IF LO input. Must have DC-blocking cap. The capacitor value should be appropriate for the IF frequency. LO frequency=2xIF. Quad mod/demod phase accuracy requires low harmonic content from IF LO, so it is recommended to use an n=3 LPF between the IF VCO and IF LO. This is a high impedance input and the recommended matching approach is to simply add a 100 shunt resistor at this input to constrain the mismatch.

Theory of Operation
RECEIVER RX IF AGC/Mixer Being essentially high impedance, RX IF IN responds to the input voltage (rather than power), and amplifies that voltage by the gain specified in the datasheet, then presents the output voltage at a high impedance (after downconversion). For characterization purposes, a 50 shunt resistor is placed on the IF signal path, before AC-coupling to the input. A 50 signal source is applied directly across the shunt resistor, through a coaxial test lead. The signal source sees the shunt resistor and therefore a low SWR. Voltage gain is then simply the ratio of the output voltage to the input voltage. The front end of the IF AGC starts with a single-ended input and a constant gain amp of 15dB. This first amp stage sets the noise figure and input impedance of the IF section, and its output is taken differentially. The rest of the signal path is differential until the final baseband output, which is converted back to single-ended. Following the front end amp are multiple stages of variable gain differential amplifiers, giving the IF signal path a gain range of 4.0dB to 70.0dB. The noise figure (in max gain mode) of the IF amplifiers is 5dB, which should not degrade the system noise figure. The IF to BB mixers are double-balanced, differential in, differential out, mixers with negligible conversion gain. The LO for each of these mixers is shifted 90 so that the I and Q signals are separated in the mixers. RX Baseband Amps, Filters, and DC Feedback At baseband frequency, there are fully integrated gm-C low pass filters to further filter out-of-band signals and spurs that get through the SAW filter, anti-alias the signal prior to the A/D converter, and to band-limit the signal and noise to achieve optimal signal-to-noise ratio. The 3dB cut-off frequency of these low pass filters is programmable with a single external resistor, and continuously variable from 1MHz to 35MHz. A five-pole Bessel type filter response was chosen because it is optimal for data systems due to its flat delay response and clean step response. Butterworth and Chebychev type filters ring when given a step input making them less ideal for data systems. The filter outputs drive the linear 700mVPP signal off-chip. DC feedback is built into the baseband amplifier section to correct for input offsets. Large DC offsets can arise when a mixer LO leaks to the mixer input and then mixes with itself. DC offsets can also result from random transistor mismatches. A large external capacitor is needed for the DC feedback to set the high pass cutoff. LO INPUT BUFFERS RF LO Buffer The RF LO input has a limiting amplifier before the mixer on both the RF2494 (RX) and RF2948B (TX). This limiting amplifier design and layout is identical on both ICs, which will make the input impedance the same as well. Having this amplifier between the VCO and mixer minimizes any reverse effect the mixer has on the VCO, expands the range of acceptable LO input levels, and holds the LO input impedance constant when switching between RX and TX. The LO input power range is -18dBm to +5dBm, which should make it easy to interface to any VCO and frequency synthesizer. IF LO Buffer The IF LO input has a limiting amplifier before the phase splitting network to amplify the signal and help isolate the VCO from the IC. Also, the LO input signal must be twice the desired intermediate frequency. This simplifies the quadrature network and helps reduce the LO leakage onto the RX_IF input pin (since the LO input is now at a different frequency than the IF). The amplitude of this input needs to be between -15dBm and 0dBm. Excessive IF LO harmonic content affects phase balance of the modulator and demodulator so it is recommended that IF LO harmonics be kept below -30dBc.

RF2948B
TRANSMITTER TX LPF and Mixers The transmit section starts with a pair of 5-pole Bessel filters identical to the filters in the receive section and with the same 3dB frequency. These filters pre-shape and band-limit the digital or analog input signals prior to the first upconversion to IF. These filters have a high input impedance and expect an input signal of 100mVPP typical. Following these low pass filters are the I/Q quadrature upconverter mixers. Each of these mixers is half the size and half the current of the RF to IF downconverter on the RF2494. Recall that this upconverted signal may drive the same SAW filter (in half-duplex mode) as the RF2494 and therefore share the same load. Having the sum of the two BB to IF mixers equal in size and DC current to the RF to IF mixer, will minimize the time required to switch between RX and TX, and will facilitate the best impedance match to the filter. TX VGA Being essentially high impedance, TX IF IN responds to the input voltage (rather than power), and amplifies that voltage by the gain specified in the datasheet, then presents the output voltage at a 50 impedance (after upconversion). For characterization purposes, a 50 shunt resistor is placed on the IF signal path, before AC-coupling to the input. A 50 signal source is applied directly across the shunt resistor, through a coaxial test lead. The signal source sees the shunt resistor and therefore a low SWR. Voltage gain is then the same as power gain, simply the difference in dB between the output power and the input power. The AGC after the SAW filter starts with a switch and a constant gain amplifier of 15dB, which is identical to the circuitry on the receive IF AGC. This was done so that the input impedance will remain constant for different gain control voltages. Following this 15dB gain amplifier is a single stage of gain control offering 15dB gain range. The main purpose of adding this variable gain is to give the system the flexibility to use different SAW filters and image filters with different insertion loss values. This gain could also be adjusted real time, if desired. TX Upconverter The IF to RF upconverter is a double-balanced differential mixer with a differential to single-ended converter on the output to supply 0dBm peak linear power to the image filter. The upconverted SSB signal should have -6dBm power at this point, and the image will have the same power, but due to the correlated nature of the signal and image, the output must support 0dBm of linear power to maintain linearly. +6dBm PA Driver The SSB output of the upconverter is -6dBm of linear power. The image filter should have at most 4dB of insertion loss while removing the image, LO, 2LO and any other spurs. The filter output should supply the PA driver input -10dBm of power. The PA driver is a one-stage class A amplifier with 10dB gain and capable of delivering 6dBm of linear power to a 50 load, and has a 1dB compression point of 12dBm. For lower power applications, this PA driver can be used to drive a 50 antenna directly.
