ADF7030-1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADF7030-1 is a fully integrated, radio transceiver achieving
high performance at very low power. The ADF7030-1 is ideally
suited for applications that require long range, network
robustness, and long battery life. It is suitable for applications
that operate in the ISM, SRD, and licensed frequency bands at
169.4 MHz to 169.6 MHz, 426 MHz to 470 MHz, and 863 MHz
to 960 MHz. It provides extensive support for standards-based
protocols like IEEE802.15.4g while also providing flexibility to
support a wide range of proprietary protocols.
The highly configurable low intermediate frequency (IF) receiver
supports a large range of receiver channel bandwidths from
2.6 kHz to 406 kHz. This range of receiver channel bandwidths
allows the ADF7030-1 to support ultranarrow-band, narrowband, and wideband channel spacing.
The ADF7030-1 features two independent PAs supporting
output power ranges of −20 dBm to +13 dBm and −20 dBm to
+17 dBm. The PAs support ultrafine adjustment of the power
with a step resolution of 0.1 dB. The PA output power is
exceptionally robust over temperature and voltage. The PAs
have an automatic power ramp control to limit spectral splatter
to meet regulatory standards.
The ADF7030-1 features an on-chip ARM® Cortex®-M0
processor that performs radio control, radio calibration, and
packet management. Cortex-M0 eases the processing burden of
the host processor because the ADF7030-1 integrates the lower
layers of a typical communication protocol stack. This internal
processor also permits the download and execution of Analog
Devices, Inc., provided firmware modules that can extend the
functionality of the ADF7030-1.
The ADF7030-1 has two packet modes: generic packet mode
and IEEE802.15.4g mode. In generic packet mode, the packet
format is highly flexible and fully programmable, thereby
ensuring its compatibility with proprietary packet formats. In
IEEE802.15.4g packet mode, the packet format conforms to the
IEEE802.15.4g standard. FEC, as per the IEEE802.15.4g standard,
is also supported.
The ADF7030-1 operates with a power supply range of 2.2 V to
3.6 V and has very low power consumption in both Tx and Rx
modes, enabling long lifetimes in battery-operated systems. An
ultralow power deep sleep mode achieves a typical current of
10 nA with the configuration memory retained.
A complete wireless solution can be built using a small number of
external discrete components and a host processor (typically a
microcontroller). The host processor can configure the ADF7030-1
using a simple command-based protocol over a standard 4-wire
SPI interface. A single-byte command transitions the radio
between states or performs a radio function.
The ADF7030-1 is available in two package types: a 6 mm ×
6 mm, 40-lead LFCSP and a 7 mm × 7 mm, 48-lead LQFP. Both
package types use NiPdAu plating to mitigate against silver
migration in high humidity applications. The ADF7030-1
operating temperature range is −40°C to +85°C.
For Figure 13 to Figure 19, Figure 30, Figure 42, Figure 60,
Figure 61, and Figure 75 in the Typical Performance Characteristics
section, PA_COARSE is a programmable value that provides a
coarse adjustment of the PA output power. This value can be
programmed in the range of 1 to 6 for PA1, and from 1 to 10 for
PA2. PA_FINE is a programmable value that provides a fine adjustment of the PA output power. This value can be programmed in
the range of 3 to 127 for both PA1 and PA2. PA_MICRO is a
programmable value that provides a microadjustment (typically
13 dBm and < 17 dBm; the PA LDO
voltage is configurable
