General Description
The MLX71120 is a multi-band, single-channel/dual-channel RF receiver based on a double-conversion
super-heterodyne architecture. It can receive FSK and ASK modulated signals. The IC is designed for general purpose applications for example in the European bands at 433MHz and 868MHz or for similar applications in North America or Asia, e.g. at 315MHz or 915MHz. It is also well-suited for narrow-band applications
according to the ARIB STD-T67 standard in the frequency range 426MHz to 470MHz.
The receiver’s extended temperature and supply voltage ranges make the device a perfect fit for automotive
or similar applications where harsh environmental conditions are expected.

Theory of Operation
1.1
General
The MLX71120 receiver architecture is based on a double-conversion super-heterodyne approach. The two
LO signals are derived from an on-chip integer-N PLL frequency synthesizer. The PLL reference frequency
is derived from a crystal (XTAL). As the first intermediate frequency (IF1) is very high, a reasonably high
degree of image rejection is provided even without using an RF front-end filter. At applications asking for
very high image rejections, cost-efficient RF front-end filtering can be realized by using a SAW filter in front
of the LNA. The second mixer MIX2 is an image-reject mixer.
The receiver signal chain is setup by one (or two) low noise amplifier(s) (LNA1, LNA2), two down-conversion
mixers (MIX1, MIX2) and an external IF filter with an on-chip amplifier (IFA). By choosing the required modulation via an FSK/ASK switch (at pin MODSEL), either the on-chip FSK demodulator (FSK DEMOD) or the
RSSI-based ASK detector is selected. A second order data filter (OA1) and a data slicer (OA2) follow the
demodulator. The data slicer threshold can be generated from the mean-value of the data stream or by
means of the positive and negative peak detectors (PKDET+/-). A digital post-processing of the sliced data
signal can be performed by a noise cancellation filter (NCF) building block.
The dual LNA configuration can be used for antenna space diversity or antenna frequency diversity or to
setup an LNA cascade (to further improve the input sensitivity). The two LNAs can also be setup to feed the
RF signal differentially.
A sequencer circuit (SEQ) controls the timing during start-up. This is to reduce start-up time and to minimize
power dissipation.

The PLL SYNTH consists of a fully integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a distributed feedback
divider chain (N1,N2), a phase-frequency detector (PFD) a charge pump (CP), a loop filter (LF) and a
crystal-based reference oscillator (RO).

Operating Modes
The receiver offers two operating modes selectable by setting the corresponding logic level at pin ENRX.
ENRX
Description
0
Shutdown mode
1
Receive mode
Note: ENRX is pulled down internally.
The receiver’s start-up procedure is controlled by a sequencer circuit. It performs the sequential activation of
the different building blocks. It also initiates the pre-charging of the data filter and data slicer capacitors in
order to reduce the overall start-up time and current consumption during the start-up phase.
At ENRX = 0, the receiver is in shutdown mode and draws only a few nA. The bias system and the reference
oscillator are activated after enabling the receiver by a positive edge at pin ENRX. The crystal oscillator (RO)
is turned on first. Then the crystal oscillation amplitude builds up from noise. After reaching a certain amplitude level at pin ROI, the whole IC is activated and draws the full receive mode current consumption ICC.
This event is used to start the pre-charging of the external data path capacitors. Pre-charging is finished
after 5504 clock cycles. After that time the data output pin DTAO output is activated.

LNA Selection
The receiver features two identical LNAs. Each LNA is a cascode amplifier with a voltage gain of approximately 18dB. The actual gain depends on the antenna matching network at the inputs and the LC tank network between the LNA outputs and mixer input. LNA operation can be controlled by the LNASEL pin.

Pin LNASEL is internally pulled to VCC/2 during receive mode. Therefore both LNAs are active if LNASEL is
left floating (Hi-Z state).

Mixer Section
The mixer section consists of two mixers. Both are double-balanced mixers. The second mixer is built as an
image rejection mixer. The first mixer’s inputs (MIXP and MIXN) are functionally the same. For single-ended
drive, the unused input has to be tied to ground via a capacitor. A soft band-pass filter is placed between the
mixers.
RFSEL
Description

Input frequency range 300 to 470MHz

Input frequency range 610 to 930MHz
Pin RFSEL is used to select the required RF band. The LO frequencies and the proper sidebands for image
suppression will be set accordingly. The mixer output (MIXO) is to drive an external IF filter. This output is
set up by a source follower that can be biased to create a driving impedance of either 1500 Ohms or 330
Ohms, depending on the logic level at pin IFSEL.
IFSEL
Description

IF2 = 455 kHz

IF2 = 10.7 MHz
This feature allows to use standard ceramic filters for 455kHz and 10.7MHz. They can be connected directly
without additional matching elements. The overall voltage conversion gain of the mixer section is approximately 25dB.

