6.2.3 Control Register
When writing data to the Control Register, it is necessary to include a Protocol Field to
identify the data as Control Register data.
Protocol Field (6 bits) = 0 1 1 1 1 0
It is important that the sequence of four ones contained in the protocol field never be sent
except as part of the Protocol Field. Thus, when writing programming word data to the
device, it is necessary to use a technique of inserting an extra zero after a run of three
ones; this technique is called "bit stuffing", and is described in more detail in section 6.2.4.
The control register contains eight bits, which are defined as shown in Table 6.1.

Control register data is written to the device starting with bit 0 of the control word,
continuing to bit 7 of the control word, and followed by the 6 bits of the Protocol field, for a
total of 14 bits.
Note that the default configuration of the device following power-up results in the output
being at the frequency of the reference oscillator which is 14.31818 MHz.
6.2.4 Programming Register
The Programming register is written with a 22-bit word describing the required frequency of
the output. However, it is essential that programming words do not mimic the Control word
Protocol field (see section 6.2.3 above) by containing runs of four consecutive ones. Thus,
