2.5.2
The transceiver can provide a clock signal through the
CLKOUT pin (pin 19) to the microcontroller for accurate
timing, thereby eliminating the need for a second
The CLKOUT is a sub-multiple of the reference
frequency and is programmable.
The two main functions of the CLKOUT output are:
• To
• To
CLKOUT can be made available in any operation
mode, except Sleep mode, and is automatically
enabled at power-up.
2.5.3
The Integer-N Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) circuitry
determines the operating frequency of the device. The
PLL maintains accuracy by using the crystal-controlled
reference oscillator and provides maximum flexibility in
performance to the designers.
The high resolution of the PLL allows the use of
multiple channels in any of the bands. The on-chip PLL
is capable of performing manual and automatic
calibration to compensate for the changes in
temperature or operating voltage.

Measurement of the CLKOUT signal enables
simple software trimming of the initial crystal

Preliminary
2.5.3.1
The MRF89XA features a PLL lock detect indicator
(PLOCK). This is useful for optimizing power consump-
tion, by adjusting the synthesizer wake-up time. The
lock status can also be read on the LSTSPLL bit from
the FTPRIREG register (Register 2-15), and must be
cleared by writing a ‘1’ to this same register. The lock
status is available on the PLOCK pin (pin 23), by setting
the LENPLL bit in the FTPRIREG register.
2.5.4
The integrated Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)
requires two external tank circuit inductors. As the input
is differential, the two inductors should have the same
nominal value. The performance of these components
are essential for both the phase noise and the power
consumption of the PLL. It is recommended that a pair
of high Q inductors is selected. These should be
mounted orthogonally to other inductors in the circuit
(in particular the PA choke) to reduce spurious coupling
between the PA and VCO. For best performance, wire
wound high-Q inductors with tight tolerance should be
used as described in Section 4.0 “Application
Details”. In addition, such measures may reduce radi-
ated pulling effects and undesirable transient behavior,
thus minimizing spectral occupancy.
The output signal of the VCO is used as the input to the
local oscillator (LO) generator stage, as illustrated in
Figure 2-5.The VCO frequency is subdivided and used
in a series of up (down) conversions for transmission
(reception).
