MICRF230 400MHz to 450MHz ASK/OOK Receiver with RSSI and Squelch General Description Features The MICRF230 is a 400MHz to 450MHz superheterodyne, image-reject, RF receiver with automatic gain control, ASK/OOK demodulator, analog RSSI output, and integrated squelch features. It only requires a crystal and a minimum number of external components to implement. The MICRF230 is ideal for low-cost, low-power, RKE, TPMS, and remote actuation applications. • • • • • • • • • • • The MICRF230 achieves −112dBm sensitivity at a bit rate of 1kbps with 1% BER. Four demodulator filter bandwidths are selectable using SEL0 and SEL1 from 1625Hz to 13kHz at 433.92MHz, allowing the device to support bit rates up to 20kbps. The device operates from a supply voltage of 3.5V to 5.5V and typically consumes 6.0mA at 433.92MHz. The MICRF230 has a shutdown mode that reduces current to 0.5µA. The squelch feature decreases the activity on the data output pin until valid bits are detected while maintaining overall receiver sensitivity.

MICRF230 Functional Diagram Figure 1. MICRF230 Simplified Functional Block Diagram April 15, 2015 9 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MICRF230 Therefore, the reference frequency fREF needed for a given desired RF frequency (fRF) is approximated in Equation 3: Functional Description The simplified block diagram (Figure 1) illustrates the basic structure of the MICRF230 receiver. It is made up of four sub-blocks: • UHF down-converter • ASK/OOK demodulator • Reference and control logic fREF = fRF / (32 + 87 ) 1000 Eq. 3 Outside the device, the MICRF230 receiver requires just a few components to operate: a capacitor from AGC to GND, a capacitor from CTH to GND, a reference crystal resonator with associated loading capacitors, LNA input matching components, and a power-supply decoupling capacitor. Receiver Operation UHF Downconverter The UHF down-converter has six sub-blocks: LNA, mixers, synthesizer, image reject filter, band pass filter and IF amplifier. Figure 2. Low-Side Injection Local Oscillator Image-Reject Filter and Band-Pass Filter The IF ports of the mixer produce quadrature-down converted IF signals. These IF signals are low-pass filtered to remove higher frequency products prior to the image reject filter where they are combined to reject the image frequency. The IF signal then passes through a third order band pass filter. The IF bandwidth is 330kHz @ 433.92MHz, and will scale with RF operating frequency according to Equation 4: LNA The RF input signal is AC-coupled into the gate of the LNA input device. The LNA configuration is a cascaded common-source NMOS amplifier. The amplified RF signal is then fed to the RF ports of two double balanced mixers. Mixers and Synthesizer The LO ports of the mixers are driven by quadrature local oscillator outputs from the synthesizer block. The local oscillator signal from the synthesizer is placed on the low side of the desired RF signal (Figure 2). The product of the incoming RF signal and local oscillator signal will yield the IF frequency, which will be demodulated by the detector of the device. The image reject mixer suppresses the image frequency which is below the wanted signal by 2x the IF frequency. The local oscillator frequency (fLO) is set to 32x the crystal reference frequency (fREF) via a phase-locked loop synthesizer with a fully-integrated loop filter (Equation 1): fLO = 32 × fREF BWIF = BWIF@433.92 MHz ×  Operating Frequency (MHz)   433.92  Eq. 4 These filters are fully integrated inside the MICRF230. After filtering, four active gain controlled amplifier stages enhance the IF signal to its proper level for demodulation. Eq. 1 MICRF230 uses an IF frequency scheme that scales the IF frequency (fIF) with fREF according to Equation 2: fIF = fREF × April 15, 2015 87 1000 Eq. 2 10 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MICRF230 ASK/OOK Demodulator The demodulator section is comprised of detector, programmable low pass filter, slicer, and AGC comparator. Slicer and CTH The signal before the slicer, labeled “Audio Signal” in Figure 1, is still a baseband analog signal. The data slicer converts the analog signal into ones and zeros based on 50% of the slicing threshold voltage built up in the CTH capacitor. After the slicer, the signal is demodulated OOK digital data. When there is only thermal noise at ANT pin, the voltage level on CTH pin is about 650mV. This voltage starts to drop when there is RF signal present. When the RF signal level is greater than −100dBm, the voltage is about 400mV. Detector and Programmable Low-Pass Filter The demodulation starts with the detector removing the carrier from the IF signal. Post detection, the signal becomes baseband information. The low-pass filter further enhances the baseband signal. There are four selectable low-pass filter BW settings: 1625Hz, 3250Hz, 6500Hz and 13000Hz for 433.92MHz operation. The low-pass filter BW is directly proportional to the crystal reference frequency, and RF Operating Frequency. Filter BW values can be easily calculated by direct scaling. Equation 5 illustrates filter Demod BW calculation: BWOperating Freq = BW@433.92MHz × The capacitor value from the CTH pin to GND is not critical to the sensitivity of MICRF230. However, it should be large enough to provide a stable slicing level for the comparator. The0.1μF value used in the evaluation board is good for all bit rates from 500bps to 20kbps. CTH Hold Mode If the internal demodulated signal (DO in Figure 1) is at logic LOW for more than approximately 4ms, the chip automatically enters CTH hold mode, which holds the voltage on CTH pin constant even without a RF input signal. This is useful in a transmission gap, or “dead time”, used in many encoding schemes. When the signal reappears, CTH voltage does not need to resettle. This improves the time to output with no pulse width distortion, or time to good data (TTGD).  