LMX2305
PLLatinumTM 550 MHz Frequency Synthesizer
for RF Personal Communications
General Description
Features
Y
RF operation up to 550 MHz
The LMX2305 is a high performance frequency synthesizer
with an integrated prescaler designed for RF operation up to
550 MHz. It is fabricated using National’s ABiC IV BiCMOS
process.

The LMX2305 contains a dual modulus prescaler which can
select either a 64/65 or a 128/129 divide ratio at input fre-
quencies of up to 550 MHz. LMX2305, which employs the
digital phase lock loop technique, combined with a high
quality reference oscillator and a loop filter, provides the
tuning voltage for the voltage controlled oscillator to gener-
ate a very stable, low noise local oscillator signal.

Applications
Y
Analog Cellular telephone systems
(AMPS, ETACS, NMT)
Serial data is transferred into the LMX2305 via a three line
MICROWIRETM interface (Data, Enable, Clock). Supply volt-
age can range from 2.65V to 5.5V. The LMX2305 features
very low current consumption, typically 4.0 mA at 2.75V.
Y
Portable wireless communications
(PCS/PCN, cordless)
Y
Wireless local area networks (WLANs)
The LMX2305 is available in a TSSOP 20-pin surface mount
plastic package.
