ZHCSEN4E September 2015 – April 2018 LMK03318
PRODUCTION DATA.
The primary and secondary references each have a frequency doubler that can be enabled by programming R57.4 = 1 for the primary reference and R72.4 = 1 for the secondary reference. Enabling the doubler allows a higher comparison frequency for the PLL and results in a 3-dB reduction in the in-band phase noise of the LMK03318 device’s outputs. However, enabling the doubler poses the requirement of less than 0.5% duty cycle distortion of its reference input to minimize high spurious signals in the LMK03318’s outputs. If the reference input duty cycle is requirement is not met, the higher order loop filter components (R3 and C3) of the PLL can be used to suppress the reference input spurs.
