and N output divider on each rising edge of S_CLOCK.
The serial mode can be used to program the M and N bits and test
bits T1 and T0. The internal registers T0 and T1 determine the state
of the TEST output as follows:
