The IF count is started by changing the CTE bit in the serial data from 0 to 1. The serial data is latched by the LC72137 when the CE pin is dropped from high to low. The IF signal must be supplied to the IFIN pin in the period between the point the CE pin goes low and the end of the wait time at the latest. Next, the value of the IF count at the end of the measurement period must be read out during the period CTE is 1. This is because the IF counter is reset when CTE is set to 0. Note: When operating the IF counter, the control microcontroller must first check the state of the IF-IC SD (station detect) signal and only after determining that the SD signal is present turn on IF buffer output and execute an IF count operation. Auto-search techniques that use only the IF counter are not recommended, since it is possible for IF buffer leakage output to cause incorrect stops at points where there is no station. If the auto-search technique is implemented using only the IF counter in combination with an IF-IC without SD output, sensitivity-degradation mode ( IFS = 0 ) should be selected. No. 5743-17/23 LC72137, 72137M Unlock Detection Timing 1. Unlock Detection Determination Timing Unlock detection is performed in the reference frequency (fref) period (interval). Therefore, in principle, unlock determination requires a time longer than the period of the reference frequency. However, immediately after changing the divisor N (frequency) unlock detection must be performed after waiting at least two periods of the reference frequency. Figure 1 Unlock Detection Timing For example, if fref is 1 kHz (and thus the period is 1 ms), after changing the divisor N, the system must wait at least 2 ms before checking for the unlocked state. Figure 2 Circuit Structure No. 5743-18/23 LC72137, 72137M 2. Unlock Detection Software Figure 3 3. When Outputting Unlock Data Using Serial Data Output: Once the LC72137 detects an unlocked state, it does not reset the unlock data (UL) until the next data output (or data input) operation is performed. At the data output x point in Figure 3, although the VCO frequency is stable (locked), the unlock data remains set to the unlocked state since no data output has been performed since the value of N was changed. Thus, even though the frequency became stable (locked), from the point of view of the data, the circuit is in the unlocked state. Therefore, the data output x immediately following a change to the value of N should be seen as a dummy data, and the data from the second data output (data output y) and later outputs should be seen as valid data. Lock Determination Flowchart No. 5743-19/23 LC72137, 72137M When directly outputting data from the DO pin (set up by the DO pin control data) Since the DO pin outputs the unlocked state (locked: high, unlocked: low) the timing considerations in the technique described in the previous section are not necessary. After changing the value of N, the locked state can be determined after waiting at least two periods of the reference frequency. Notes on Clock Time Base Usage When the clock time base output is used, the value of the pull-up resistor for the output pin (BO1) must be at least 100 kΩ. We recommend the use of a Schmitt input on the receiving controller (microprocessor) to prevent chattering.This is to avoid degradation of the VCO C/N characteristics when using the built-in low-pass filter transistor to form the loop filter. Since the clock time base output pin and the low-pass filter transistor ground are the same mode in the IC, the time base output pin current fluctuations must be suppressed to limit the influence on the low-pass filter.

Notes on the Phase Comparator Dead Zone DZ1 0 0 1 1 DZ0 0 1 0 1 Dead-zone mode DZA DZB DZC DZD Charge pump ON/ON ON/ON OFF/OFF OFF/OFF Dead zone – –0 s –0 s +0 s + +0 s Since correction pulses are output from the charge pump even if the PLL is locked when the charge pump is in the ON/ON state, the loop can easily become unstable. This point requires special care when designing application circuits. The following problems may occur in the ON/ON state. • Side band generation due to reference frequency leakage • Side band generation due to both the correction pulse envelope and low frequency leakage No. 5743-20/23 LC72137, 72137M Schemes in which a dead zone is present (OFF/OFF) have good loop stability, but have the problem that acquiring a high C/N ratio can be difficult. On the other hand, although it is easy to acquire a high C/N ratio with schemes in which there is no dead zone, it is difficult to achieve high loop stability. Therefore, it can be effective to select DZA or DZB, which have no dead zone, in applications which require an FM S/N ratio in excess of 90 to 100 dB, or in which an increased AM stereo pilot margin is desired. On the other hand, we recommend selecting DZC or DZD, which provide a dead zone, for applications which do not require such a high FM signal-to-noise ratio and in which either AM stereo is not used or an adequate AM stereo pilot margin can be achieved. Dead Zone The phase comparator compares fp to a reference frequency (fr) as shown in Figure 4. Although the characteristics of this circuit (see Figure 5) are such that the output voltage is proportional to the phase difference ø (line A), a region (the dead zone) in which it is not possible to compare small phase differences occurs in actual ICs due to internal circuit delays and other factors (line B). A dead zone as small as possible is desirable for products that must provide a high S/N ratio. However, since a larger dead zone makes this circuit easier to use, a larger dead zone is appropriate for popularlypriced products. This is because it is possible for RF signals to leak from the mixer to the VCO and modulate the VCO in popularly-priced products in the presence of strong RF inputs. When the dead zone is narrow, the circuit outputs correction pulses and this output can further modulate the VCO and generate beat frequencies with the RF signal. Figure 4 Figure 5 2. Notes on the FMIN, AMIN, and IFIN Pins Coupling capacitors must be placed as close as possible to their respective pin. A capacitance of about 100 pF is desirable. In particular, if a capacitance of 1000 pF or over is used for the IF pin, the time to reach the bias level will increase and incorrect counting may occur due to the relationship with the wait time. 3. Notes on IF Counting → SD must be used in conjunction with the IF counting time When using IF counting, always implement IF counting by having the microprocessor determine the presence of the IF-IC SD (station detect) signal and turn on the IF counter buffer only if the SD signal is present. Schemes in which auto-searches are performed with only IF counting are not recommended, since they can stop at points where there is no signal due to leakage output from the IF counter buffer.

Also, an input pin state can be output unchanged through the DO pin and input to the controller. 5. Power Supply Pins A capacitor of at least 2000 pF must be inserted between the power supply VDD and VSS pins for noise exclusion. This capacitor must be placed as close as possible to the VDD and VSS pins. 6. Note on VCO designing VCO ( local oscillator ) must keep its oscillation even if the control voltage ( Vtune ) goes to 0V. When there is a possibility of oscillation halt, Vtune must be forcibly set to VCC temporarily to prevent the PLL from being deadlocked.
