200 MHz Clock Generator PLL
ADF4001
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADF4001 clock generator can be used to implement clock
sources for PLLs that require very low noise, stable reference
signals. It consists of a low noise digital PFD (phase frequency
detector), a precision charge pump, a programmable reference
divider, and a programmable 13-bit N counter. In addition, the
14-bit reference counter (R counter) allows selectable REF
IN
frequencies at the PFD input. A complete PLL (phase-locked
loop) can be implemented if the synthesizer is used with an exter-
nal loop filter and VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) or
VCXO (voltage controlled crystal oscillator). The N minimum
value of 1 allows flexibility in clock generation.

NOTES
1
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-
nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2
This device is a high performance RF integrated circuit with an ESD rating of
<2 kΩ and it is ESD sensitive. Proper precautions should be taken for handling and
assembly.
3
GND = AGND = DGND = 0 V.
CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the ADF4001 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.

Charge Pump Output. When enabled, this provides ±I
CP
to the external loop filter which,
in turn, drives the external VCO or VCXO.
Charge Pump Ground. This is the ground return path for the charge pump.
Analog Ground. This is the ground return path of the prescaler.
Complementary Input to the N counter. This point must be decoupled to the ground
plane with a small bypass capacitor, typically 100 pF. See Figure 3.
Input to the N counter. This small signal input is ac-coupled to the external VCO or VCXO.
Analog Power Supply. This ranges from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Decoupling capacitors to the
analog ground plane should be placed as close as possible to this pin. AV
DD
must have the
same value as DV
DD
.
Reference Input. This is a CMOS input with a nominal threshold of V
DD
/2 and a dc
equivalent input resistance of 100 kΩ. See Figure 2. This input can be driven from a TTL
or CMOS crystal oscillator or can be ac-coupled.
Digital Ground.
Chip Enable. A logic low on this pin powers down the device and puts the charge pump
output into three-state mode. Taking the pin high will power up the device, depending on
the status of the power-down bit F2.
Serial Clock Input. This serial clock is used to clock in the serial data to the registers. The
data is latched into the 24-bit shift register on the CLK rising edge. This input is a high
impedance CMOS input.
Serial Data Input. The serial data is loaded MSB first with the two LSBs being the control
bits. This input is a high impedance CMOS input.
Load Enable, CMOS Input. When LE goes high, the data stored in the shift registers is
loaded into one of the four latches, the latch being selected by using the control bits.
This multiplexer output allows either the lock detect, the scaled RF, or the scaled reference
frequency to be accessed externally.
Digital Power Supply. This ranges from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. Decoupling capacitors to the
digital ground plane should be placed as close as possible to this pin. DV
DD
must be the
same value as AV
DD
.
Charge Pump Power Supply. This should be greater than or equal to V
DD
. In systems
where V
DD
is 3 V, it can be set to 5 V and used to drive a VCO or VCXO with a tuning
range of up to 5 V.
Exposed Pad. The exposed pad should be connected to AGND.
