XE1209
Ultra-Low Power 30 – 70 kHz Transceiver
Low Power Near Field Communication Transceiver
The XE1209 is a CMOS Ultra Low-Power transceiver
for short-range low frequency RF data communications
system. It uses 2-level Continuous Phase FSK modulation.
The receiver section includes the preamplifier, the downconverter, and the channel filters, the demodulator and
the bit synchronizer, which delivers synchronized data
at the output. The transmitter section is composed of a
Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS), and the power amplifier
generating a square-wave output current.
The XE1209 has carrier detector to detect the presence
of a signal at the carrier frequency. The local clock
is based on a 32kHz crystal oscillator and a PLL to
generate the required Local Oscillator (LO) frequency.
The XE1209 has a simple interface with an external
microcontroller.
