    www.ti.com Software Operation Figure 4. Default CDCM7005 SPI GUI The divider parameters, M and N, are determined according to the following equation based on the internal reference frequency and internal VCXO frequency. × M)/(N × P) = (F VCXO The p parameter is the VCXO input divider and set through the FB_MUX value. The M and N counter values need to be adjusted depending on the board configuration.
