RF2942 0 Typical Applications * 915MHz ISM Band Products * Digital Communications * Quadrature Modulation * Portable Battery-Powered Equipment UHF QUADRATURE MODULATOR AND TRANSMITTER Product Description -A- 2 PLCS 0.25 C A The RF2942 is an integrated power amplifier and quadrature modulator IC. The quadrature modulator is driven with a single-ended local oscillator (LO) source. The quadrature phase generation of the LO is accomplished using an internal passive network tuned for twice the operating frequency. The LO frequency is at twice the RF frequency to avoid interfering with an external synthesizer. 4.00 SQ. 2.00 TYP 0.25 C B 2 PLCS 1.00 0.85 0.80 0.65 0.05 C 0.05 0.01 Dimensions in mm. 12 MAX 0.20 C B 2 PLCS -B- 1.88 TYP 3.75 SQ. -C- SEATING PLANE 2 PLCS 0.20 C A 0.10 M C A B Shaded lead is pin 1. 0.60 0.24 TYP 0.35 0.23 0.65 0.30 4 PLCS 1.85 SQ. 1.55 0.23 0.13 4 PLCS 0.65 0.75 0.50 Optimum Technology Matching(R) Applied Si BJT Si Bi-CMOS InGaP/HBT GaAs HBT SiGe HBT GaN HEMT GaAs MESFET Si CMOS SiGe Bi-CMOS Package Style: QFN, 16-Pin, 4x4 Features * 2.0V to 3.6V Power Supply * 902MHz to 928MHz Frequency Range I DATA+ I DATA- TX EN * 200mW Output Power * Low LO Input Level * Low Broadband Noise Floor * Small Footprint 4 3 12 LO IN+ 14 LO2 OUT 15 /2 +45 -45 9 RF OUT 2 Q DATA+ 1 Q DATA- Ordering Information RF2942 RF2942 PCBA UHF Quadrature Modulator and Transmitter Fully Assembled Evaluation Board Functional Block Diagram RF Micro Devices, Inc. 7628 Thorndike Road Greensboro, NC 27409, USA Tel (336) 664 1233 Fax (336) 664 0454 http://www.rfmd.com Rev A4 040115 11-195 RF2942 Absolute Maximum Ratings Parameter Supply Voltage Power Down Voltage (VPD) Input LO and RF Levels Operating Ambient Temperature Storage Temperature Rating -0.5 to +3.6 VCC +0.4 +6 -40 to +85 -40 to +150 Unit VDC VDC dBm C C Caution!

Carrier suppression is then typically better than 40dB. Broadband Noise Floor -90 dBm/Hz 11-196 Rev A4 040115 RF2942 Pin 1 Function QSIGDescription Reference voltage for the I and Q mixer. This voltage should be the same as the DC voltage supplied to the I and Q SIG pin. To obtain a carrier suppression of better than 40dB it may be tuned 0.15V (relative to the I and Q SIG DC voltage). Without tuning, the carrier suppression will typically be better than 25dB. The input impedance of this pin is typically >10 k. Interface Schematic DATA+ DATA BIAS 2 3 4 QSIG+ ISIGISIG+ Same as pin 1, except complementary input. Same as pin 4, except complementary input. This pin is used to supply Vcc to the modulator circuits. A RF bypass capacitor should be connected directly to this and ground. Baseband input to the I mixer. A DC bias of approximately 1.2V is present at this pin.A DC blocking capacitor is needed if the signal has a different DC level. Maximum output power is obtained when the input signal has a peak to peak amplitude of 1V. The input impedance of this pin is about 3 k. The SIG- and SIG+ inputs are interchangeable. If swapping the I SIG+ and I SIG- pins, the Q SIG+ and Q SIG- also need to be swapped to maintain the correct phase. The SIG+ and SIG- pins may be driven differentially for BPSK to increase conversion gain. No connection. See pin 1. See pin 1.

The local oscillator signal is buffered then split with internal phase shifters that are optimized for twice the operating frequency. The LO buffer provides isolation from load changes that may occur as the power amplifier section is turned on and off. In addition, the LO buffer may be left on when the transmit section is turned off to prevent load pulling of the external oscillator, by holding TX EN low and leaving the bias on VCC1. The baseband I and Q pins are connected to the internal mixer bias, therefore it is recommended that the modulation signal be DC-blocked if a similar external reference voltage cannot be provided. The baseband drive may be either single-ended with the complementary input AC-grounded with a capacitor or driven differentially. Power Amplifier The power amplifier requires matching on the output (RF OUT) and the interstage transistor (PA VCC).
