10.1. RegNDivLsb Register
This register is a read/write register. It configures the least significant 8-bits of Ndiv, the feedback divider ratio of the PLL.
As writing RegNDivLsb triggers the calibration of the VCO, the user should first update RegNdivMsb, then configure
RegNdivLsb if both need to be updated in a frequency hop. Doing this avoids wrong calibration sequences and extended
lock times.
10.2. RegNDivMsb Register
This register is a read/write register. Bits [1:0] configure the two most significant bits of Ndiv, the feedback divider ratio of
the PLL.
10.3. RegRDiv Register
This register is a read/write register. The five least significant bits configure the division factor of the Rdiv prescaler of the
PLL.
10.4. RegGenCtrl Register
This register is a read/write register to configure the output and calibration modes.

Description
RF out upon Lock Detection:
0 : The RF output is enabled only when the PLL is locked (Default)
1 : The RF output is enabled whatever the Lock detector state.
Calibration mode
0 : Writing to RegNDivLsb triggers calibration (Default)
1 : Writing to RegRDiv or RegNDivLsb triggers calibration
Output Buffer Current
00 : Output current is 3.5 mA (Default)
01 : Output current is 5 mA
10 : Output current is 7.5 mA
11 : Output current is 11 mA
