Lock Detect
Lock detection circuitry provides a CMOS logic level indication
when the PLL is frequency locked (high when locked).
Reference Input Divider
The R-counter (reference input clock divider) consists of three
divide-by-two blocks and one multiplexer controlled by the
RDIV[1:0] parameter in Legacy Word 2. The R-counter is used to
select a divide-by-one to a divide-by-eight function.
Synthesizer Output Switch
An on-chip switch is integrated into the SKY73100 RF output after
the balun and is controlled by the SW_EN signal (pin 4) as
indicated below:
The switch provides >50 dB isolation at the synthesizer RF
output. This allows the SKY73100 to be used for GSM
applications.
Synthesizer Programming
To program the synthesizer to the correct frequency, values for
the N-counter (both M and A portions), fractional divisor (FN), and
fractional modulus extender (ME) are needed. These values are
used to determine the total divider ratio, D
Equation 1:
Where: N
Because of the way the ∆Σ modulator is implemented in the
SKY73103, the number 3.5 must be added to the division number
to obtain the final division ratio.

The 6-bit M-counter and the 4-bit A-counter portions of the N-
counter are calculated according to the following relationships:

Then: N = M
Where: N is the number to be programmed into the N-counter.
The synthesizer has a selectable prescaler of 8/9 or 16/17. If the
16/17 prescaler is used:
In this case, N is the same as N

If the 8/9 prescaler is used:

The fractional divisor code (FN) sets the fractional-N modulo up to
256 modulo according to the following equation:
The value of FN is equal to the binary representation of 256 (or 2

The fractional modulo can be extended up to 2

The value of ME is equal to the binary representation of the
integer part of 2
Example 1:
A desired synthesizer frequency of 2640.45 MHz is required using
a crystal frequency of 16 MHz and a 16/17 prescaler. Since the
maximum internal reference frequency is 25 MHz, the crystal
frequency does not need to be divided. However, a reference
divider ratio of 2 is used for this example.
