8.1.7 Current Consumption Management

The starting point is the typical total current consumption of 250 mA: 100-MHz input frequency, OSCin doubler bypassed, Pre-R divider bypassed, multiplier bypassed, post-R divider bypassed, 100-MHz phase detector frequency, 0.468-mA charge pump current, channel divider off, one output on, 6000-MHz output frequency, 50-Ω output pullup, 0-dBm output power (differential). To understand current consumption changes due to engaging different functional blocks , refer to Table 8-3.