After having passed the IF filter, the signal is amplified by a high-gain limiting amplifier. It consists of several
AC-coupled gain stages with a bandwidth of 400kHz to 11MHz. The overall small-signal pass-band gain is
about 80dB. A received-signal-strength indicator (RSSI) signal is generated within the IF amplifier and is
available at pin RSSI.
1.8
PLL Synthesizer
The PLL synthesizer consists of a fully integrated voltage-controlled oscillator running at 400MHz to
640MHz, a distributed feedback divider chain, an edge-triggered phase-frequency detector, a charge pump,
a loop filter and a crystal-based reference oscillator. The PLL is used for generating the LO signals. The LO1
is directly taken from the VCO output, and the LO2 is derived from the LO1 signal passing the N1 counter.
Another counter N2 follows N1. The overall feedback divider ratio Ntot is fixed to 24. The values of N1 and N2
are depending on the selected RF band that can be chosen via pin RFSEL.

Reference Oscillator
A Colpitts crystal oscillator with integrated functional capacitors is used as the reference oscillator (RO) of
the PLL synthesizer. The equivalent input capacitance CRO offered to the crystal at pin ROI is about 18pF.
The crystal oscillator features an amplitude control loop. This is to assure a very stable frequency over the
specified supply voltage and temperature range together with a short start-up time. A buffer amplifier with
hysteresis is between RO and PFD. Also a clock divider follows the buffer.
1.10 Clock Output
The clock output pin CKOUT is an open-drain output. For power saving reasons, the circuit is only active if
an external pull-up resistor RCL is applied to the pin. Furthermore, RCL can be used to adjust the clock
waveform. It forms an RC low-pass together with the capacitive load at the pin, the parasitics of the PCB and
the input capacitance of the external circuitry (e.g. a microcontroller).
The clock output feature is disabled if pin CKOUT is connected to ground or left open.

1.11 FSK Demodulator
The integrated FSK demodulator is based on a phase-coincidence demodulator principle. An injectionlocked oscillator (ILO) is used as a frequency-dependent phase shifter. This topology features a good linearity of the frequency-phase relationship over the entire locking range. The type of demodulator has no built-in
constraints regarding the modulation index. It also offers a wide carrier acceptance range.
In addition, the demodulator provides an AFC loop for correcting the remaining free-running frequency error
and drift effects, and also to remove possible frequency offsets between transmitter and receiver frequencies. The AFC loop features a dead band which means that the AFC loop is only closed if the demodulator
output voltage leaves the linear region of the demodulator. Most of the time, the control loop is open. This
leads to several advantages. The AFC loop bandwidth can be high and therefore the reaction time is short.
Furthermore the demodulator itself has no low-end cut-off frequency.
The FSK demodulator has a negative control slope, this means the output voltage decreases by increasing
the IF2 frequency. This guarantees an overall positive slope because the mixer section converts the receive
frequency to IF2 either with high-low or low-high side injection.
The FSK demodulator is turned off during ASK demodulation.

Pins DF1, DF2, DFO, SLC and DTAO are left floating during shutdown mode. So they are in a high-Z state.

1.13 Data Filter
The data filter is formed by the operational amplifier OA1, two internal 100kΩ resistors and two external capacitors. It is implemented as a 2nd order Sallen-Key filter. The low pass filter characteristic rejects noise at
higher frequencies and therefore leads to an increased sensitivity.

1.14 Data Slicer
The purpose of the data slicer is to convert the filtered data signal into a digital output. It can therefore be
considered as an analog-to-digital converter. This is done by using the operational amplifier OA2 as a comparator that compares the data filter output with a threshold voltage. The threshold voltage can be derived in
two different ways from the data signal.

A long string of zeros or ones, like in NRZ codes, can
cause a drift of the threshold. That’s why a Manchester

The peak detectors are disabled during averaging detection mode, and the output pins PDP and PDN are
pulled to ground (S4, S6 are closed).