Operating Freqruency (MHz)    433.92   Eq. 5 It is very important to select a suitable low-pass filter BW setting for the required data rate to minimize bit error rate. Use the sensitivity curves that show BER vs. bit rates for different SEL0:SEL1 settings as a guide. This low-pass filter with −3dB corner frequency bandwidth can be configured by setting the registers as in Table 1 for 433.92MHz. AGC Loop The AGC comparator monitors the signal amplitude from the output of the programmable low-pass filter. The AGC loop in the chip regulates the signal from the output point to be at a constant level when the input RF signal is within the AGC loop dynamic range (about −115dBm to −40dBm). Table 1. Low-Pass Filter Bandwidth Selection @ 434MHz RF Input Maximum SEL1 SEL0 Low-Pass Filter BW Encoded Bit Rate 0 0 1625Hz 2.5KBps 0 1 3250Hz 5KBps 1 0 6500Hz 10KBps 1 1 13000Hz 20KBps When the chip first turns on, the fast charge feature charges the AGC node up with 120µA typical current. When the voltage on AGC increases, the gains of the mixer and IF amplifier go up, increasing the amplitude of the audio signal (as labeled in Figure 1), even with only thermal noise at the LNA input. The fast-charge current is disabled when the audio signal crosses the slicing threshold, causing DO’ to go high, for the first time. Bit rate refers to the encoded bit rate. Encoded bit rate is 1/(shortest pulse duration) that appears at DO: When an RF signal is applied, a fast-attack period ensues when 600µA current discharges the AGC node to reduce the gain to a proper level. Once the loop reaches equilibrium, the fast attack current is disabled, leaving only 15µA to discharge AGC or 1.5µA to charge AGC. The fast attack current is enabled only when the RF signal increases faster than the ability of the AGC loop to track it. Figure 3. Transmitted Bit Rate through the air April 15, 2015 The ability of the chip to track to a signal that decreased in strength becomes much slower, since only 1.5μA is available to charge the AGC to increase the gain. When designing a transmitter that communicates with the 11 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MICRF230 MICRF230, ensure that the power level remains constant throughout the transmit burst. to be slow. As a result, TTGD is about 9.1ms. It is recommended that Tantalum caps or high voltage ceramic caps are used for AGC to minimize capacitor leakage current which may affect the performance of the AGC. The value of AGC impacts the period between the TTGD, which is defined as the time when signal is first applied, to the pulse width at DO, within 10% of the steady state value. The optimal value of AGC depends on the setting of the D4 and D3 bits. A smaller AGC value does not always result in a shorter TTGD. This is due to the loop dynamics, the fast discharge current being 600µA, and the charge current being only 1.5µA. For example, if SEL0 = SEL1 = 0, the low pass filter bandwidth is set to a minimum and the AGC capacitance is too small. The TTGD will be longer than if AGC capacitance is properly chosen. This is because when the RF signal first appears, the fast discharge period will reduce VAGC very fast, lowering the gain of the mixer and IF amplifier. Since the low pass filter bandwidth is low, it takes too long for the AGC comparator to see a reduced level of the audio signal, and cannot stop the discharge current. This causes an undershoot in AGC voltage and a corresponding overshoot in RSSI voltage. Once the AGC undershoots, it takes a long time for it to charge back up because the current available is only 1.5µA. Figure 4. RSSI Overshoot and Slow TTGD (9.1ms) Table 2 lists the recommended minimum AGC values for different SEL0 and SEL1 settings to insure that the voltage on AGC does not undershoot. Figure 5 shows the behavior with a larger capacitor on AGC pin (2.2μF), SEL0:SEL1 = 10. In this case, VAGC does not undershoot (RSSI does not overshoot), and TTGD is relatively short at 1ms. Table 2. Minimum Suggested AGC Values SEL0 SEL1 AGC value 0 0 4.7μF 0 1 2.2μF 1 0 1μF 1 1 1μF Figure 4 illustrates what occurs if AGC is too small for a given bandwidth setting. In this instance, SEL0 = 1, SEL1 = 0, AGC = 0.47μF, and the RF input level is stepped from no signal to −100dBm. RSSI voltage is shown in place of AGC voltage because RSSI is a buffered version of AGC with an inversion and amplification. Probing AGC directly can affect the loop dynamics through resistive loading from a scope probe, especially in the state where only 1.5μA is available, whereas probing RSSI does not. When the RF signal is first applied, RSSI voltage overshoots due to the fast discharge current on AGC, and the loop is too slow to stop this fast discharge current in time. Since the voltage on AGC is too low, the audio signal level is lower than the slicing threshold (voltage on CTH), and DO pin is low. Once the fast discharge current stops, only the small 1.5µA charge current is available in settling the AGC loop to the correct level, causing the recovery from AGC undershoot/RSSI overshoot condition April 15, 2015 Figure 5. Proper TTGD (1ms) with Sufficient AGC Reference Oscillator The reference oscillator in the MICRF230, shown in Figure 6, uses a basic Pierce crystal oscillator 12 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MICRF230 configuration with MOS transconductor. Though the MICRF230 has built-in load capacitors for the crystal oscillator, the external load capacitors are still required for tuning it to the right frequency. RO1 and RO2 are external pins of the MICRF230 to connect the crystal to the reference oscillator. Figure 6. Reference Oscillator Circuit Table 3.

