LNA Automatic Gain Control Circuitry
The LNA automatic gain control circuitry consists of an operational transimpedance amplifier that is used to compare the received signal strength signal
(RSSI) generated by the Limiter with an externally provided threshold voltage
Uthres. As shown in the following figure the threshold voltage can have any
value between approximately 0.8 and 2.8V to provide a switching point within
the receive signal dynamic range.
This voltage Uthres is applied to the THRES pin (Pin 23) The threshold voltage
can be generated by attaching a voltage divider between the 3VOUT pin
(Pin 24) which provides a temperature stable 3V output generated from the
internal bandgap voltage and the THRES pin. If the RSSI level generated by the
Limiter is higher than Uthres, the OTA generates a positive current Iload. This
yields a voltage rise on the TAGC pin (Pin 4). Otherwise, the OTA generates a
negative current. These currents do not have the same values in order to
achieve a fast-attack and slow-release action of the AGC and are used to
charge an external capacitor which finally generates the LNA gain control voltage.

RSSI Level and Permissive AGC Threshold Levels
The switching point should be chosen according to the intended operating scenario. The determination of the optimum point is described in the accompanying
Application Note, a threshold voltage level of 1.8V is apparently a viable choice.
It should be noted that the output of the 3VOUT pin is capable of driving up to
50µA, but that the THRES pin input current is only in the region of 40nA. As the
current drawn out of the 3VOUT pin is directly related to the receiver power consumption, the power divider resistors should have high impedance values. The
sum of R1 and R2 has to be 600kΩ in order to yield 3V at the 3VOUT pin. R1
can thus be chosen as 240kΩ, R2 as 360kΩ to yield an overall 3VOUT output
current of 5µA1 and a threshold voltage of 1.8V
Note: If the LNA gain shall be kept in either high or low gain mode this has to
be accomplished by tying the THRES pin to a fixed voltage. In order to achieve
high gain mode operation, a voltage higher than 2.8V shall be applied to the
THRES pin, such as a short to the 3VOLT pin. In order to achieve low gain
mode operation a voltage lower than 0.7V shall be applied to the THRES, such
as a short to ground.
As stated above the capacitor connected to the TAGC pin is generating the gain
control voltage of the LNA due to the charging and discharging currents of the
OTA and thus is also responsible for the AGC time constant. As the charging
and discharging currents are not equal two different time constants will result.
The time constant corresponding to the charging process of the capacitor shall
be chosen according to the data rate. According to measurements performed
at Infineon the capacitor value should be greater than 47nF.

4.3 Quartz Load Capacitance Calculation
The value of the capacitor necessary to achieve that the quartz oscillator is
operating at the intended frequency is determined by the reactive part of the
negative resistance of the oscillator circuit as shown in Section 5.1.3 and by the
quartz specifications given by the quartz manufacturer.

13.4 MHz: CL = 12 pFXL=1010 ΩCS = 5.9 pF
These values may be obtained in high accuracy by putting two capacitors in
series to the quartz, such as 22pF and 15pF in the 6.7MHz case and 22pF and
8.2pF in the 13.4MHz case.

4.4 Quartz Frequency Calculation
As described in Section 3.4.3 the operating range of the on-chip VCO is 820 to
860 MHz with a nominal center frequency of 840MHz. This signal is divided by
2 before applied to the mixer in case of operation at 434 MHz. This local oscillator signal can be used to downconvert the RF signals both with high- or lowside injection at the mixer. The resulting receive frequency ranges then extend
between 810 and 870MHz or between 400 and 440MHz. Low-side injection of
the local oscillator has to be used for receive frequencies between 840 and
870MHz as well as high-side injection for receive frequencies below 840MHz.
Corresponding to that in the 400MHz region low-side injection is applicable for
receive frequencies above 420MHz, high-side injection below this frequency.
Therefore for operation both in the 868 and the 434 MHz ISM bands low-side
injection of the local oscillator has to be used. Then the local oscillator frequency is calculated by subtracting the IF frequency (10.7 MHz) from the RF
frequency (434 or 868 MHz). Please note that no sign-inversion occurs in case
of reception and demodulation of FSK-modulated signals.
The overall division ratios in the PLL are 64 or 128 in case of operation at
868 MHz or 32 and 64 in case of operation at 434 MHz, depending on the crystal frequency used as shown below. The quartz frequency in case of low-side
injection may be calculated by using the following formula:
ƒQU = (ƒRF - 10.7) / r

f QU = (434.2 MHz − 10.7 MHz ) / 32 = 13.23437 MHz

4.5 Data Slicer Threshold Generation
The threshold of the data slicer can be generated using an external R-C integrator as shown in Figure 4-5. The cut-off frequency of the R-C integrator has
to be lower than the lowest frequency appearing in the data signal. In order to
keep distortion low, the minimum value for R is 20kΩ.

