M
The main divider is clocked by the RF signal from the
internal frequency doubler. The divider operates at
frequencies from 1880 to 1920 MHz. It consists of a
bipolar prescaler followed by a CMOS counter. Any main
divider ratio from 2176 to 2303 inclusive can be
programmed.
R
The reference divider is clocked by the signal at pin XTAL.
The circuit operates with levels from 50 to 500 mV (RMS)
at a frequency of 13.824 MHz, with a fixed divider ratio
of 16.
P
The phase comparator is driven by the output of the main
and reference dividers. It produces current pulses at the
charge-pump output (pin CP). The pulse duration is equal
to the difference in time of arrival of the edges from the two
dividers. If the main divider edge arrives first, pin CP sinks
current; if the reference divider edge arrives first, pin CP
sources current. The DC value of the charge-pump current
is nominally ten times the current drawn by the external
resistor connected to pin R
included to ensure that the gain of the phase detector
remains linear even for small phase errors.
The charge pump has a separate supply, V

Serial programming bus
A simple 3-line unidirectional serial bus is used to program
the circuit. These 3 lines are data (DATA), clock (CLK) and
enable (S_EN). The data sent to the device is loaded in
bursts framed by S_EN. Programming clock edges and
their appropriate data bits are ignored until S_EN goes
active LOW. The programmed information is read directly
by the main divider when S_EN returns HIGH. During
synthesizer operation, S_EN should be kept HIGH.
In normal operating mode, the last 16 bits serially clocked
into the device are retained within the register. Additional
leading bits are ignored, and no check is made on the
number of clock pulses. The data format is given in
Table 2. The first bit entered is b15, the last bit is b0.

Operating modes
The synthesizer is on when the input signal S_EN is HIGH,
and off when S_EN is LOW. When turned on, the dividers
and phase detector are synchronized to avoid a random
initial phase error. When turned off, the phase detector is
synchronized with the dividers to avoid interrupting a
charge-pump pulse.
The VCO is on when the input signal VCO_ON is HIGH.
The polarity of VCO_ON is chosen for compatibility with
output S_PWR at the ABC chip. When turned on, it needs
some time (typically 30 s) to reach its steady state.
The TX preamplifier is on when both R_OFF and VCO_ON
are HIGH. The polarity of R_OFF is chosen for
compatibility with output R_PWR at the ABC chip. When
turned on, it needs some time (typically 10 s) to reach its
steady state. In transmit mode, the timing of the R_OFF
LOW-to-HIGH transition can be chosen such that the TX
preamplifier is turned on while the synthesizer loop
remains closed thus avoiding frequency pulling of the
VCO. In the receive mode, depending on the exact timing
of R_OFF compared to VCO_ON, the TX preamplifier can
be switched on at the beginning of the previous slot, but is
switched off when R_OFF goes LOW; this occurs when
the synthesizer loop is closed. The LO output amplifier is
turned on when R_OFF is LOW and VCO_ON is HIGH.
The UAA2068AHL has a very low current consumption in
Power-down mode.
