MC13146 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION General where Cv is the equivalent capacitance of the varactor at the linear mixer with linearity control, divide by 64/65 dual modulus prescaler and LPA. This device is designated for use as the low power transmitter in analog and digital FM systems such as UHF and 800 MHz Special Mobile Radio (SMR), UHF Family Radio Services, PCS and 902 to 928 MHz cordless telephones. It features a mixer linearity control to preset or auto program the mixer dynamic range, an enable function and a wideband mixer output so the IC may be used either as an upconverter or for a direct conversion source. Additional details are covered in the Pin by Pin Description which shows the equivalent internal circuit and external circuit requirements. For higher frequency operation, a series tuned oscillator configuration is recommended. Table 1 contains the S–parameters for the VCO transistor in a common collector configuration. This information is useful for designing a VCO at other operating frequencies or for various other oscillator topologies. The output power (at Mix/Buf Out) can be varied by adjusting the value of R5 as illustrated in Figures 3 and 4. Figure 5 shows the typical operating window for the prescaler. Figure 2. Typical Tuning Performance Current Regulation/Enable The device features temperature compensating, voltage independent current regulators which are controlled by the enable function in which ”high” powers up the IC.

Biasing is done with a temperature/voltage compensated current source in the emitter. A RFC from VCC to the base is recommended. The transistor can be operated in the classic Colpitts, Clapp, or Hartley configuration. The application circuit (Figure 8) depicts a parallel resonant VCO which can cover the entire 902 to 928 MHz frequency band with phase noise of approximately –80 dBc/Hz at a 10 kHz offset (see Figure 2). For this configuration, the LO will be driven with approximately 100 mVrms, and the frequency of oscillation can be approximated by: 925 Fout (Mhz) Mixer: General The mixer is a double–balanced four quadrant multiplier biased class AB allowing for programmable linearity control via an external current source. An input third order intercept point of 20 dBm has been achieved. The mixer has a 50 Ω single–ended RF input and open collector differential outputs. An onboard Local Oscillator transistor has the emitter, base and collector pinned out to implement a low phase noise VCO in various configurations. Additionally, a buffered prescaler output is provided for operation with a low frequency synthesizer. For direct conversion applications the input of the mixer may be terminated to ground through a 120 to 330 Ω resistor. 935 930 1ST MIXER/BUFFER OUTPUT (dBm) ARCHIVED BY FREESCALE SEMICONDUCTOR, INC. 2005 Freescale Semiconductor, Inc...

A shunt resistor of 200 Ω minimum to VCC is recommended for stability. 0 –5.0 The outputs can be used as a single–ended driver or connected in a balanced–to–unbalanced configuration. If the single–ended driver configuration is used, the unused output must be tied directly to VCC. For the balanced–to–unbalanced configuration, an additional 3.0 to 6.0 dB of power gain can be achieved.

A IF signal can be applied to this pin and up–converted to the desired RF frequency. 2. A resistor can be connected to ground, controlling the RF output power. 3. A resistor can be connected to VCC, disabling the entire mixer. Low Power Amplifier (LPA) The LPA is internally biased at low supply current (approximately 2.0 mA emitter current) for optimal low power operation, yielding a 10 dBm 1.0 dB output power compression point. Input and output matching may be achieved at various frequencies using few external components (see Table 3 S–parameters). Typical power gain is 16 dB with the input/output conjugately matched to the source/load impedance. A minimum 200 Ω shunt resistor from the output to VCC is recommended for stability.
