Notes:
[1]. The CMT2157A can directly work with external 26 MHz reference clock input to XTAL pin (a coupling capacitor is
required) with amplitude 0.3 to 0.7 Vpp.
[2]. This is the total tolerance including (1) initial tolerance, (2) crystal loading, (3) aging, and (4) temperature dependence.
The acceptable crystal tolerance depends on RF frequency and channel spacing/bandwidth.
[3]. The required crystal load capacitance is integrated on-chip to minimize the number of external components.
[4]. This parameter is to a large degree crystal dependent.

The general layout guidelines are listed below. For more design details, please refer to “AN111 CMT215x Schematic and
PCB Layout Design Guideline”
Use as much continuous ground plane metallization as possible.
Use as many grounding vias (especially near to the GND pins) as possible to minimize series parasitic inductance
between the ground pour and the GND pins.
3.
Avoid using long and/or thin transmission lines to connect the components.
Avoid placing the nearby inductors in the same orientation to reduce the coupling between them.
Place C0 as close to the CMT2157A as possible for better filtering.

Figure 11. CMT2157A Functional Block Diagram
5.1 Overview
The CMT2157A is a true single-chip, highly flexible, high performance, OOK RF transmitter with embedded data encoder ideal
for 240 to 960 MHz wireless applications. It is part of the CMOSTEK NextGenRFTM family, which includes a complete line of
transmitters, receivers and transceivers. The device integrates a data encoder that is not only compatible with the most
common used encoding format of 1527 and 2262, but also a more efficient, flexible and powerful format of 1920 designed by
CMOSTEK. Up to 7 configurable push buttons are supported in multiple button modes. The device is optimized for the low
system cost, low power consumption, battery powered application with its highly integrated and low power design.
The functional block diagram of the CMT2157A is shown in figure above. The CMT2157A is based on direct synthesis of the
RF frequency by means of a fully integrated low-noise fractional-N frequency synthesizer. It uses a 1-pin crystal oscillator
circuit with the required crystal load capacitance integrated on-chip to minimize the number of external components. Every
analog block is calibrated on each Power-on Reset (POR) to an internal reference voltage source. The calibration can help the
chip to finely work under different temperatures and supply voltages. The transmission is triggered by pressing the push
button(s). The data is modulated and sent out by a highly efficient PA which output power can be configured from -10 to +13
dBm in 1 dB step size. RF Frequency, PA output power and other product features can be programmed into the embedded
EEPROM by the RFPDK and USB Programmer. This saves the cost and simplifies the product development and
manufacturing effort. Alternatively, in stock product of 868.35 MHz is available for immediate demands with no need of
EEPROM programming. The CMT2157A operates from 1.8 to 3.6 V so that it can finely work with most batteries to their useful
power limits. It only consumes 26.7 mA when transmitting +10 dBm FSK signal at 868.35 MHz under 3.3 V supply voltage.
5.2 Modulation, Frequency, Deviation and Symbol Rate
The CMT2157A supports GFSK/FSK modulation with the symbol rate up to 100 ksps, as well as OOK modulation with the
symbol rate up to 40 ksps. The supported deviation of the (G)FSK modulation ranges from 1 to 200 kHz. It continuously covers
the frequency range from 240 to 960 MHz, including the license free ISM frequency band around 315 MHz, 433.92 MHz,
868.35 MHz and 915 MHz. The device contains a high spectrum purity low power fractional-N frequency synthesizer with
output frequency resolution better than 198 Hz when the frequency is less than 480 MHz, and is about 397 Hz when the
frequency is larger than 480 MHz. See Table 9 for the modulation, frequency, deviation and symbol rate specifications.

5.3 Embedded EEPROM and RFPDK
The RFPDK (RF Products Development Kit) is a very user-friendly software tool delivered for the user configuring the
CMT2157A in the most intuitional way. The user only needs to fill in/select the proper value of each parameter and click the
“Burn” button to complete the chip configuration. No register access and control is required in the application program. See
figure below for the accessing of the EEPROM and Table 10 for the summary of all the configurable parameters of the
CMT2157A on the RFPDK.

