RSET Pin Resistor 4.12 kΩ Sets internal biasing currents; connect to ground
CPRSET Pin Resistor 2.7 5.1 10 kΩ Sets internal CP current range, nominally 4.8 mA (CP_lsb = 600 µA);
actual current can be calculated by CP_lsb = 3.06/CPRSET;
connect to ground
BYPASS Pin Capacitor 220 nF Bypass for internal LDO regulator; necessary for LDO stability;

REFERENCE INPUTS
Differential Mode (REFIN,
REFIN
)
Differential mode (can accommodate single-ended input by
ac grounding undriven input)
Input Frequency 0 250 MHz Frequencies below about 1 MHz should be dc-coupled; be careful
to match V

PLL figure of merit (FOM) increases with increasing slew rate
(see Figure 10); the input sensitivity is sufficient for ac-coupled
