The NE568A as a wideband FM modulator
Application note
AN1882
INTRODUCTION
The NE/SA568A used as an FM modulator for frequencies up to
140MHz is described. This device is fabricated on 8GHz integrated
bipolar technology and operates at 5V. The VCO gain constant, KO,
is 4.2 x 10 rad/ volt-sec at a center frequency of 70MHz. This is
equal to approximately 670MHz per volt. The gain, KO, is calculated
from the magnitude of the frequency deviation as a function of the
differential voltage present at Pins 17 and 18. Figure 1 shows the
equivalent VCO circuit as used in this application.
The internal phase detector reference inputs are hard wired to the
VCO as shown in Figure 2. When used as a modulator the phase
detector error voltage outputs (Pins 19 and 20) are no longer tied to
the VCO inputs as with normal PLL operation. Instead these pins
become the output for the modulator.

Linearization of the Modulator
In order to change the transfer function of the VCO-Phase Detector
block from an exponential small signal function to a linear
voltage-to-frequency converter, the output buffer amplifier signal is
fed back from Pin 14 to Pin 18 (inverting input) of the VCO (see
Figure 3). The output buffer amplifier has a gain of approximately
25dB. Pin 15 of the buffer amplifier allows for the addition of a shunt
oriented passive filter to the feedback loop. The filter -3dB
frequency is calculated based on a Pin 15 source impedance of
350Ω. A typical shunt lowpass filter consists of a 100pF capacitor
from Pin 15 to ground and has a break frequency of 4.5MHz.

Modulator Frequency Deviation
The modulator frequency is determined by the frequency set
capacitor, CO, attached to Pins 4 and 5. The value of the frequency
set capacitor is calculated by the formula given below for FO equal
to 70MHz.
CO = (0.0013 /fO) Farad; @ fO = 70MHz, kO = 0.0013
A linearizing DC bias current is fed into Pin 17 through an RF choke
and series resistor RIN as shown in Figure 4. This reduces the
harmonic content of the output signal while also increasing its
amplitude. The AC modulator output signal appears on Pins 19 and
20 superimposed on a DC common mode voltage 4.8V above
ground. In order to provide a low impedance ground referenced
output signal, a gain-of-two buffer amplifier (NE5539) is added. The
output impedance is 75Ω. Note that the buffer amp differential input
resistance is kept relatively high in order to reduce loading on the
internal differential stage (RS = 200Ω.) This also decreases the
harmonic distortion of the modulator output waveform. Harmonic
distortion and added sideband interference may be further reduced
by the addition of low pass filters around the buffer amplifier, but
caution is required due to the critical stability requirements of very
wideband amplifiers such as the NE5539.
