description
The TRF6901 single-chip solution is an integrated circuit intended for use as a low cost FSK or OOK transceiver
to establish a frequency-programmable, half-duplex, bidirectional RF link. The multichannel transceiver is
intended for digital (FSK, OOK) modulated applications in the new 868-MHz European band and the North
American 915-MHz ISM band. The single-chip transceiver operates down to 1.8 V and is designed for low power
consumption. The synthesizer has a typical channel spacing of better than 200 kHz and uses a fully-integrated
VCO. Only the PLL loop filter is external to the device.
Two fully-programmable operation modes, Mode0 and Mode1, allow extremely fast switching between two
preprogrammed settings (for example, receive (RX)/transmit (TX); TX_frequency_0/TX_frequency_1;
RX_frequency_0/RX_frequency_1; …) without reprogramming the device.
ISM band standards
Europe has assigned an unlicensed frequency band of 868 MHz to 870 MHz. This band is specifically defined
for short range devices with duty cycles from 0.1% to 100% in several subbands. The existing 433-MHz band
for short-range devices in Europe has the great disadvantage of high usage. The new European frequency
band, due to the duty cycle assignment, allows a reliable RF link and makes many new applications possible.
The North American unlicensed ISM band covers 902 MHz to 928 MHz (center frequency of 915 MHz) and is
suitable for short range RF links.
transmitter
The transmitter consists of an integrated VCO and tank circuit, a complete integer-N synthesizer, and a power
amplifier. The divider, prescaler, and reference oscillator require only the addition of an external crystal and a
loop filter to provide a complete PLL with a typical frequency resolution of better than 200 kHz.
Since the typical RF output power is approximately 9 dBm, no additional external RF power amplifier is
necessary in most applications.
receiver
The integrated receiver is intended to be used as a single-conversion FSK/OOK receiver. It consists of a low
noise amplifier, mixer, limiter, FM/FSK demodulator with an external LC tank circuit or ceramic resonator, a LPF
amplifier, and a data slicer. The received strength signal indicator (RSSI) can be used for fast carrier sense
detection or as an on/off keying, or amplitude shift keying, (OOK/ASK) demodulator.
baseband interface
The TRF6901 can easily be interfaced to a baseband processor such as the Texas Instruments MSP430
ultralow-power microcontroller (see Figure 1). The TRF6901 serial control registers are programmed by the
MSP430 and the MSP430 performs baseband operations in the software.

detailed description
low-noise amplifier (LNA)/RF mixer
The LNA has differential inputs. The off-chip input matching network has the dual task of matching a 50-Ω
connector (or antenna, switch, filter, etc.) to the differential inputs and providing a 180-degree phase shift
between the inputs at terminals 1 and 2. The differential input impedance of the LNA is approximately 500 Ω
in parallel with 0.7 pF. The predicted noise figure of the LNA and input matching circuit is 2.5 dB. The cascaded
noise figure for the LNA/mixer is listed in the specifications.
The mixer offers good linearity (high IP3). An external matching network is required to transform the output
impedance of the mixer (1.4 kΩ) to the input impedance of the IF filter (typically 330 Ω).

IF amplifier/limiter
The IF amplifier has differential inputs to its first stage. The limiting amplifier provides 68 dB of gain. An external
impedance matching network is required between the IF filter output and the IF amplifier inputs at terminals 43
and 44.
RSSI
The received signal strength indicator (RSSI) voltage at terminal 41 is proportional to the log of the
down-converted RF signal at the IF limiting amplifier input. The RSSI circuit is temperature compensated and
is useful for detecting interfering signals, transceiver handshaking, and RF channel selection. In some
applications it can be used as a demodulator for amplitude-shift\keying (ASK) or on-off keying (OOK)
modulation.

demodulator
The quadrature demodulator decodes digital frequency shift keying (FSK) modulation. An external ceramic
discriminator or an equivalent discrete circuit is required at terminal 35. The demodulator is optimized for use
with a ceramic discriminator. Thus, the use of a packaged ceramic discriminator is recommended for the best
performance. Internal resistors can be programmed with D<14:12> to tune the demodulator center frequency.
The recommended default setting for the demodulator tuning bits is D<14:12> = 110. The resonant frequency
of the discrete-component discriminator can be calculated from the inductor and capacitor values used in the
circuit. A parallel resistor may be added to reduce the quality factor (Q) of the tank circuit, depending on the
application.

post-detection amplifier/low-pass filter
The post-detection amplifier operates as a low-pass transimpedance amplifier. The external low-pass filter
circuit must be optimized for the data rate. The 3-dB corner frequency of the low-pass filter should be greater
than twice the data rate. Various low-pass filter designs use two to five components and may be first- or
second-order designs. Simple 2-element filter component values and 3-dB bandwidths are contained in Table 1.

