1.2 Integrated Radio Transceiver

This Mini card module includes an integrated RF transceiver that has been
optimized for use in 2.4-GHz WLAN systems. It has been designed to
provide low-power, low-cost, and robust communications for applications
operating in the globa lly available 2.4-GHz unlicensed ISM band. With
an external transmit power amplifier, it develops full output power per
the IEEE802.11b/g Specification.

1.3 Receiver Path

This Mini card module has a wide dynamic range, direct conversion receiver.
It employs high-order on-chip channel filtering to ensure reliable operation
in the noisy 2.4-GHz ISM band. The excellent noise figure of the receiver
makes an external LNA unnecessary.

1.4 Transmitter Path

This Mini card module includes a linear transmitter capable of delivering up
to +15 dBm while meeting the IEEE802.11g specification. The output power
is adjustable in 1-dB steps, down to 0 dBm. Base-band data is
up-converted directly to the 2.4-GHz ISM band.

1.5 Calibration

This Mini card module enables the device to be used in high-volume
applications because calibration routines are not required during
manufacturing test. These calibration routines are performed periodically
in the course of normal radio operation.
