ADF7012:  Single Chip Low Power UHF Transmitter

Product Description

The ADF7012 is a low power ASK/FSK/GFSK UHF transmitter designed for use in Short Range Devices (SRD’s). The output power, output channels, deviation frequency and modulation type are programmable by using four 32-bit registers. The fractional-N and VCO with external inductor enable the user to select any frequency in the 50MHz to 1GHz band. The fast lock times of the fractional-N PLL make the ADF7012 suitable in fast frequency hopping systems. The fine frequency deviations available and PLL phase noise performance facilitates narrowband operation.

There are five different modulation schemes selectable: Binary or Gaussian On-Off Keying (OOK), Binary or Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) and Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK). The compensation register allows the output to be moved in < 1ppm steps to allow indirect compensation for frequency error in the crystal reference. Control of the registers is via a simple 3-wire interface. In power-down the part has a typical quiescent current of <0.1μA.