data slicer
The data slicer is a comparator circuit for received digital (FSK) data. The data slicer output voltage depends
on the difference between the received signal and a reference voltage (at the sample-and-hold (S&H) capacitor)
used as a decision threshold. During the learn mode, the S&H capacitor connected to terminal 34 is charged
up to the average dc voltage of a training sequence of alternating ones and zeroes; this establishes the
reference voltage to be used as a decision level before a sequence of actual data is received in the hold mode.
During long data transmissions, more training sequences may be necessary to recharge the S&H capacitor.
If the modulation scheme is dc-free (Manchester coding) or constant-dc, the TRF6901 may be operated
continuously in the learn mode, and no training sequence is necessary before the transmission of a data string.
However, the S&H capacitor voltage may be incorrect during power up or after long periods of inactivity (no data
transmission); a learning sequence before each data transmission is recommended.
The comparator is a CMOS circuit that does not load the S&H capacitor, so leaving the transmission gate
(learn/hold switch) open during periods of inactivity may be useful in maintaining the capacitor reference
voltage; however, it gradually discharges due to leakage current.
The time constant for charging the S&H capacitor is determined by its capacitance and an internal 50-kΩ
resistor. A slow data rate requires a larger S&H capacitor (longer time constant). The value of the S&H capacitor,
Csh, can be calculated with the following equation:

main divider
The main divider is composed of a 5-bit A-counter, a 9-bit B-counter, and a prescaler. The A-counter controls
the divider ratio of the prescaler, which divides the VCO signal by either 33 or 32. The prescaler divides by 33
until the A-counter reaches its terminal count and then divides by 32 until the B-counter reaches terminal count,
whereupon both counters reset and the cycle repeats. The total divide-by-N operation is related to the 32/33
prescaler by:
NTOTAL = 33 x A + 32 x (B – A)
where 0 ≤ A ≤ 31 and 31 ≤ B ≤ 511 or, NTOTAL = A + 32B
Thus, the N-divider has a range of 992 ≤ NTOTAL ≤ 16383.

PLL
The phase-locked loop is the radio frequency synthesizer for the TRF6901. It is used to generate the transmit
signal and as the local oscillator for the receive mixer. The signal (FX) from a reference crystal oscillator (XO)
is divided by an integer factor R down to FR. The minimum frequency resolution, and thus, the minimum channel
spacing, is FR.
FR = FX ÷ R, where 1 ≤ R ≤ 256
The phase-locked loop is an integer-N design. The voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) signal is divided by an
integer factor N to get a frequency at the phase detector input.
FPD = FVCO ÷ N, where FVCO = FOUT
The phase detector compares the divided VCO signal to the divided crystal frequency and implements an error
signal from two charge pumps. The error signal corrects the VCO output to the desired frequency.

With FR = FPD under locked conditions, FOUT = X = (A + 32B) FR.
R
As is in any integer-N PLLs, the VCO output has spurs at integer multiples of the reference frequency (nFR).
In applications requiring contiguous frequency channels, the reference frequency is often chosen to be equal
to the channel spacing, thus, channel spacing = FR = FX ÷ R.
oscillator circuit and reference divider
The reference divider reduces the frequency of the external crystal (FX) by an 8-bit programmable integer divisor
to an internal reference frequency (FR) used for the phase-locked loop. The choice of internal reference
frequency also has implications for lock time, maximum data rate, noise floor, and loop-filter design. The crystal
frequency can be tuned using the D word to control internal trimming capacitors, which are placed in parallel
with the crystal. These offset a small frequency error in the crystal. In an FSK application, an additional capacitor
is placed in parallel (through terminal 31) with the external capacitor that is connected in series with the crystal,
thus, changing the load capacitance as the transmit data switch (TX_DATA, terminal 32) is toggled. The change
in load capacitance pulls the crystal off-frequency by the total frequency deviation.
Hence, the 2-FSK frequency set by the level of TX_DATA and the external capacitor, can be represented as
follows:
ƒ out1 + TX_DATA Low
ƒ out2 + TX_DATA High
Note that the frequencies ƒout1 and ƒout2 are centered about the frequency ƒcenter = (ƒout1 + ƒout2)/2. When
transmitting FSK, ƒcenter is considered to be the effective carrier frequency and any receiver local oscillator (LO)
should be set to the same ƒcenter frequency ± the receiver’s IF frequency (ƒIF) for proper reception and
demodulation.
For the case of high-side injection, the receiver LO would be set to ƒLO = ƒcenter + ƒIF. Using high-side injection,
the received data at terminal 33, RX_DATA, would be inverted from the transmitted data applied at terminal 32,
TX_DATA. Conversely, for low-side injection, the receiver LO would be set to ƒLO = ƒcenter − ƒIF. Using low-side
injection, the received data would be the same as the transmitted data.
In addition, when the TRF6901 is placed in receive mode, it is recommended that the TX_DATA terminal be kept
low. In this manner, the actual LO frequency injected into the mixer is ƒout1 = ƒLO. If TX_DATA is set high, the
the receiver LO would be offset, resulting in poor receiver sensitivity.

