HMC4069LP4E v02.0316 FREQUENCY DIVIDERS AND DETECTORS - SMT 2.9 GHz INTEGER-N SYNTHESIZER (N = 2 - 32) 1 Typical Applications Features The HMC4069LPE is ideal for: * Point-to-Point Radios Ultra Low SSB Phase Noise Floor: -151dBc/Hz @ 10kHz offset @ 100MHz * Satellite Communication Systems Integrated Output Resistors * Military Applications Improved Input Sensitivity * Sonet Clock Generation Lock Detect and Invert Functionality 24-Pin 4 x 4mm SMT Package General Description The HMC4069LP4E is an Integer-N synthesizer which incorporates a 10 to 1300MHz digital phase-frequency detector with a 10 to 2900MHz 5-bit frequency counter. It is intended for use in low phase noise synthesizer applications. The combination of high frequency of operation along with its ultra low phase noise floor make possible synthesizers with wide loop bandwidth and low N resulting in fast switching and very low phase noise. When used in conjunction with a differential loop amplifier, the HMC4069LP4E generates output voltages that can be used to phase lock a VCO to a reference oscillator. The device is packaged in a 24-pin, 4 x 4mm leadless QFN surface mount package with an exposed ground paddle for improved RF and thermal performance.

Phase Noise data taken utilizing 2-unit cancellation method with VCO 2400MHz and healthy power level. Only one PFD output will be active with a forced frequency difference, depending upon which input frequency is higher. Without oscilloscope bandwidth limiting, there will be narrow pulses on NU, ND, & LD, at the input frequencies. These pulses may create spectral content, which is normally surpressed with the loop filter and lock detect filter.

This information is then used to pulse the ND and NU outputs depending upon which input signal is greater in frequency. Under normal operation the ND pin will be active when VCO frequency is greater than the REF frequency; NU would remain constant. Conversly, when the VCO frequency is lower than the REF frequency, then NU would be active and ND would remain constant. Here, the term "active" means that the output will on average, vary between 3 - 5V, and the term "remain constant" means that the output will remain at approximately 5V. INVERT Functionality The INV pin effectively swaps the REF and VCO input signals, such that the NU and ND pin responses are swapped. This has the advantage of easily correcting a layout issue if the loop filter op-amp inputs were swapped. A logic "LOW" on this pin will configure the device for normal operation, and a logic "HIGH" cause the input signals to swap. The evaluation board has a 10k resistor pull up resistor to 5V. A jumper must be installed connecting the INV pin to ground for normal operation. Lock Detect Functionality The LD pin is an open collector pulsed output transistor. It requires an external 1k pull up resistor to Vcc (5V), as well as a simple RC filter. Since the pin will produce very narrow pulses at each zero crossing of the REF and VCO input signals, filtering is necessary to create an average voltage which can be used to drive an LED or system input logic. When the device is "LOCKED", that transistor will effectively be "OFF", and the filtered output voltage will be "HIGH". Below is an example of an RC filter for the lock detect pin. The value of resistor "R" should be greater than 100 to limit any surge current from flowing when the output transistor is "ON". The value of capacitor "C" should be selected such that the filter cutoff is much less than the REF frequency, but not excessively large (slow) that it will inhibit detection of lock status.
