SynthesizerThe Aero I transceiver integrates two complete PLLsincluding VCOs, varactors, res-
onators, loop filters, reference and VCO dividers, and phase detectors. The RFPLL uses two multi-
plexed VCOs. The RF1 VCO is used for receive mode, and the RF2 VCO is used for transmit
mode. The IF PLL is used only during transmit mode. All VCO tuning inductors are also integrated.
The IF and RF output frequencies are set by programming the N-Divider registers, NRF1,
NRF2and NIF. Programming the N-Divider register for either RF1 or RF2 automatically selects the-
proper VCO. The output frequency of each PLL is as follows:
The DIV2 bit in register 31h controls a programmable divider at the XIN pin to allow either a 13 or
26 MHz reference frequency. For receive mode, the RF1 PLL phase detector update rate (f•ı)
should be programmed f•ı= 100 kHz for DCS 1800 or PCS 1900 bands, and f•ı= 200 kHz for GSM
850 and E-GSM 900 bands. For transmit mode, the RF2 and IF PLL phase detector update rates
are always f•ı=200 kHz.
