DescriptionThe TH7120 is a single chip FSK/FM/ASK transceiver IC. It is designed to operate in low-power multi-channel programmable or single-channel stand-alone, half-duplex data transmission systems. It can be used for ISM, SRD or any other application operating in the frequency ranging of 300 MHz to 930 MHz.
The TH7120 transceiver IC consists of the following building blocks:
Low-noise amplifier (LNA) for high-sensitivity RF signal reception with switchable gain
Mixer (MIX) for RF-to-IF down-conversion
IF amplifier (IFA) to amplify and limit the IF signal and for RSSI generation
Phase-coincidence demodulator with external ceramic discriminator (FSK Demodulator)
Operational amplifier, connected to demodulator output (OA1)
Operational amplifier, integrator circuit at FSK-AFC mode (OA2)
Control logic with 3wire bus serial control interface (SCI)
Reference oscillator (RO) with external crystal
Reference divider (R counter)
Programmable divider (N/A counter)
Phase-frequency detector (PFD)
Charge pump (CP)
Voltage control oscillator (VCO) with internal varactor
Power amplifier (PA) with adjustable output power
The transceiver TH7120 can be used either as a 3wire-bus-controlled programmable or as a stand-alone fixedfrequency device. After power up, the transceiver is set to fixed-frequency mode. In this mode, pins FS0/SDEN and FS1/LD must be connected to VEE or VCC in order to set the desired frequency of operation. The logic levels at pins FS0/SDEN and FS1/LD must not be changed after power up in order to remain in fixed-frequency mode.
