PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Pin
No.
Mnemonic Function
1 RF
IN(+)
RF Input Plus: Differential RF Plus input to mixer.
2 RF
IN(–)
RF Input Minus: Differential RF Minus input to mixer.
3 OSC
B
LO Oscillator Transistor Base: LO generator (Pins 3 and 4) with internal buffer to drive mixer differentially. Can
also be driven externally.
4 OSC
E
LO Oscillator Transistor Emitter: Pins 3 and 4 are used to form an oscillator with external components (tank,
varactor, etc.).
5 V
CC1
Supply Voltage 1: Voltage supply for mixer and main bias.
6 RSSI/AGC
RSSI Out and AGC Input: Dual use: RSSI output in AMPS mode (no internal opamp) and AGC input in QPSK
mode if needed. If no AGC, input will auto AGC to pre-defined fixed level for IQ outputs, in which case this pin
also serves as RSSI output.
7 PWRDWN Power-Down: Chip power-down input (CMOS compatible).
8 OSC
DEMOD
IF Oscillator Input (LO frequency x4): Oscillator input x4 for I/Q demodulation is needed for internally
generating quad LOs by division.
9 ModeSW Mode Switch: Logic control signal to select between AMPS and QPSK modes of operation.
10 AUDIO/LPF
Audio Out and LPF Corner Frequency Control: Dual Use: Audio output in the AMPS mode and LPF corner
frequency control in QPSK mode.
11 DEMOD1 Demod Auxiliary Pin: Used to implement FM demodulation in AMPS mode.
12 Q Baseband Q Ouptut: Quadrature baseband output referenced to IQ
REF
.
13 I Baseband I Output: In-phase baseband output referenced to IQ
REF
.
14 V
CC2
Supply Voltage 2: Voltage supply for IF amp and demodulator.
15 IQ
REF
I/Q Reference Voltage: Reference voltage for baseband I/Q outputs.
16 GND2 Ground 2: Ground common for IF amp and demodulator.
17 DEMOD2/Offsets
Demod Auxiliary Pin and I/Q Offset Control: Dual Use: In AMPS mode serves for FM demodulator; in QPSK
mode serves as I/Q offset control.
18 IQ DEMOD Input to the Demodulator: IF input to demodulator from AGC IF amp output.
19 GND1 Ground 1: Ground common for mixer and main bias.
20 IFAMP
OUT
IF Amplifier Output: IF amplifier output.
21 V
CCMID
VCC Midpoint Bypass: The internally generated VCC midpoint bias needs to be externally bypassed with a
suitable capacitor.
22 IFAMP
IN
Input to IF Amplifier: Input to IF Amplifier from mixer through external filter .
23 IFAMP
DC
Reference Input to IF Amp: External bypassing for low frequency feedback of IF amp to null DC offsets.
24 MIX
OUT
Output from Mixer: IF output from mixer to external BPF and IF amp.
