Description of Block Diagram
Sync Input
Sync signals in the range of 10 to 100kHz can be input. Input supports both positive and negative polarity.
PECL input can also be a single input.
When SYNC is positive polarity, the clock is regenerated in synchronization with the rising edge of the sync signal.
When SYNC is negative polarity, the clock is regenerated in synchronization with the falling edge of the sync signal.
VCO oscillation stops when there is no sync input.
Register: SYNC POL
SYNC input polarity
1
Positive
0
Negative
Phase Detector
The phase detector operates at the sync input frequency of 10 to 100kHz. The PD input polarity should be
set to the default PD POL = 1. Phase comparison is performed at the edges.
The input circuit of the phase detector does not contain a hysteresis circuit, so the waveform must be shaped
at the front end of the CXA3106Q when inputting a noisy signal.
The phase detector HOLD signal is supplied by TTL. (See the HOLD Timing Chart.)
The PLL UNLOCK signal is output by an open collector.
(See the UNLOCK Timing Chart.)
Charge Pump
The gain (I, I/4, I/16) can be varied by changing the charge pump current using 2 bits of control register.

LPF
This is a loop filter comprised of the external capacitors and resistor.
Be sure to use metal film resistors with little temperature variation and a temperature-compensated capacitor.
In particular, the 0.33µF capacitor should be equivalent to Murata's high dielectric constant series capacitor
type B or better. (electrostatic capacitance change ratio ±10%: T = –25 to +85°C)
VCO
The VCO oscillator frequency covers from 40 to 120MHz.
VCO Rear-end Counter
The VCO output is frequency divided to 1/1, 1/2 or 1/4 by switching 2 bits of control register.
The operating range can be expanded to 10 to 120MHz by combining the counter with a VCO frequency divider.

Feedback Programmable Counter
This counter can be set as desired from 256 to 4096 using 12 bits.
Frequency divisions = (m + 1) × 8 + n, n: 3 bits (VCO DIV bits 0 to 2), m: 9 bits (VCO DIV bits 3 to 11)
When the register value is changed, the new setting is actually loaded to the counter when the counter value
becomes "all 0".
Clock Output
When SYNC input is positive polarity, the clock is regenerated in synchronization with the rising edge of the
sync signal.
The clock output delay time can be changed in the range of 1/16 to 20/16 CLK using 5 bits of control register.
(See the I/O Timing Chart.)
Output is TTL and PECL (complementary), and supports both positive and negative polarity. Clock TTL
output can also be turned off independently.

1/2 Clock Output
Reset is performed at the delay sync timing and the clock output is frequency divided by 1/2. (See the I/O

Both odd and even output are TTL and PECL output. TTL output can also be turned off independently.
Register: Clock Enable

Delay Sync Output
The front edge of the delay sync pulse is latched by the pulse obtained by frequency dividing the CLK
regenerated by the PLL, so there is almost no jitter with respect to CLK. This front edge can be used as the
reset signal for the system timing circuit.
The rear edge of the delay sync pulse is latched by the CLK regenerated by the PLL. This relationship is
undefined for one clock as shown in the Timing Chart.
The delay sync output delay time can be varied in two stages. First, the delay time can be varied in the range
of 1/16 to 20/16 CLK using 5 bits of control register, and then in the range of 1 to 4 CLK using 2 bits of
control register. In other words, the total delay time is ((1/16 to 20/16) + (1 to 4)) CLK. (See the I/O Timing
Chart.)
DSYNC output is TTL and PECL (complementary), and supports both positive and negative polarity. Clock
TTL output can also be turned off.

Control Register Timing
1) Write mode
Many CXA3106Q functions can be controlled via a program. Characteristics are changed by setting the
internal control register values via a serial interface comprised of three pins: SENABLE (Pin 10), SCLK (Pin
11) and SDATA (Pin 12). The write timing diagram is shown below.
Input the 8-bit data and 3-bit register address MSB first to the SDATA pin. Some registers are not 8 bits, but
the data is input aligned with the LSB side in these cases. (See the Register Table.)
SENABLE is the enable signal and is active low. SCLK is the transfer clock signal, and data is loaded to the
IC at the rising edge. When SENABLE rises, SCLK must be high. (Registers are set at the rising edge of
SENABLE.) When SENABLE falls, SCLK may be either high or low.