4.6 ASK/FSK Switch Functional Description
The TDA5210 is containing an ASK/FSK switch which can be controlled via
Pin 15 (MSEL). This switch is actually consisting of 2 operational amplifiers that
are having a gain of 1 in case of the ASK amplifier and a gain of 11 in case of
the FSK amplifier in order to achieve an appropriate demodulation gain characteristic. In order to compensate for the DC-offset generated especially in case
of the FSK PLL demodulator there is a feedback connection between the
threshold voltage of the bit slicer comparator (Pin 20) to the negative input of
the FSK switch amplifier. This is shown in the following figure.

4.6.1
ASK/FSK mode datapath
FSK Mode
The FSK datapath has a bandpass characterisitc due to the feedback shown
above (highpass) and the data filter (lowpass). The lower cutoff frequency f2 is
determined by the external RC-combination. The upper cutoff frequency f3 is
determined by the data filter bandwidth.
The demodulation gain of the FSK PLL demodulator is 140µV/kHz. This gain is
increased by the gain v of the FSK switch, which is 11. Therefore the resulting
dynamic gain of this circuit is 2mV/kHz within the bandpass. The gain for the DC
content of FSK signal remains at 140µV/kHz. The cutoff frequencies of the
bandpass have to be chosen such that the spectrum of the data signal is influenced in an acceptable amount.
In case that the user data is containing long sequences of logical zeroes the
effect of the drift-off of the bit slicer threshold voltage can be lowered if the offset
voltage inherent at the negative input of the slicer comparator (Pin20) is used.
The comparator has no hysteresis built in.

Specification, May 2001
TDA 5210
Applications
This offset voltage is generated by the bias current of the negative input of the
comparator (i.e. 20nA) running over the external resistor R. This voltage raises
the voltage appearing at pin 20 (e.g. 1mV with R = 100kΩ). In order to obtain
benefit of this asymmetrical offset for the demodulation of long zeros the lower
of the two FSK frequencies should be chosen in the transmitter as the zerosymbol frequency.
In the following figure the shape of the above mentioned bandpass is shown.

4.7 Principle of the Precharge Circuit
In case the data slicer threshold shall be generated with an external RC network
as described in Section 4.5 it is necessary to use large values for the capacitor
C attached to the SLN pin (pin 20) in order to achieve long time constants. This
results also from the fact that the choice of the value for R connected between
the SLP and SLN pins (pins 19 and 20) is limited by the 330kΩ resistor appearing in parallel to R as can be seen in Figure 4-7. Apart from this a resistor value
of 100kΩ leads to a voltage offset of 1mv at the comparator input as described
in Section 4.6.1. The resulting startup time constant τ1 can be calculated with:
τ1 = (R // 330kΩ) · C
In case R is chosen to be 100kΩ and C is chosen as 47nF this leads to
τ1 = (100kΩ // 330kΩ) · 47nF = 77kΩ · 47nF = 3.6ms
When the device is turned on this time constant dominates the time necessary
for the device to be able to demodulate data properly. In the powerdown mode
the capacitor is only discharged by leakage currents.
In order to reduce the turn-on time in the presence of large values of C a precharge circuit was included in the TDA5210 as shown in the following figure.

5.2 Test Circuit
The device performance parameters marked with ■ in Section 5.1.3 were measured on an Infineon evaluation board. This evaluation board can be obtained
together with evaluation boards of the accompanying transmitter device
TDA5100 in an evaluation kit that may be ordered on the INFINEON RKE
Webpage www.infineon.com/rke. In case a matching codeword is received,
decoded and accepted by the decoder the on-board LED will turn on. This signal is also accessible on a 2-pole pin connector and can be used for simple
remote-control applications. More information on the kit is available on request.
