AUX
The output LOCK is H when the auxiliary phase detector AND the
main phase detector indicates a lock condition. The lock condition
is defined as a phase difference of less than +1 cycle on the
reference input REF_IN. The lock condition is also fulfilled when the
relative counter is disabled (EM = “0” or respectively EA = “0”) for
the main, respectively auxiliary counter.
If T1 = High and T0 = High, the lock output is configured as f
The signal is the buffered output of the MAIN divider. The f
signal appears as normally high and pulses low whenever the
divider reaches terminal count from the value programmed into the
NM1, NM2 or NM3 registers. The f signal can be used to verify

and T0 of the E word control the selection (see Figures 6 and 10).
If T1 = T0 = Low, or if the E-word is not sent, the lock output is
configured as the normal lock output described in the Lock Detect
section.

REF
The signal is the buffered output of the reference divider NR and the
3-bit binary counter SM. The f signal appears as normally low

and pulses high whenever the divider reaches terminal count from
the value programmed into the NR and SM registers. The f
REF
signal can be used to verify the divide ratio of the Reference divider.