range is from –10 to +14 dBm.
5.4 Power Amplifier
A highly efficient single-ended Power Amplifier (PA) is integrated in the CMT2157A to transmit the modulated signal out.
Depending on the application, the user can design a matching network for the PA to exhibit optimum efficiency at the desired
output power for a wide range of antennas, such as loop or monopole antenna. Typical application schematics and the
required BOM are shown in “Chapter 4 Typical Application Schematic”. For the schematic, layout guideline and the other
detailed information please refer to “AN111 CMT215x Schematic and PCB Layout Design Guideline”.
The output power of the PA can be configured by the user within the range from -10 dBm to +13 dBm in 1 dB step size using
the CMOSTEK USB Programmer and RFPDK.
5.5 PA Ramping
When the PA is switched on or off quickly, its changing input impedance momentarily disturbs the VCO output frequency. This
phenomenon is called VCO pulling, and it manifests as spectral splatter or spurs in the output spectrum around the desired
carrier frequency. By gradually ramping the PA on and off, PA transient spurs are minimized. The CMT2157A has built-in PA
ramping configurability with options of 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512 and 1024 us, as shown in Figure 13. When the
option is set to “0”, the PA output power will ramp up to its configured value in the shortest possible time. The ramp down time
is identical to the ramp up time in the same configuration.
CMOSTEK recommends that the maximum symbol rate should be no higher than 1/2 of the PA ramping “rate”, as shown in the
formula below:
SRMax ≤ 0.5 * (
1
tRAMP
Rev 0.8 | Page 15/31
)
www.hoperf.com
CMT2157A
In which the PA ramping “rate” is given by (1/tRAMP). In other words, by knowing the maximum symbol rate in the application,
the PA ramping time can be calculated by:
tRAMP ≤ 0.5 * (
1
)
SRMAX
The user can select one of the values of the tRAMP in the available options that meet the above requirement. If somehow the
tRAMP is set to be longer than “0.5 * (1/SRMax)”, it will possibly bring additional challenges to the OOK demodulation of the Rx
RFO Amplitude
device. For more detail of calculating tRAMP, please refer to “AN142 CMT2157A Configuration Guideline”.

5.6 Working States
The CMT2157A has following 4 different working states: SLEEP, XO-STARTUP, TUNE and TRANSMIT. The device stays in
the SLEEP state when no transmission is performed. Once the button(s) is/are pressed, the device goes through the sequence
of SLEEP XO-STARTUP TUNE TRANSMIT to transmit the data. After the transmission the device goes back to the
SLEEP state. When the device works in the periodic transmission mode, the device periodically wakes up from the SLEEP
state, goes the same sequence, performs the transmission and goes back to the SLEEP state. All the details of push button(s)
function and periodic transmission can be referred to “AN142 CMT2157A Configuration Guideline”.
SLEEP
When the CMT2157A is in the SLEEP state, all the internal blocks are turned off and the current consumption is minimized to
20 nA typically.
XO-STARTUP
Once the CMT2157A received the valid control signal, it will go into the XO-STARTUP state, and the internal XO starts to work.
The user has to wait for the tXTAL to allow the XO to get stable. The tXTAL is to a large degree crystal dependent. A typical value
of tXTAL is provided in the Table 11.
TUNE
The frequency synthesizer will tune the CMT2157A to the desired frequency in the time tTUNE. The PA can be turned on to
transmit the data generated by the embedded encoder only after the TUNE state is done.
TRANSMIT
The CMT2157A starts to modulate and transmit the data. The data packets being transmitted are generated by the embedded
encoder, and they are determined by the encoder selected, the button mode and the button being pressed.

5.8 ID Study
The ID Study function, which is supported in 1920 and 1527 modes, allows the receiver to study the Sync ID sent by the
CMT2157A. Since then, the receivers Sync ID is identical to that of the CMT2157A and therefore two devices are paired. The
lengths of the Sync ID are different in the different packet formats. In 1920 format, it is from 1 to 32 bits. In 1527 format, it is
fixed at 20 bits.
The ID Study is initialized by the CMT2157A. It is done by executing the following steps. An example of CMT2157A paring with
CMT2250/51A is given below.
1.
Press the Study Button on the CMT2157A and hold it over the time defined by the “Study Trigger Time”.
2.
CMT2157A starts to transmit the Study Packets, wait 1-2 seconds then release the Study Button.
3.
Try to press a certain button on the CMT2157A to check if the CMT2250/51A react correctly.
The figure below shows the timing characteristic after pressing down a study button. The Study Power is always independently

5.9 Button Modes
The button modes define the functions of the input pins K1 – K7. The CMT2157A supports 4 different button modes: Normal,
Matrix, Toggle and PWM, which are configured on the RFPDK. The following sections give the abstract of each button mode.
All the details of the button modes are given in the document “AN142 CMT2157A Configuration Guideline”.
5.9.1 Normal
The Normal Button Mode is supported in 1920, 1527 and 2262 format. In this mode, the buttons are directly mapped to the
data field of the packet. Multiple buttons can be pressed at the same time. For 1920 and 1527, the largest number of buttons is
7 which are defined by the parameter “Number of Button(s)”. For 2262, the largest number of buttons is 6, which is determined
by the Sync ID Length. The figure below gives an example which 4 push button keys are selected.

