Product Specification
PE3239
Product Description
Peregrine’s PE3239 is a high performance integer-N PLL
capable of frequency synthesis up to 2.2 GHz. The
superior phase noise performance of the PE3239 is ideal
for applications such as wireless local loop basestations,
LMDS systems and other demanding terrestrial systems.
The PE3239 features a 10/11 dual modulus prescaler,
counters, phase detector and a charge pump as shown in
Figure 1. Counter values are programmable through a
three wire serial interface.
The PE3239 is manufactured on Peregrine’s UltraCMOS™
process, a patented variation of silicon-on-insulator (SOI)
technology on a sapphire substrate, offering the
performance of GaAs with the economy and integration of
conventional CMOS.

Description
Power supply input. Input may range from 2.85 V to 3.15 V. Bypassing required.
Enhancement mode. When asserted low (“0”), enhancement register bits are functional. Internal 70 kΩ
pull-up resistor.
Serial load enable input. While S_WR is “low”, Sdata can be serially clocked. Primary register data are
transferred to the secondary register on S_WR rising edge.
Binary serial data input. Input data entered MSB first.
Serial clock input. Sdata is clocked serially into the 20-bit primary register (E_WR “low”) or the 8-bit
enhancement register (E_WR “high”) on the rising edge of Sclk.
Ground.

Input
Selects contents of primary register (FSELS=1) or secondary register (FSELS=0) for programming of internal
counters. Internal 70 kΩ pull-down resistor.
Enhancement register write enable. While E_WR is “high”, Sdata can be serially clocked into the
enhancement register on the rising edge of Sclk. Internal 70 kΩ pull-down resistor.
Same as pin 1.
Prescaler input from the VCO. Max frequency input is 2.2 GHz.
Prescaler complementary input. A bypass capacitor should be placed as close as possible to this pin and be
connected in series with a 50
Ω
resistor to the ground plane.
Ground.
Output

Output
(Note 1)
Logical “NAND” of PD_U and PD_D terminated through an on chip, 2 kΩ series resistor. Connecting Cext to
an external capacitor will low pass filter the input to the inverting amplifier used for driving LD.
Lock detect is an open drain logical inversion of CEXT. When the loop is in lock, LD is high impedance,
otherwise LD is a logic low (“0”).
Data out function, Dout, enabled in enhancement mode.
Same as pin 1.

When handling this UltraCMOS™ device, observe
the same precautions that you would use with
other ESD-sensitive devices. Although this device
contains circuitry to protect it from damage due to
ESD, precautions should be taken to avoid
exceeding the specified rating in Table 4.
Latch-Up Avoidance
Unlike conventional CMOS devices, UltraCMOS™
devices are immune to latch-up.

fclk is verified during the functional pattern test. Serial programming sections of the functional pattern are clocked at 10 MHz to verify fclk
specification.
CMOS logic levels can be used to drive reference input if DC coupled. Voltage input needs to be a minimum of 0.5 Vp-p. For optimum
phase noise performance, the reference input falling edge rate should be faster than 80 mV/ns.
Parameter is guaranteed through characterization only and is not tested.
