To ensure correct operation of the regulator circuit, the decoupling capacitor connection shown in Figure 4 is
required. These decoupling components are recommended for any design.
The frequency synthesizer of the SX1211 is a fully integrated integer-N type PLL. The PLL circuit requires only five
external components for the PLL loop filter and the VCO tank circuit.
The SX1211 embeds a crystal oscillator, which provides the reference frequency for the PLL. The recommended
crystal specification is given in section 7.1.
The reference frequency, or a sub-multiple of it, can be provided on CLKOUT (pin 19) by activating the bit
OSCParam_Clkout_on. The division ratio is programmed through bits OSCParam_Clkout_freq. The two
applications of the CLKOUT output are:
Note: To minimize the current consumption of the SX1211, ensure that the CLKOUT signal is disabled when
unused.

3.2. Frequency Synthesis Description
To provide a clock output for a companion uC, thus saving the cost of an additional oscillator. CLKOUT can be
made available in any operation mode, except Sleep mode, and is automatically enabled at power-up.
To provide an oscillator reference output. Measurement of the CLKOUT signal enables simple software
trimming of the initial crystal tolerance.
