Operating Principle of PLL
The 19.2 MHz frequency generated by the reference crystal oscillator goes to the frequency divider of
PLL for frequency division. Then, the frequency divider generates the reference frequency (step
frequency f1). Meanwhile, the frequency generated by VCO goes to the frequency divider of PLL for
frequency division. Then, the frequency divider generates the frequency f2. After that, frequencies f1 and
f2 are compared in the phase detector (PD) to generate continuous pulse current. The current goes to
the loop filter for RC integration, and is then converted to control voltage (CV). Then the CV is sent to the
varactor of VCO to control and adjust the output frequency of VCO directly until the CV becomes
constant. At this time, PLL is locked. The stable frequency output by VCO goes to the TX/RX path after
passing through two buffer amplifiers.
Operating Principle of Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)
VCO employs Colpitts oscillator circuit. There are two types of VCO: RX VCO and TX VCO. RX VCO
provides LO signal while TX VCO provides carrier for TX signal. When the VCO is operating, it obtains
different output frequencies by changing the varactor's CV and then uses the control signals
VCC_VCO_L and VCC_VCO_H to switch the operating status between TX and RX. VCO_L is used for
receiving while VCO_H is used for transmitting.
Two-point Modulation
In TX mode, the two-point modulation technology is employed, to obtain higher modulation accuracy and
lower 4FSK bit error rate. MOD_VCO and MOD_REF send the modulation signal to the modulation end
of VCO and the reference crystal oscillator of PLL respectively to modulate TX VCO and the reference
crystal oscillator.
