LMX2820: LMX2820 lock time

David Park
Expert 7260 points

Part Number: LMX2820

Hi,

Customer would like to reduce lock time with instant calibration.

Now lock time without any action is 100us at frequency hopping.

Reset -> instant cal, lock time is 60us with attached register set.

Could you guide how user can reduce lock time more?

    Hi David,

    Please find below the latest InstCal instruction.

    Initialization register setting
    1. Set DBLBUF_PLL_EN, DBLBUF_CHDIV_EN, DBLBUF_OUTBUF_EN, DBLBUF_OUTMUX_EN = 1
    2. Set DBLR_CAL_EN = 0; INSTCAL_SKIP_ACAL = 0
    3. If VCO doubler is required, set INSTCAL_DBLR_EN = 1, otherwise set this bit to 0
    4. Set INSTCAL_DLY = T x fosc (in MHz) / 2^CAL_CLK_DIV, where T = 2.5 x CBIASVCO / 0.47µF. CBIASVCO is the bypass capacitor at pin 3
    5. Configure other registers prepare to lock to 5.65GHz without any calibration assist
    6. Set INSTCAL_PLL_NUM = 2^32 x (PLL_NUM / PLL_DEN)
    Programming
    7. Vcc power up LMX2820
    8. Program all the registers, LMX2820 should lock to 5.65GHz
    InstCal calibration
    9. Program INSTCAL_EN = 1
    9.5 run Index routine
    10. Program R0 (with FCAL = 1), calibration will begin
    11. Wait 100ms
    12. Program R0 (with FCAL = 0) to complete the calibration
    13. If LD pin did not turn HIGH, program RESET = 1 to reset LMX2820. After LMX2820 is reset, repeat Step 8 to 12
    Changing VCO frequency
    14. Program INSTCAL_PLL_NUM, PLL_N, PLL_NUM and PLL_DEN (if their value have change)
    15. Program R0 (with FCAL = 0) to change VCO frequency

    9.5 Index routine
    1. Program R106[10] = 1 (0X6A 0400)
    2. Program R107[5:0] = 0 (0x6B 0000)
    3. Program R108 = 0 (0x6C 0000)
    4. Program R109 = 0 (0x6D 0000)
    5. Program R106[9:0] = 514 (0x6A 0602)
    6. Program R106[11] = 1 (0x6A 0E02)
    7. Program R106[11] = 0 (0x6A 0602)
    8. Repeat step 5 to 7 for R106[9:0] = 515 to 519
    9. Program R106[10] = 0 (0x6A 0207)
