11.4.3.3 FM Calibration Routine
Upon enabling frequency modulation, a new calibration routine is performed. This routine tunes a
reference current into the modulation D/A so that the modulation depth (F
max
and F
min
) remains within
specification.
Entering the FM calibration mode requires the user to program SYNCR[EXP]. The EXP is the expected
value of the difference between the reference and feedback counters used in the calibration of the FM
equation:
For example, if 80 MHz is the desired final frequency and 8 MHz crystal is used, the final values of
MFD=6 and RFD=0 will produce the desired 80 MHz. For a desired frequency modulation with a 1%
depth, then EXP is calculated using P = 1, MFD = 6 and M = 480. Refer to Table 11-11 for a complete list
of values to be used for the variable (M) based on MFD setting. To obtain a percent modulation (P) of 1%,
the EXP field would have to be set at:
Rounding this value to the closest integer yields the value of 48 that should be entered into the EXP field
for this example.
