DESCRIPTIONS FOR CONTROL REGISTERS
Channel Select Register (CSR)—Address 0x00
One byte is assigned to this register.
The CSR determines if channels are enabled or disabled by the status of the two channel enable bits. Both channels are enabled by their
default state. The CSR also determines which serial mode of operation is selected. In addition, the CSR offers a choice of MSB first or LSB
first format.
Table 31. Bit Descriptions for CSR
Bit Mnemonic Description
7:6 Channel [1:0] enable Bits are active immediately after being written. They do not require an I/O update to take effect.
There are two sets of channel registers and profile (channel word) registers, one per channel. This
is not shown in the channel register map or the profile register map. The addresses of all channel
registers and profile registers are the same for each channel. Therefore, the channel enable bits
distinguish the channel registers and profile registers values of each channel. For example,
10 = only Channel 1 receives commands from the channel registers and profile registers.
01 = only Channel 0 receives commands from the channel registers and profile registers.
11 = both Channel 0 and Channel 1 receive commands from the channel registers and profile
registers.
5:4 Open
3 Must be 0 Must be set to 0.
2:1 Serial I/O mode select 00 = single-bit serial (2-wire mode).
01 = single-bit serial (3-wire mode).
10 = 2-bit serial mode.
11 = 4-bit serial mode.
See the Serial I/O Modes of Operation section for more details.
0 LSB first 0 = the serial interface accepts serial data in MSB first format (default).
1 = the serial interface accepts serial data in LSB first format.
Function Register 1 (FR1)—Address 0x01
Three bytes are assigned to this register. FR1 is used to control the mode of operation of the chip.

Bit Mnemonic Description
23 VCO gain control 0 = the low range (system clock below 160 MHz) (default).
1 = the high range (system clock above 255 MHz).
22:18
PLL divider ratio
If the value is 4 or 20 (decimal) or between 4 and 20, the PLL is enabled and the value sets the
multiplication factor. If the value is outside of 4 and 20 (decimal), the PLL is disabled.
17:16 Charge pump control 00 (default) = the charge pump current is 75 µA.
01 = charge pump current is 100 µA.
10 = charge pump current is 125 µA.
11 = charge pump current is 150 µA.

14:12 Profile pin configuration (PPC) The profile pin configuration bits control the configuration of the data and SDIO_x pins for the
different modulation modes. See the Modulation Mode section in this document for details.
11:10 Ramp-up/ramp-down (RU/RD) The RU/RD bits control the amplitude ramp-up/ramp-down time of a channel. See the Output
Amplitude Control Mode section for more details.
9:8 Modulation level The modulation (FSK, PSK, and ASK) level bits control the level (2/4/8/16) of modulation to be
performed for a channel. See the Modulation Mode section for more details.
7 Reference clock input 0 = the clock input circuitry is enabled for operation (default).
power-down 1 = the clock input circuitry is disabled and is in a low power dissipation state.
