\section{General Description}
The 4456 Synthesizer Mirny card is a 4hp EEM module part of the ARTIQ Sinara family.
It adds microwave generation capabilities to carrier cards such as 1124 Kasli and 1125 Kasli-SoC.

It provides 4 channels of PLL frequency synthesis.
Output frequency from 53 MHz to \textgreater 4 GHz are supported.
The range can be expanded up to 13.6 GHz with Almazny mezzanine.
Each channel can be attenuated from 0 to -31.5 dB by a digital attenuator.
RF switches on each channel provides at least 50 dB isolation.

\section{Electrical Specifications}

Specifications of parameters are based on the datasheets of the
PLL IC(ADF5356\footnote{\label{adf5356}https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/ADF5356.pdf}),
clock buffer IC (Si53340-B-GM\footnote{\label{clock_buffer}https://www.skyworksinc.com/-/media/Skyworks/SL/documents/public/data-sheets/si5334x-datasheet.pdf}),
digital attenuator IC (HMC542BLP4E\footnote{\label{attenuator}https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/hmc542b.pdf}).
Test results are from the Krzysztof Belewicz's thesis ``Microwave synthesizer for driving ion traps in quantum computing"\footnote{\label{mirny_thesis}https://m-labs.hk/Krzysztof\_Belewicz\_V1.1.pdf}.

Phase noise performance of Mirny was tested using the ADF4351 evaluation kit\repeatfootnote{mirny_thesis}.
The SPI signal is driven by the evaluation kit, converted into LVDS signal by propagating through the DIO-tester card, finally arriving at the Mirny card.
Mirny is then connected to the RSA5100A spectrum analyzer for measurement.

Noise response spike can be improved by inserting an additional common-mode choke between the power supply and Mirny.
Note that the common-mode choke is not present on the Mirny card.
The following is a comparison between 2 setups at 1 GHz output:
\begin{itemize}
    \item Red: Before any modifications
    \item Blue: Adding a CM choke with an 100 \textmu F capacitor after the CM choke
\end{itemize}

Phase noise at different output frequencies are then measured.

\section{Example ARTIQ code}
The sections below demonstrate simple usage scenarios of the 4456 Synthesizer Mirny card with the ARTIQ control system.
They do not exhaustively demonstrate all the features of the ARTIQ system.
The full documentation for the ARTIQ software and gateware is available at \url{https://m-labs.hk}.

\subsection{1 GHz Sinusoidal Wave}
Generate a 1 GHz sinusoid from RF0 with full scale amplitude, attenuated by 12 dB.
Both the CPLD and the PLL channels should be initialized.

\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=10,lastline=17}{examples/pll.py}

\subsection{ADF5356 Power Control}
Output power can be controlled be configuring the PLL channels individually, in addition to the digital attenuators.
After initialization of the PLL channel (ADF5356), the following line of code can change the output power level.

\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=28,lastline=28}{examples/pll.py}

The parameter corresponds to a specific change of output power according to the following table\repeatfootnote{adf5356}.

\begin{center}
    \captionof{table}{Power changes from ADF5356}
    \begin{tabular}{|c|c|}
    \hline
    Parameter & Power \\ \hline
    0 & -4 dBm \\ \hline
    1 & -1 dBm \\ \hline
    2 & +2 dBm \\ \hline
    3 & +5 dBm \\ \hline
    \end{tabular}
\end{center}

ADF5356 gives +5 dBm by default. The stored parameter in ADF5356 can be read using the folowing line.

\inputcolorboxminted{firstline=29,lastline=29}{examples/pll.py}

\newpage
\subsection{Periodic 100\textmu s pulses}
The output can be toggled on and off periodically using the RF switches.
The following code emits a 100\textmu s pulse in every millisecond.
A microwave signal should be programmed in prior (such as the 1 GHz wave example).
