GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The UMA1015M is a low-power dual frequency
synthesizer for radio communications which operates in
the 50 to 1100 MHz frequency range. Each synthesizer
consists of a fully programmable main divider, a phase and
frequency detector and a charge pump. There is a fully
programmable reference divider common to both
synthesizers which operates up to 35 MHz. The device is
programmed via a 3-wire serial bus which operates up to
10 MHz. The charge pump currents (gains) are fixed by an
external resistance at pin 20 (I
designed to operate from 2.6 V (3 Ni-Cd cells) to 5.5 V at
low current. Digital supplies V
same potential. The charge pump supply (VCC) can be
provided by an external source or on-chip voltage doubler.
VCC must be equal to or higher than V
synthesizer can be powered-down independently via the
serial bus to save current. It is also possible to power-down
the device via the HPD input (pin 5).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Main dividers
Each synthesizer has a fully programmable 17-bit main
divider. The RF input drives a pre-amplifier to provide the
clock to the first divider bit. The pre-amplifier has a high
input impedance, dominated by pin and pad capacitance.
The circuit operates with signal levels from below
50 mV (RMS) up to 250 mV (RMS), and at frequencies up
to 1.1 GHz. The high frequency sections of the divider are
implemented using bipolar transistors, while the slower
section uses CMOS technology. The range of division
ratios is 512 to 131071.
Reference divider
There is a common fully programmable 12-bit reference
divider for the two synthesizers. The input f
XTALIN
drives a
1995 Jun 224
pre-amplifier to provide the clock input for the reference
divider. This clock signal is also buffered and output on pin
(open drain). An extra divide-by-2 block allows a
f
XTALO
reference comparison frequency for synthesizer B to be
half that of synthesizer A. This feature is selectable using
the program bit SR. If the programmed reference divider
ratio is R then the ratio for each synthesizer is as given in
Table 1.
The range for the division ratio R is 8 to 4095. Opposite
edges of the divider output are used to drive the phase
detectors to ensure that active edges arrive at the phase
detectors of each synthesizer at different times. This
minimizes the potential for interference between the
charge pumps of each loop. The reference divider consists
of CMOS devices operating beyond 35 MHz.

Phase comparators
For each synthesizer, the outputs of the main and
reference dividers drive a phase comparator where a
charge pump produces phase error current pulses for
integration in an external loop filter. The charge pump
current is set by an external resistance R
where a temperature-independent voltage of 1.2 V is
generated. R

should be between 12 kΩ and 60 kΩ (to
SET
of 100 µA and 20 µA respectively).
The charge-pump current, ICP, can be programmed to be
either (12 × I
) or (24 × I
SET
) with the maximum being
SET
2.4 mA. The dead zone, caused by finite switching of
current pulses, is cancelled by an internal delay in the
phase detector thus giving improved linearity. The charge
pump has a separate supply, VCC, which helps to reduce
the interference on the charge pump output from other
parts of the circuit. Also, VCC can be higher than V
wider range on the VCO input is required. VCC must not be
less than V
DD1
.
Voltage doubler
If required, there is a voltage doubler on-chip to supply the
charge pumps at a higher level than the nominal available
supply. The doubler operates from the digital supply V
and is internally limited to a maximum output of 6 V.
An external capacitor is required on pin VCC for smoothing,
the capacitor required to develop the extra voltage is
integrated on-chip. To minimize the noise being introduced
to the charge pump output from the voltage doubler, the
doubler clock is suppressed (provided both loops are
in-lock) for the short time that the charge pumps are active.
The doubler clock (RF/64) is derived from whichever main
divider is operating (synthesizer A has priority). While both
synthesizers are powered down (and the doubler is
enabled), the doubler clock is supplied by a low-current
internal oscillator. The doubler can be disabled by
programming the bit VDON to logic 0, in order to allow an
external charge pump supply to be used.

