Converter Section

Data Sheet

In normal application the RF input is interfaced through appropriate impedance matching and an AGC front end to

the device input. The RF input preamplifier of the device is designed for low noise figure, within the operating region

of 50 to 1400 MHz and for high intermodulation distortion intercept so offering good signal to noise plus composite

distortion spurious performance when loaded with a multi carrier system. The preamplifier also provides gain to the

mixer section and back isolation from the local oscillator section.

The lna/mixer current and hence signal handling and device power consumption are programmable through the I

bus as tabulated in Figure 7.

The typical RF input impedance and matching network for broadband upconversion are contained in Figures 8 and

9 respectively and for narrow band downconversion in Figures 10 and 11 respectively. The input referred two tone

intermodulation test condition spectrum at maximum power setting is shown in Figure 12. The typical input NF and

gain versus frequency and NF specification limits, over selectable power settings are contained in Figures 13, 14

and 15 respectively.

The output of the preamplifier is fed to the mixer section which is optimized for low radiation application. In this

stage the RF signal is mixed with the local oscillator frequency, which is generated by the on-board oscillator. The

oscillator block uses an external tuneable network and is optimized for low phase noise. The typical oscillator

application as an upconverter is shown in Figure 16 and the typical phase noise performance in Figure 17. The

typical oscillator application as a downconverter is shown in Figure 18, and the phase noise performance in Figure

19. This oscillator block interfaces direct with the internal PLL to allow for frequency synthesis of the local oscillator.

Finally the output of the mixer provides an open collector differential output drive. The device allows for selection of

an IF in the range 30-1400 MHz so covering standard HIIFs between 1 and 1.4 GHz and all conventional tuner

output IFs. When used as a broadband upconverter to a HIIF the output should be differentially loaded, for example

with a differential SAW filter, to maximize intermodulation performance. A nominal load in maximum power setting is

shown in Figure 4, which will typically be terminated with a differential 200 load. When used as a narrowband

downconverter the output should be differentially loaded with a discrete differential to single ended converter as in

Figure 5, shown tuned to 44 MHz IF. Alternatively loading can be direct into a differential input amplifier or SAWF, in

which case external loads to Vcc will be required. An example load for 44 MHz application with a gain of 16 dB is

contained in Figure 6. The NF and gain with recommended load versus power setting are contained in Figure 20.

The typical IF output impedance as upconverter and downconverter are contained in Figures 21 and 22

respectively.

In all applications care should be taken to achieve symmetric balance to the IF outputs to maximize intermodulation

performance.

The typical key performance data at 5V Vcc and 25 deg C ambient are shown in the section 'Quick Reference

Data'.

PLL Frequency Synthesizer

The PLL frequency synthesizer section contains all the elements necessary, with the exception of a reference

frequency source and loop filter to control the oscillator, so forming a complete PLL frequency synthesized source.

The device allows for operation with a high comparison frequency and is fabricated in high speed logic, which

enables the generation of a loop with good phase noise performance.

The LO signal from the oscillator drives an internal preamplifier, which provides gain and reverse isolation from the

divider signals. The output of the preamplifier interfaces direct with the 15-bit fully programmable divider. The

programmable divider is of MN+A architecture, where the dual modulus prescaler is 16/17, the A counter is 4-bits,

and the M counter is 11 bits.

The output of the programmable divider is fed to the phase comparator where it is compared in both phase and

frequency domain with the comparison frequency. This frequency is derived either from the on-board crystal

controlled oscillator or from an external reference source. In both cases the reference frequency is divided down to

the comparison frequency by the reference divider which is programmable into 1 of 29 ratios as detailed in figure

23. Typical applications for the crystal oscillator are contained in Figure 24 and Figure 25. Figure 25 is used when

driving a second SL2101 as a downconverter.

The output of the phase detector feeds a charge pump and loop amplifier, which when used with an external loop

filter and high voltage transistor, integrates the current pulses into the varactor line voltage, used for controlling the

oscillator.

The programmable divider output Fpd divided by two and the reference divider output Fcomp can be switched to

port P0 by programming the device into test mode. The test modes are described in Figure 26.

The crystal reference frequency can be switched to BUFREF output by bit RE as described in Figure 27. The

BUFREF output is not available on the MLP package.

Programming

The SL2101 is controlled by an I

C data bus and is compatible with both standard and fast mode formats.

Data and Clock are fed in on the SDA and SCL lines respectively as defined by I

C bus format. The device can

either accept data (write mode), or send data (read mode). The LSB of the address byte (R/W) sets the device into

write mode if it is low, and read mode if it is high. Tables 1 and 2 in Figure 28 illustrate the format of the data. The

device can be programmed to respond to several addresses, which enables the use of more than one device in an

C bus system. Figure 28, Table 3 shows how the address is selected by applying a voltage to the 'ADD' input.

When the device receives a valid address byte, it pulls the SDA line low during the acknowledge period, and during

following acknowledge periods after further data bytes are received. When the device is programmed into read

mode, the controller accepting the data must pull the SDA line low during all status byte acknowledge periods to

read another status byte. If the controller fails to pull the SDA line low during this period, the device generates an

internal STOP condition, which inhibits further reading.

Write Mode

With reference to Figure 28, Table 1, bytes 2 and 3 contain frequency information bits 2

-2

inclusive.

Byte 4 controls the synthesizer reference divider ratio, see Figure 23 and the charge pump setting, see Figure 29.

Byte 5 controls the test modes, see Figure 26, the buffered crystal reference output select RE, see Figure 27, the

power setting, see Figure 7 and the output port P0.

After reception and acknowledgement of a correct address (byte 1), the first bit of the following byte determines

whether the byte is interpreted as a byte 2 or 4, a logic '0' indicating byte 2, and a logic '1' indicating byte 4. Having

interpreted this byte as either byte 2 or 4 the following data byte will be interpreted as byte 3 or 5 respectively.

Having received two complete data bytes, additional data bytes can be entered, where byte interpretation follows

the same procedure, without re-addressing the device. This procedure continues until a STOP condition is

received. The STOP condition can be generated after any data byte, if however it occurs during a byte

transmission, the previous byte data is retained. To facilitate smooth fine tuning, the frequency data bytes are only

accepted by the device after all 15 bits of frequency data have been received, or after the generation of a STOP

condition.

Read Mode

When the device is in read mode, the status byte read from the device takes the form shown in Figure 28, Table 2.

Bit 1 (POR) is the power-on reset indicator, and this is set to a logic '1' if the Vcc supply to the device has dropped

below 3V (at 25° C), e.g., when the device is initially turned ON. The POR is reset to '0' when the read sequence is

terminated by a STOP command. When POR is set high this indicates that the programmed information may have

been corrupted and the device reset to the power up condition.

Bit 2 (FL) indicates whether the synthesizer is phase locked, a logic '1' is present if the device is locked, and a logic

'0' if the device is unlocked.
