Operating at 27 MHz, it integrates multiple components (PLL, RF mixer, simulated SAW filter, tuning circuit, and miscellaneous passive components) to provide frequency selection from 8 discrete channels. This integration lowers component, manufacturing and system costs. USB or PS/2 Power PCB Loop Antenna TPS71533 I2C Control 2 Data Channels 6MHz for uP TRF7900A 12 MHz Crystal MSP430 The TRF7900A simplifies system design by reducing system component count and manual circuit tuning. By integrating the PLL, SAW filter, and RF mixer, the TRF7900A eliminates the manual tuning of RLC circuits required in traditional implementations. Please be aware that an important notice concerning availability, standard warranty, and use in critical applications of Texas Instruments semiconductor products and disclaimers thereto appears at the end of this data sheet. PRODUCTION DATA information is current as of publication date. Products conform to specifications per the terms of the Texas Instruments standard warranty. Production processing does not necessarily include testing of all parameters. Copyright © 2005, Texas Instruments Incorporated TRF7900A www.ti.com SWRS031 – OCTOBER 2005 The receiver also generates 8 frequencies that can be programmatically selected via the I2C interface bus for both the mouse channel and/or the keyboard channel. Another 6-MHz clock is internally generated to clock the USB microcontroller; this enables a single crystal to be used to supply the clock needs for the receiver channels and the microcontroller. The optimized receiver design enables simultaneous reception on both parallel channels up to 5 kHz (10 kbps Miller encoding) per channel. A receive strength signal indicator register can be read via the I2C bus to determine the signal strength. Correlating the RSSI reading to the packet error rate enables the controller to diagnose the signal and understand the user condition.

Stresses above these ratings may cause permanent damage. Exposure to absolute maximum conditions for extended periods may degrade device reliability. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those specified is not implied. The maximum junction temperature for continuous operation is limited by package constraints. Operation above this temperature may result in reduced reliability and/or lifetime of the device.

Power rating is determined with a junction temperature of 125°C. This is the point where distortion starts to substantially increase. Thermal management of the final PCB should strive to keep the junction temperature at or below 125°C for best performance and long term reliability.
