Product Specification
PE9763
Product Description
Peregrine’s PE9763 is a high performance fractional-N PLL
capable of frequency synthesis up to 3.2 GHz. The device is
designed for superior phase noise performance while providing
an order of magnitude reduction in current consumption, when
compared with the existing commercial space PLLs.
The PE9763 features a 10/11 dual modulus prescaler,
counters, a delta sigma modulator, a phase comparator and a
charge pump as shown in Figure 1. Counter values are
programmable through either a serial interface or directly hard-
wired.
PE9763 is optimized for commercial space applications. Single
Event Latch up (SEL) is physically impossible and Single Event
Upset (SEU) is better than 10-9 errors per bit / day. Fabricated
in Peregrine’s patented UTSi® (Ultra Thin Silicon) CMOS
technology, the PE9763 offers excellent RF performance and
intrinsic radiation tolerance.

Prescaler input from the VCO. 3.2 GHz max frequency.
Prescaler complementary input. A bypass capacitor should be placed as close as possible to
this pin and be connected in series with a 50 W resistor directly to the ground plane.
Prescaler ground.
Prescaler ground.
Output driver/charge pump ground.
Logical “NAND” of PD_U and PD_D terminated through an on chip, 2 kW series resistor.
Connecting Cext to an external capacitor will low pass filter the input to the inverting amplifier
used for driving LD.
Lock detect and open drain logical inversion of CEXT. When the loop is in lock, LD is high
impedance, otherwise LD is a logic low (“0”).
Data out function, enabled in enhancement mode.

Charge pump select. “High” enables the charge pump and disables pins PD_U and PD_D by
forcing them “low”. A “low” Tri-states the CP and enables PD_U and PD_D.
MASH 1-1 select. “High” selects MASH 1-1 mode. “Low” selects the MASH 1-1-1 mode.
K register LSB toggle enable. “1” enables the toggling of LSB. This is equivalent to having
an additional bit for the LSB of K register. The frequency offset as a result of enabling this bit
is the phase detector comparison frequency / 2

When handling this UltraCMOS™ device, observe
the same precautions that you would use with
other ESD-sensitive devices. Although this device
contains circuitry to protect it from damage due to
ESD, precautions should be taken to avoid
exceeding the rating specified in Table 4.