output is forced LOW). The lock condition output is
software selectable (see Table 4). An out-of-lock condition
is flagged when the phase error is greater than T
value of which is approximately equal to 80 cycles of the
relevant RF input. The out-of-lock flag is only released
after 8 consecutive reference cycles where the phase error
is less than T
via the serial bus, and the pin P0/OOL can be used as an
output port. Three other port outputs P1, P2 and P3
(open-drain transistors) are also available.
Serial programming bus
A simple 3-line unidirectional serial bus is used to program
the circuit. The 3 lines are DATA, CLK and
data sent to the device is loaded in bursts framed by E.
Programming clock edges are ignored until E goes active
LOW. The programmed information is loaded into the
addressed latch when E returns inactive HIGH. This is
allowed when CLK is in either state without causing any
consequences to the register data. Only the last 21 bits
serially clocked into the device are retained within the
programming register. Additional leading bits are ignored,
and no check is made on the number of clock pulses. The
fully static CMOS design uses virtually no current when the
bus is inactive. It can always capture new programming
data even during power-down of both synthesizers.
However when either synthesizer A or synthesizer B or
both are powered-on, the presence of a TCXO signal is
required at pin 8 (f
,
Data format
Data is entered with the most significant bit first. The
leading bits make up the data field, while the trailing four
bits are an address field. The address bits are decoded on
the rising edge of
to store the data in the addressed latch. To ensure that
data is correctly loaded on first power-up,E should be held
LOW and only taken HIGH after having programmed an
appropriate register. To avoid erroneous divider ratios, the
pulse is inhibited during the period when data is read by
the frequency dividers. This condition is guaranteed by
respecting a minimum E pulse width after data transfer.
The data format and register bit allocations are shown in

Power-down modes
The device can be powered down either via pin HPD
(active LOW = power-down) or via the serial bus (bits
SPDA and SPDB, logic 0 = power-down). The
synthesizers are powered up when both hardware and
software Power-down signals are at logic 1. When only
one synthesizer is powered down, the functions common
to both will be maintained. When both synthesizers are

SOLDERING SO or SSOP
Introduction
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC
packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when
through-hole and surface mounted components are mixed
on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is
not always suitable for surface mounted ICs, or for
printed-circuits with high population densities. In these
cases reflow soldering is often used.
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our
“IC Package Databook”
Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering techniques are suitable for all SO and
SSOP packages.
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
Several techniques exist for reflowing; for example,
thermal conduction by heated belt. Dwell times vary
between 50 and 300 seconds depending on heating
method. Typical reflow temperatures range from 215 to
250 °C.
Preheating is necessary to dry the paste and evaporate
the binding agent. Preheating duration: 45 minutes at
45 °C.

SSOP
Wave soldering is not recommended for SSOP packages.
This is because of the likelihood of solder bridging due to
closely-spaced leads and the possibility of incomplete
solder penetration in multi-lead devices.
If wave soldering cannot be avoided, the following
conditions must be observed:
• A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave)
soldering technique should be used.
• The longitudinal axis of the package footprint must
be parallel to the solder flow and must incorporate
solder thieves at the downstream end.
Even with these conditions, only consider wave
soldering SSOP packages that have a body width of
4.4 mm, that is SSOP16 (SOT369-1) or
SSOP20 (SOT266-1).
METHOD (SO OR SSOP)
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
Maximum permissible solder temperature is 260 °C, and
maximum duration of package immersion in solder is
10 seconds, if cooled to less than 150 °C within
6 seconds. Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
SO
Wave soldering techniques can be used for all SO
packages if the following conditions are observed:
• A double-wave (a turbulent wave with high upward
pressure followed by a smooth laminar wave) soldering
technique should be used.
• The longitudinal axis of the package footprint must be
parallel to the solder flow.
• The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves at
the downstream end.

Repairing soldered joints
Fix the component by first soldering two diagonally-
opposite end leads. Use only a low voltage soldering iron
(less than 24 V) applied to the flat part of the lead. Contact
time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to 300 °C. When
using a dedicated G, all other leads can be soldered in one
operation within 2 to 5 seconds at 270 to 320 °C.