The settings of the frequency divider (2 bits, DIV1, 2, 4) and programmable counter (12 bits, VCODIV) at the
rear end of the VCO are transferred in the order shown below. (The data will be set when the three registers
are transferred.)
First DIVREG2, CENFREREG and DIVREG1 are set, and then the data is transferred independently at the
timings shown below.
DIVREG2 (upper 4 bits of VCODIV)

CENFREREG (2 bits of DIV1, 2, 4)

All three of the above registers must be changed even when changing only (2 bits of DIV1, 2, 4). This is the
same when changing only (12 bits of VCODIV).

2) Read mode
Data can be transferred from the shift register to the data register only when SENABLE is high.
Binary data can be read from the data register by inputting SCLK when SENABLE is high. Data is loaded
from the data register to the SCAN PATH circuit each time one clock is input to SCLK, and is output
sequentially from the register read no. 1 data (VCODIV bit 7) through the SEROUT pin. When the 41st SCLK
clock pulse is input, the register read no. 41 data (VCO By-pass) is output. Then, when the 42nd clock pulse
is input to SCLK, the output returns to the register read no. 1 data (VCODIV bit 7) and the data output is
repeated. Also, the data output from the SCAN PATH circuit is automatically reloaded even when the shift
register data is changed during data output.
Note) Since all registers do not have 8 bits, only the valid bits of each register are loaded to the SCAN PATH
circuit. (See the Control Register Table for the actual register read no.)

HOLD signal set-up time (Ths) is a time from the rising edge of HOLD signal to the falling edge of DIVOUT.
Or, when SYNC POL = 1, it is a time from the falling edge of HOLD signal to the rising edge of SYNC; when

HOLD signal hold time (Thh) is the time from the falling edge of DIVOUT to falling edge of HOLD signal. Or,
when SYNC POL = 1, it is the time from the rising edge of SYNC to the rising edge of HOLD signal; when

The unlock detect output is an open collector. When unlock detect output S1 goes high, the current I1 is pulled in.
The UNLOCK sensitivity can be adjusted by connecting external resistors (R1, R2) and a capacitor (C) to this output
pin as appropriate and changing these values. Operation during three modes is described below.
CASE 1: When there is no phase difference, that is to say, when the PLL is locked.
The S1 signal is low and the S2 signal is high.
The UNLOCK output remains low.

CASE 2: When there is a phase difference, that is to say, when the S1 signal goes high and low as shown in
the figure below, the fall slew rate of the S2 signal is determined by the current I1 flowing into that
open collector. Therefore, increasing the resistance R1 causes the S2 signal fall slew rate to
become slower. Also, since the S2 signal rise slew rate is determined by the current I2, reducing
the resistance R2 causes the S2 signal rise slew rate to become faster. If this integrated S2 signal
does not fall below the threshold level of the next inverter, the UNLOCK signal stays low, and the
PLL is said to be locked.

CASE 3: However, even if a phase difference exists as shown above, if the resistance R1 is reduced, the
current I1 flowing into the open collector increases, and the S2 signal fall slew rate becomes faster.
Also, if the resistance R2 is increased, the S2 signal rise slew rate becomes slower. If this
integrated S2 signal falls below the threshold level of the next inverter, the UNLOCK signal goes
from low to high, and the PLL is said to be unlocked.

Charge Pump and Loop Filter Settings
The CXA3106Q's charge pump is a constant-current output type as shown below.
CXA3106Q

When a constant-current output charge pump circuit is used inside the
PLL, the phase detector output acts as a current source, and the
dimension of its transmittance KPD is A/rad. Also, when considering the
S1

S2
VCO input as a voltage, the LPF transmittance dimension must be
expressed in ohms (Ω = V/A).

The PLL closed loop transmittance is obtained by the following formula.
The loop filter F (S) is described below.
The loop filter smoothes the output pulse from the phase comparator and inputs it as the DC component to the
VCO. In addition to this, however, the loop filter also plays an important element in determining the PLL
response characteristics.
Typical examples of loop filters include lag filters, lag-lead filters, active filters, etc. However, the CXA3106Q's
LPF is a current input type active filter as shown below, so the following calculations show an actual example
of deriving the PLL closed loop transmittance when using this type of filter and then using this transmittance to
create a formula for setting the filter constants.

Next, substituting (2) into (1) and obtaining the overall closed loop transmittance for the PLL:
The oscillatory angular frequency when PLL oscillation is assumed to have been maintained by the loop filter
and individual loop gains is called the characteristic angular frequency: ωn.
ζ damping factor:
This is the PLL transient response characteristic, and serves as a measure of the PLL stability. It is
determined by the loop gain and the loop filter.
A capacitor C2 is added to the actual loop filter.
This added capacitor C2 is used to reduce the R noise, and a value of about 1/10 to 1/1000 of C1 should be
selected as necessary.

