GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADF4001 clock generator can be used to implement clock
sources for PLLs that require very low noise, stable reference
signals. It consists of a low noise digital PFD (phase frequency
detector), a precision charge pump, a programmable reference
divider, and a programmable 13-bit N counter. In addition, the
14-bit reference counter (R counter) allows selectable REF
IN
frequencies at the PFD input. A complete PLL (phase-locked
loop) can be implemented if the synthesizer is used with an external loop filter and VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) or
VCXO (voltage controlled crystal oscillator). The N minimum
value of 1 allows flexibility in clock generation.

TA = 25°C; AVDD = DVDD = 3 V; RFIN = 100 MHz.

The synthesizer phase noise floor is estimated by measuring the in-band phase noise at the output of the VCO and subtracting 20 logN (where N is the N divider value).
6
The phase noise is measured with the EVAL-ADF4001EB1 evaluation board and the HP8562E spectrum analyzer.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although
the ADF4001 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on
devices subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are
recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
Stresses above those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause perma-
nent damage to the device. This is a stress rating only; functional operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those listed in the operational
sections of this specification is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating
conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

This device is a high performance RF integrated circuit with an ESD rating of
<2 kΩ and it is ESD sensitive. Proper precautions should be taken for handling and
assembly.