April 15, 2015 13 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MICRF230 values. Note that the net impedance at the pin is easily affected by component pads parasitic due to the high input impedance of the device. The numbers in Table 5 does NOT include trace and component pad parasitic capacitance, which total about 0.75pF on the evaluation board. Application Information Length of Preamble When the MICRF230 returns to operation from shut down stage, the preamble of the corresponding transmitter should be long enough to guarantee that the MICRF230 becomes fully awake during the preamble portion of the burst. This way the entire data portion will be received. The matching components to the PCB antenna (L2 and C2) were empirically derived for best over-the-air reception range. Figure 7 shows an example of insufficient length preamble. MICRF230 starts demodulating output bits during the data portion of the burst, so by the time it becomes fully awake and releases DO, part of the data portion is lost. In Figure 8, the preamble length is sufficient. The chip has enough preambles to be demodulated with a steady data portion. Table 5. Input Impedance for the Most Used Frequencies Frequency (MHz) Z Device (Ω) 418 8.98 − j152 433.92 13.5 − j150 Crystal Selection The crystal resonator provides a reference clock for all the device internal circuits. Crystal tolerance needs to be chosen such that the down-converted signal is always inside the IF bandwidth of MICRF230. From this consideration, the tolerance should be ±50ppm on both the transmitter and the MICRF230 side. The ESR should be less than 300Ω, and the temperature range of the crystal should match the range required by the application. With the Abracon crystal listed in the Bill of Materials, a typical MICRF230 crystal oscillator still starts up at 105°C with additional 400Ω series resistance. Figure 7. Preamble Length − Too Short The oscillator of the MICRF230 is a pierce-type oscillator. Good care must be taken when laying out the printed circuit board. Avoid long traces and place the ground plane on the top layer close to the REFOSC pins RO1 and RO2. When care is not taken in the layout, and the crystals used are not verified, the oscillator may not start or takes longer to start. Time-to-good-data will be longer as well. Figure 8. Preamble Length − Sufficient Antenna and RF Port Connections The evaluation board offers two options of injecting the RF input signal: through a PCB antenna or through a 50Ω SMA connector. The SMA connection allows for conductive testing, or an external antenna. Low-Noise Amplifier Input Matching Capacitor C3 and inductor L2 form the “L” shape input matching network to the SMA connector. The capacitor cancels out the inductive portion of the net impedance after the shunt inductor, and provides additional attenuation for low-frequency outside band noise. The inductor is chosen to over resonate the net capacitance at the pin, leaving a net-positive reactance and increasing the real part of the impedance. It also provides additional ESD protection for the antenna pin. The input impedance of the device is listed in Table 5 to aid calculation of matching April 15, 2015 14 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc. MICRF230 PCB Considerations and Layout The MICRF230 evaluation board is a good starting point for prototyping of most applications. The Gerber files are downloadable from the Micrel website and contain the remaining layers needed to fabricate this board. When copying or making one’s own boards, make the traces as short as possible. Long traces alter the may become invalid. Suggested matching values may vary due to PCB variations. A PCB trace 100 mils (2.5mm) long has about 1.1nH inductance. Optimization should always be done with range tests. Make sure the individual ground connection has a dedicated via rather than sharing a few of ground points by a single via. Sharing ground via will increase the ground path inductance. Ground plane should be solid and with no sudden interruptions. Avoid using the ground plane on the top layer next to the matching elements. It normally adds additional stray capacitance which changes the matching. Do not use Phenolic materials as they are conductive above 200MHz. FR4 or better materials are recommended. The RF path should be as straight as possible to avoid loops and unnecessary turns. Separate ground and VDD lines from other digital or switching power circuits (such as microcontrollers, etc.). Known sources of noise should be laid out as far as possible from the RF circuits. Avoid unnecessary wide traces which would add more distribution capacitance (between top trace to bottom GND plane) and alter the RF parameters. April 15, 2015 15 Revision 2.0 Micrel, Inc.
