LMX2531LQ2570E

Texas Instruments · Clock Generators, PLLs, Frequency Synthesizers · WQFN-36(6x6)

LMX2531LQ2570E from Texas Instruments, in a WQFN-36(6x6). 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 VccDIG power_in Power supply for the digital LDO circuitry; input may range from 2.8 to 3.2 V, and bypass capacitors should be placed as close as possible to this pin and ground.
2 NC unconnected No connect pin.
3 GND power_in Ground.
4 NC unconnected No connect pin.
5 NC unconnected No connect pin.
6 VregBUF power_out Internally regulated voltage for the VCO buffer circuitry; connect to ground with a capacitor.
7 NC unconnected No connect pin.
8 DATA input MICROWIRE serial data input (high-impedance CMOS) that must not exceed 2.75 V; data is clocked in MSB first.
9 CLK input MICROWIRE clock input (high-impedance CMOS) that must not exceed 2.75 V; data is clocked into the shift register on the rising edge.
10 LE input MICROWIRE latch enable input (high-impedance CMOS) that must not exceed 2.75 V; data in the shift register is loaded into the selected latch when LE goes high.
11 CE input Chip enable input (high-impedance CMOS) that must not exceed 2.75 V; when brought high the LMX2531 powers up, and R0 must be reprogrammed to re-lock after power-down.
12 NC unconnected No connect pin.
13 NC unconnected No connect pin.
14 NC unconnected No connect pin; do NOT ground (this also applies to the pad above this pin).
15 NC unconnected No connect pin; do NOT ground (this also applies to the pad above this pin).
16 VccVCO power_in Power supply for the VCO regulator circuitry; input may range from 2.8 to 3.2 V, with bypass capacitors placed close to this pin.
17 VregVCO power_out Internally regulated voltage for the VCO circuitry, not intended to drive an external load; connect to ground with a capacitor and some series resistance.
18 VrefVCO power_out Internal reference voltage for the VCO LDO, not intended to drive an external load; connect to ground with a capacitor.
19 GND power_in Ground for the VCO circuitry.
20 GND power_in Ground for the VCO output buffer circuitry.
21 Fout output Buffered RF output for the VCO.
22 VccBUF power_in Power supply for the VCO buffer circuitry; input may range from 2.8 to 3.2 V, with bypass capacitors placed close to this pin.
23 Vtune input Tuning voltage input for the VCO, connected to CPout through an external passive loop filter.
24 CPout output Charge pump output for the PLL, connected to Vtune through an external passive loop filter.
25 FLout output Open-drain NMOS output used for FastLock or as a general-purpose output.
26 VregPLL1 power_out Internally regulated voltage for the PLL charge pump, not intended to drive an external load; connect to ground with a capacitor.
27 VccPLL power_in Power supply for the PLL; input may range from 2.8 to 3.2 V, with bypass capacitors placed close to this pin.
28 VregPLL2 power_out Internally regulated voltage for the RF digital circuitry, not intended to drive an external load; connect to ground with a capacitor.
29 NC unconnected No connect pin.
30 Ftest/LD output Multiplexed CMOS output typically used to monitor PLL lock condition; its output level is set by VOH and VOL, not by VCC.
31 OSCin input Oscillator input.
32 OSCin* input Complementary oscillator input; when a single-ended source is used, a bypass capacitor should be placed as close as possible to this pin and connected to ground.
33 Test output Test pin for test purposes that should be grounded for normal operation.
34 GND power_in Ground.
35 NC unconnected No connect pin.
36 VregDIG power_out Internally regulated voltage for the LDO digital circuitry; a 10 nF bypass capacitor is recommended.
37 EP passive Exposed pad (from the footprint; not named in the datasheet pin table).
