The dynamic behaviour of the PLL is fixed by an
external filter which integrates the current of the
charge pump. A “CRC” filter is generally used (see
Figure 9).
PLL1 is inhibited by applying a high level on Pin 14
(PLLinhib)which is a TTL compatibleinput. The inhibi-
tion results from the opening of a switch located be-
tween the charge pump and the filter (see Figure 8).
The VCO uses an external RC network. It delivers
a linear sawtooth obtained by charge and dis-
charge of the capacitor, by a current proportionnal
to the current in the resistor. typical thresholds of
sawtooth are 1.6V and 6.4V (see Figure 10).
The control voltage of the VCO is typically com-
prised between 1.6V and 6V (see Figure 10). The
theoreticalfrequencyrangeof thisVCO isin the ratio
1 → 3.75, but due to spread and thermal drift of
external componentsand the circuit itself, the effec-

tive frequency range has to be smaller (e.g. 30kHz
→ 85kHz). In the absence of synchronisationsignal
the control voltageis equal to 1.6V typ.and the VCO
oscillates on its lowest frequency (free frequency).
The synchro frequencyhasto be alwayshigherthan
the free frequencyand a margin has to be taken. As
an example for a synchro range from 30kHz to
85kHz, the suggested free frequency is 27kHz.