The CLK jitter is measured at peak to peak in the long-term write mode of the digital oscilloscope as shown in
the figure. The CLK jitter size varies according to the difference in the relative position with respect to Hsync.
Therefore, when the observation point is changed, the CLK jitter at that point is observed.
The figure below shows an typical example of the CLK jitter for the CXA3106Q.
The CLK jitter increases slightly at the rising edge of Hsync (in the case of positive polarity), and then settles
down thereafter. However, this is not a problem as the active pixels start after about 20% of the H cycle has
passed from the rising edge of Hsync.

Notes on Operation
• Be sure not to separate the analog and digital power supplies, and the analog and digital GND.
• The ground pattern should be as wide as possible. Using a multi-layer substrate with a mat ground is
recommended.
• Ground the power supply pins of the IC with a 0.1µF or larger ceramic chip capacitor as close to each pin as
possible.
• Be sure to accurately match the I/O characteristic impedance in order to ensure sufficient performance during
high-speed operation.
• Design the set so that the loop filter (external) is located at the minimum distance. (See the CXA3106Q
PWB.)

CXA3106Q and Sony ADC (Demultiplex Mode) Timing
The CXA3106Q and CXA3026Q/CXA3026AQ/CXA3086Q timings are shown below.
Here, the important timings are as follows.
(The clock cycle is labeled as T.)
• Within the A/D converters
Clock input vs. reset input
The setup time is T–1ns and the hold time is 0ns, satisfying the A/D converter specifications.
• Within the CMOS LOGIC at the rear end of the A/D converters
A/D converter data output vs. 1/2 clock output timing
The setup time is T–4.5ns and the hold time is T–0.5ns. (These timings also include combinations of
three A/D converters from different lots, and are defined for all operating temperatures and all operating

PECL outputs (VBB, DSYNCH, DSYNCL, CLKH, CLKL, CLK/2H, CLK/2L) are output constantly, but TTL
outputs (DSYNC, CLK, CLKN, CLK/2, CLK/2N, SEROUT, DIVOUT, UNLOCK) are controlled by the respective
control registers. Therefore, the enable/disable settings should be made in accordance with the application.
See the following pages for the setting method.

Divisor
This is used to input the frequency division ratio of the program counter. The value can be changed as
desired from 9 to 4111 by moving the cursor to the position of the number and pressing the Return or Enter
key. (Note: The operating range of the CXA3106Q is from 256 to 4096.) The value can also be incremented
or decremented by one step by pressing the Page Up or Page Down key, respectively.
The internal VCO has an oscillator frequency of 40 to 120MHz, so the output frequency and Divider (VCO
frequency divider) setting range are as follows.

This sets the VCO output frequency division ratio to 1/1, 1/2 or 1/4. The frequency division ratio changes
repeatedly in the order of 1/1 → 1/2 → 1/4 → 1/1 each time the cursor is moved to the position of the number
and the Return or Enter key is pressed.
Coarse Delay
This is the DSYNC upper delay time setting. The value can be changed by moving the cursor to the position
of the number and pressing the Return or Enter key. The delay time variable range settings are "00" (1 CLK),
"01" (2 CLK), "10" (3 CLK) or "11" (4 CLK).
Fine Delay
This is the DSYNC lower delay time setting. The value can be changed by moving the cursor to the position
of the number and pressing the Return or Enter key. The value can also be incremented or decremented by
one step by pressing the Page Up or Page Down key, respectively. The delay time can be varied from 1/16
CLK to 32/16 CLK by setting "0" to "31", respectively.
Charge Pump
This is the charge pump circuit KI setting. The value can be changed by moving the cursor to the position of
the number and pressing the Return or Enter key. KI can be set to "00" (about 100µA), "10" (about 400µA) or
"11" (about 1.6mA).
The setting "01" is not used. (Setting "01" is the same as setting "00".)
Polarity
These are the SYNC, DSYNC and PD (Phase Detector) polarity inversion settings, and should be set as
necessary such as when inverting the SYNC input and DSYNC output waveforms. The setting value "1" is
positive polarity, and "0" is negative polarity. These should normally all be set to "1". (Fix PD to "1" other than
during test mode.)
