(1) The maximum allowable temperature drift for continuous lock: how far the
temperature can drift in either direction from the previous value, when the
On-Chip VCO is calibrated while the PLL stays in lock throughout the temperature
drift. The internal VCO calibration takes place: at device start-up, when the
device is reset using the RESET pin and when REGISTER bit is changed. This
implies the device works over the entire frequency range, but if the temperature
drifts more than the 'maximum allowable temperature drift for continuous lock',
then re-calibrating the VCO, using the appropriate REGISTER bit, is necessary to
verify that the PLL stays in lock. Regardless of what temperature the part is
initially calibrated at, the temperature can never drift outside the ambient
temperature range of -40°C to 105°C.
