Texas Instruments · Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers · TSSOP-20

LMX2430TMX from Texas Instruments, in a TSSOP-20. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VCC power_in Power supply bias for the RF PLL analog circuits; Vcc may range from 2.25 V to 2.75 V, and bypass capacitors must be placed as close as possible to this pin and connected directly to the ground plane.
2 GND power_in Ground for the IF PLL analog and digital circuits, MICROWIRE, Ftest/LD and oscillator circuits.
3 FinIF input IF PLL prescaler input, a small-signal input from the VCO.
4 EN input Chip enable: HIGH powers up the RF and IF PLLs with power-down then controlled through MICROWIRE; LOW asynchronously powers down the device and forces the charge-pump outputs to a high-impedance (tri-state) state.
5 CPoutIF output IF PLL charge-pump output, connected to the external loop filter that drives the input of the IF VCO.
6 ENosc input Oscillator enable: HIGH keeps the oscillator buffer powered up independent of EN; LOW configures OSCout/FLoutIF as the IF fastlock output.
7 OSCout/FLoutIF output Oscillator output for an external crystal when ENosc is HIGH, or IF PLL fastlock output (also a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output) when ENosc is LOW, connecting a resistor in parallel to R2 of the external loop filter.
8 OSCin input Reference oscillator input with an approximate Vcc/2 threshold, driven by an external AC-coupled source.
9 VCC power_in Power supply bias for the RF PLL analog circuits; Vcc may range from 2.25 V to 2.75 V, and bypass capacitors must be placed as close as possible to this pin and connected directly to the ground plane.
10 Ftest/LD output Programmable multiplexed output that functions as a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output, N and R divider output, RF/IF PLL push-pull or open-drain analog lock-detect output, or RF/IF PLL digital filtered lock-detect output.
11 FLoutRF output RF PLL fastlock output connecting a resistor in parallel to R2 of the external loop filter, which can also function as a general-purpose CMOS tri-state output.
12 GND power_in Ground for the IF PLL analog and digital circuits, MICROWIRE, Ftest/LD and oscillator circuits.
13 CPoutRF output RF PLL charge-pump output, connected to the external loop filter that drives the input of the RF VCO.
14 GND power_in Ground for the IF PLL analog and digital circuits, MICROWIRE, Ftest/LD and oscillator circuits.
15 FinRF input RF PLL prescaler input, a small-signal input from the VCO.
16 FinRF* input RF PLL prescaler complementary input; for single-ended operation it must be AC grounded through a 100-pF capacitor, and the device can be driven differentially when that AC-coupling capacitor is omitted.
17 VCC power_in Power supply bias for the RF PLL analog circuits; Vcc may range from 2.25 V to 2.75 V, and bypass capacitors must be placed as close as possible to this pin and connected directly to the ground plane.
18 LE input MICROWIRE latch enable, high-impedance CMOS input; when LE transitions HIGH, data in the shift register is loaded into one of 6 internal control registers.
19 CLK input MICROWIRE clock input, high-impedance CMOS; DATA is clocked into the 24-bit shift register on the rising edge of CLK.
20 DATA input MICROWIRE data input, high-impedance CMOS; binary serial data with the MSB shifted in first and the two last bits being the control bits.