For the 4 data buttons mapped to D0 – D3, every time a button is pressed, the generated data bit toggles. For example, if the
default value of D1 is 0, press K4 down, the D1 is set to 1 in the current transmission, release the K4 and press it down again,
the D1 is set to 0 in the current transmission, and so on. This is what it means by “Toggle”. See the table below for the

5.9.4 PWM
The PWM Button Mode is only supported for 1920 and 1527 encoding format. In this mode, 2 buttons are used to send out
commands to increase or decrease the duty ratio of the PWM output of the CMT2251A. A single on/off button, or two
separated on/off buttons can be chosen by the parameter “On/Off Button(s)”. The “On” command sets the PWM output of the
CMT2251A to 100% of duty ratio, while the “Off” command sets the PWM output to 0% of duty ratio. In this mode, only one
button can be pressed at the same time. Pin 12 (K0), Pin 9 (K3), Pin 6 (K6) and Pin 5 (K7) are never used in this mode. The
commands of On, Off, Increase and Decrease are represented by D0 – D3. The figure below gives examples of the pin

Figure 26. PWM Button Mode with Single (left) and Separated (right) ON/OFF Button(s)
If K1 is used as the On/Off Button, press it down once, the “On” command is transmitted, release and press it down again, the
“Off” command is transmitted, and so on. In this case, K1 is a “Toggle” button. If the K1 is used as the On Button and K2 is
used as the Off Button, pressing K1, the “On” command is transmitted; pressing K2, the “Off” command is transmitted.
5.10 LED Driving Capability
This defines the maximum current driving capacity on the LED pin. Once the LED pin is enabled, it will light up or flash to
indicate two events:
When the chip is transmitting data, the LED will light up until the transmission is finished to notify the user the chip is
working, when the LBD is disabled, or LBD is enabled but there is no low battery detected.
When the LBD is enabled and there is valid low battery detection on the button(s) pressing, the LED will flash at least
5 times at the frequency of 6 Hz to notify the user the battery is running out.
5.11 Low Battery Detection (LBD)
This defines the Low Battery Detection threshold. Once the LBD is enabled, the chip will automatically check the battery status
before each transmission. Once the chip finds that the battery output is less than the detection threshold, the LED will flash at
least 5 times at the frequency of 6 Hz to notify the user. Once the LED flashes, the performance of the transmission is not
guaranteed. The user should change the batteries to new ones.
5.12 Crystal Oscillator and RCLK
The CMT2157A uses a 1-pin crystal oscillator circuit with the required crystal load capacitance integrated on-chip. Figure 27
shows the configuration of the XTAL circuitry and the crystal model. The recommended specification for the crystal is 26 MHz
with ±20 ppm, ESR (Rm) < 60 Ω, load capacitance CLOAD ranging from 12 to 20 pF. To save the external load capacitors, a set
of variable load capacitors CL is built inside the CMT2157A to support the oscillation of the crystal.
The value of load capacitors is configurable with the CMOSTEK USB Programmer and RFPDK. To achieve the best
performance, the user only needs to input the desired value of the XTAL load capacitance CLOAD of the crystal (can be found in
the datasheet of the crystal) to the RFPDK, then finely tune the required XO load capacitance according to the actual XO
frequency. Please refer to “AN113 CMT2157A/2250(1)A One-Way RF Link Development Kits User’s Guide” for the method of
choosing the right value of CL.

If a 26 MHz RCLK (reference clock) is available in the system, the user can directly use it to drive the CMT2157A by feeding
the clock into the chip via the XTAL pin. This further saves the system cost due to the removal of the crystal. A coupling
capacitor is required if the RCLK is used. The recommended amplitude of the RCLK is 0.3 to 0.7 Vpp on the XTAL pin. Also,
the user should set the internal load capacitor CL to its minimum value. See Figure 28 for the RCLK circuitry.