Peak Detection Mode
Peak detection mode has a general advantage over
averaging detection mode because of the part attack
and slow release times. Peak detection should be used
for all non DC-free codes like NRZ. In this configuration
the threshold is generated by using the positive and
negative peak detectors. The slicer comparator threshold is set to the midpoint between the high output and
the low output of the data filter by an on-chip resistance
divider. Two external capacitors (CP1, CP2) determine
the release times for the positive and negative envelope. The two on-chip resistors provide a path for the
capacitors to discharge. This allows the peak detectors
to dynamically follow peak changes of the data filter
output voltage. The attack times are very short due to
the high peak detector load currents of about 500uA.
The decay time constant mainly depends on the longest
time period without bit polarity change. This corresponds to the maximum number of consecutive bits with
the same polarity (NMAX).

The simplest configuration is the averaging or RC integration method. Here an on-chip 100kΩ resistor together with an external slicer capacitor (CSL) are forming an RC low-pass filter. This way the threshold voltage
automatically adjusts to the mean or average value of
the analog input voltage.
To create a stable threshold voltage, the cut-off frequency of the low pass has to be lower than the lowest
signal frequency.

If the receiver is in shutdown mode and peak detection mode is selected then the peak detectors are disabled and the output of the positive peak detector (PDP) is connected to VEE (S4 is closed) and the output
of the negative peak detector (PDN) is connected to VCC (S5 is closed). This guarantees the correct biasing
of CP1 and CP2 during start-up

The NCF can also operate as a muting circuit for RF input signals that are below sensitivity level if the bandwidth of the preceding data filter is selected much higher than the bandwidth of the NCF. This would be the
case if no RF signal is present.
In contrast to conventional muting (or squelch) circuits, this topology does not need the RSSI signal for level
indication. The filtering process is done by means of an analogue integrator. The cut-off frequency of the
NCF is set by the external capacitor connected to pin CINT. This capacitor CF3 should be set according to
the maximum data rate. Below table provides some recommendations..
During receiver start-up a sequencer checks if pin CINT is connected to a capacitor or to ground. The maximum value of CF3 should not exceed 12nF. This defines the lowest data rate that can be processed if the
noise cancellation filter is activated.

Frequency Planning
Because of the double conversion architecture that employs two mixers and two IF signals, there are four
different combinations for injecting the LO1 and LO2 signals:
LO1 high side and LO2 high side:
LO1 high side and LO2 low side:
LO1 low side and LO2 high side:
LO1 low side and LO2 low side:
receiving at fRF(high-high)
receiving at fRF(high-low)
receiving at fRF(low-high)
receiving at fRF(low-low)
As a result, four different radio frequencies (RFs) could yield one and the same second IF (IF2). Fig. 9
shows this for the case of receiving at fRF(high-high). In the example of Fig. 9, the image signals at fRF(lowhigh) and fRF(low-low) are suppressed by the bandpass characteristic provided by the RF front-end. The
bandpass shape can be achieved either with a SAW filter (featuring just a couple of MHz bandwidth), or by
the tank circuits at the LNA input and output (this typically yields 30 to 60MHz bandwidth). In any case, the
high value of the first IF (IF1) helps to suppress the image signals at fRF(low-high) and fRF(low-low).
The two remaining signals at IF1 resulting from fRF(high-high) and fRF(high-low) are entering the second
mixer MIX2. This mixer features image rejection with so-called single-sideband (SSB) selection. This means
either the upper or lower sideband of IF1 can be selected. In the example of Fig. 9, LO2 high-side injection
has been chosen to select the IF2 signal resulting from fRF(high-high).

The four receiving frequencies in a double conversion superhet receiver
It can be seen from the block diagram of Fig. 1 that there is a fixed relationship between the LO signal frequencies (fLO1 , fLO2) and the reference oscillator frequency fRO.
f LO1 = N 1 ⋅ f LO2
f LO2 = N 2 ⋅ f RO
The IF2 frequency can be selected to 455kHz or 10.7MHz via the logic level at the IFSEL control pin. At the
same time the output impedance of the 2nd mixer at pin MIXO is set according to the IF2 (please refer to pin
description for details). Of course, also the operating frequency of the FSK demodulator (FSK DEMOD) is
set accordingly.

Calculation of Frequency Settings
The receiver has two predefined receive frequency plans which can be selected by the RFSEL control pin.
Depending on the logic level of RFSEL pin the sideband selection of the second mixer and the counter settings for N1 and N2 are changed accordingly.

433/868MHz Frequency Diversity
The receiver’s multi-band functionality can be used to operate at two different frequency bands just by
changing the logic level at pin RFSEL and without changing the crystal. This feature is applicable for common use of the 433 and 868MHz bands. Below table shows the corresponding frequency plans.
