4. VCO
Figure 4.1 shows a configuration example of the VCO tank circuit. VCO oscillator frequency calculated as
follows:

The L in the above equation will be the sum of the inductor L1, the line inductance of the PCB and the internal
inductance of the ML7345. And the C will be the sum of the capacitor C1, the line capacitor of the PCB and the
internal capacitor (including calibration capacitor) of the ML7345. Table 4.1 shows the typical value of internal
capacitor.
