Function
Description
Interface Schematic
28
VCC1
This pin is used to supply DC bias to the LNA, Mixer, 1st IF Amp and
Bandgap reference. A RF bypass capacitor should be connected
directly to this pin and returned to ground. A 22pF capacitor is recom-
mended for 915MHz applications. A 68 pF capacitor is recommended
for 433MHz applications.
29
DATA OUT
Demodulated data output from the demodulator. Output levels on this
are TTL/CMOS compatible. The magnitude of the load impedance is
intended to be 1M
Ω or greater.
30
VCC3
This pin is used to supply DC bias and collector current to the transmit-
ter PA. It also supplies voltage to the 2nd IF Amplifier, Demod and data
slicer. A RF bypass capacitor should be connected directly to this pin
and returned to ground. A 22pF capacitor is recommended for 915MHz
applications. A 68pF capacitor is recommended for 433MHz applica-
tions.
31
LVL ADJ
This pin is used to vary the transmitter output power. An output level
adjustment range greater than 12dB is provided through analog volt-
age control of this pin. DC current of the transmitter power amp ia also
reduced with output power.
NOTE: This pin MUST be low when the transmitter is disabled.
32
RX ENABL
Enable pin for the receiver circuits. RX ENABL>2.0V powers up all
receiver functions. RX ENABL<1.0V turns off all receiver functions
except the PLL functions and the RF mixer.
