PLL Control 0x08 7:2 PLL Band Select[5:0]
This sets the operating frequency range of the
VCO. For details (see Table 23).
111001
0x08 1:0 PLL VCO Drive[1:0]
Controls the signal strength of the VCO output. Set
to 11 for optimal performance.

0x09 7 PLL enable
0: PLL off, DAC sample clock is sourced directly by
the REFCLK input.
1: PLL on, DAC clock synthesized internally from
REFCLK input via PLL clock multiplier.
0
0x09 6:5 PLL VCO Divide Ratio[1:0]
Sets the value of the VCO output divider, which
determines the ratio of the VCO output frequency
to the DAC sample clock frequency, f

Misc. Control 0x0A 7:5
VCO Control Voltage[2:0]
(read only)
000 to 111, proportional to voltage at VCO control
voltage input, readback only. A value of 011
indicates the VCO centered in its frequency range.
000
0x0A 4:0 PLL Loop Bandwidth[4:0]
Controls the bandwidth of the PLL filter. Increasing
the value lowers the loop bandwidth. Set to 01111
for optimal performance.