phase detector and charge pumps
The phase detector is a phase-frequency design. The phase-frequency detector gain is given by:
KP = I(CP)/2π
where, I(CP) is the peak charge pump current. The peak charge pump current is programmable with A<3:2> in
three steps: 250 µA, 500 µA, and 1000 µA.
loop filter
The loop filter must be carefully chosen for proper operation of the TRF6901. The loop filter is typically a secondor third-order passive design and in FSK operation should have a bandwidth wide enough to allow the PLL to
relock quickly as the external crystal frequency is pulled off-center during modulation. The loop filter should also
be wider than the data modulation rate. These requirements should be balanced with making the loop narrow
enough in consideration of the reference frequency. In OOK the VCO frequency is not changed during data
modulation, so the filter bandwidth may be narrower than the modulation bandwidth. Filters can be calculated
using standard formulas in reference literature. Some third-order filter examples are shown in Table 2.

VCO
The voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) produces an RF output signal with a frequency that is dependant upon
the dc-tuning voltage at terminal 13. The tank circuit is passive and has integrated varactor diodes and
inductors. The VCO has an open-loop operating band from approximately 700 MHz to 1 GHz. The open-loop
VCO gain is approximately 100 MHz/V.
power amplifier
The power amplifier has four programmable output states: full power, 10-dB attenuation, 20-dB attenuation, and
off (receive mode). The output s-parameters of the amplifier may change slightly as the bias point is changed.
During receive, the transmit power amplifier is powered down but the VCO is still operating. During ASK or OOK
operation, the TX_DATA signal turns the power amplifier on and off according to the transmit data incident at
terminal 32.

detailed description (continued)
dc-dc converter
The dc-dc converter provides an adequate voltage to the charge pumps and VCO core in the event the power
supply voltage drops down to 1.8 V. The switching frequency is adjustable through a clock divider that reduces
the external clock frequency by a C-word programmable factor (L) of 2 to 254 in steps of 2. The dc-dc converter
is designed to operate at a switching frequency of around 1 MHz, so a suggested divider ratio to use with a
20-MHz crystal frequency is 16 or 32 (C<6:0>). The power supply to terminals 10 and 16 may be from Vcc
(regulated supply or battery) or from the dc converter output at terminal 22, but not both. Operation at a reduced
supply voltage is possible without the dc-dc converter if there is adequate VCO tuning voltage overhead at the
highest and lowest frequencies of operation. The dc-dc converter makes operation at low supply voltages
(around 1.8 V) possible, where there would otherwise be insufficient overhead to operate the VCO core and
charge pumps.
brownout detector
The brownout detector provides an output voltage to indicate a low supply voltage. This may be used to signal
the need to change transmit power to conserve battery life, or for system power down. The brownout detector
threshold is set with the B word. Four different thresholds are available. During operation, the brownout detector
is always enabled. During stand-by, the brownout detector is disabled.
clock-output buffer
The clock-output buffer is provided to use the TRF6901 crystal oscillator to drive an external microcontroller
(MCU) or other baseband device, eliminating the need for a second clock circuit. A divider reduces the external
crystal frequency by a C-word programmable integer factor (K) of 2 to 62 in steps of 2. It is recommended that
the clock output buffer divider (C<12:8>) be a power of two, i.e., 2, 4, 8, 16, etc. A buffer amplifier provides
adequate drive for an external MCU, FPGA, or DSP. When the transmit section of the TRF6901 is operated in
FSK, the crystal frequency, internal reference frequency, and the output buffer frequency are modulated by the
total frequency deviation as the transmit data switch is toggled. The resulting MCU clock jitter should be
acceptable for baseband applications. It is possible to run the TRF6901 from an external clock oscillator circuit
by an overdriving signal at terminal 30; however, in FSK the external clock circuit must be modulated. When
the TRF6901 is in standby, the clock buffer output at terminal 27 is turned off.
serial control interface
The TRF6901 is controlled through a serial interface; there are four 24-bit control words (A, B, C, D) which set
the device state. The A and B words are almost identical and provide configuration settings for two modes,
designated 0 and 1, which are commonly used to configure the transmit and receive states. The transmit and
receive states can then be rapidly selected using MODE (terminal 21). The C word sets the various clock
dividers. The D word is used to trim the external crystal frequency and tune the demodulator.
