9 Power Supply Recommendations

TI recommends placing a 100-nF capacitor close to each of the power supply pins. If fractional spurs are a large concern, using a ferrite bead to each of these power supply pins may reduce spurs to a small degree.

VcpExt is the power supply pin for the 5-V charge pump. In PLL mode, the 5-V charge pump is active and a 5 V is required at VcpExt pin. In synthesizer mode, although the 5-V charge pump is not active, either a 3.3-V or 5-V supply is still needed at this pin.

Because LMX2571-EP has integrated LDOs, the requirement to external power supply is relaxed. In addition to LDO, LMX2571-EP is able to operate with DC-DC converter. The switching noise from the DC-DC converter would not affect performance of the LMX2571-EP. Table 9-1 lists some of the suggested DC-DC converters.
