NOTE 1: Characteristics above are NOT valid if VBAT < 3.0V.
NOTE 2: Line regulation is 20dB for f<100kHz when battery voltage is lower than 3.1V.
NOTE 3: The 220nF can be divided into two capacitors; one as close to CCONT as possible, the other
next to the RF parts.
NOTE 4: If the output current is less than 10mA, a 1uF is required to ensure stability.
Functional Description
RF Block Diagram
Refer to |4| which is the RF block diagram in Design Architect format. The related com-
ponent number is referenced to (..), so it is easier to locate that specific component.
As can been seen from the RF block diagram, most of the functions have been integrated
into three ASICs. CRFU_2a (N600) is a wideband UHF ASIC with both receiver and trans-
mitter functions.
The receiver functions include LNA and two downconversion mixers (Gilbert cell) with LO
buffers. The transmitter functions include an upconversion mixer (image rejection) with
LO buffer. All inputs/outputs are wideband and require external matching networks for
