Preliminary Information SP5848
SP5848
2.2/1.3GHz 3-Wire Bus Dual Low Phase Noise PLL
Preliminary Information
Features
● Dual independent PLL frequency synthesisers in a
single package, optimised for double conversion
cable tuners, offering improved application
● 2.2GHz up-synthesiser optimised for low phase
noise up to comparison frequencies of 4MHz
Ordering Information
SP5848/KG/QP1S
SP5848/KG/QP1T
Applications
● TV, VCR, and cable tuning systems
The SP5848 is a dual PLL frequency synthesizer
controlled by a 3-wire bus optimised for application in
double conversion tuners.
Each synthesiser loop within the SP5848 is
independently addressable and contains an RF
programmable divider, phase/frequency detector and
charge pump/loop amplifier section; a common
reference frequency oscillator and divider chain is
provided, whose ratios for each loop are independently
programmable.
Both synthesisers are optimised for low phase noise
performance and in addition synthesiser 2 is capable of
operation with a low comparison frequency.
● 1.3GHz down-synthesiser optimised for low phase
noise AND small step size
● Common reference oscillator and divider with
independently selectable ratios for each
synthesiser
● 10:1 programmable charge pump current ratio in up
synthesiser
● 3-Wire bus programmable, each synthesiser
indepently addressable
● Low power consumption, typ 100mW at 5V
● ESD protection, (Normal ESD handling procedures
should be observed)
