LMX2582: LOCK DETECT

Part Number: LMX2582

Hello,

We are facing issue regarding the lock detect of the LMX2582.

The lock detect indicate that the PLL is in lock state even if its not (the output frequency is incorrect).

What we can do in order to solve that issue?

Thanks,

Ronel 

  • Hi Ronel,

    Please provide your register configuration. What is your input clock frequency and format?

  • The input CLK is provided by 50Mhz VCTCXO reference, part number - LFVCXO066860Bulk. 

    I want to mention, when the PLL is in lock state, it provided good PN performance -51dBc integrated from 1Khz to 100MHz. 

    The configuration is:

    R70 0x460000
    R69 0x450000
    R68 0x440489
    R64 0x400377

  • Hi Ronel,

    Please set LD_TYPE = 1, this setting will check Vtune voltage to ensure it is indeed locked.

  • Thanks!

    Now its working indeed. 

    We disconnected the loop filter and now the LD indicates that the PLL is not in a locked state - so its working. 

    Thanks,

    Ronel
