Using NRF902 both FSK and ASK modulation is possible. The transmitter consists of a fully integrated frequency synthesiser, a power amplifier, a crystal oscillator and a modulator. Few external components are required: a 13.567 MHz crystal, two resistors and some decoupling capacitors. Due to the use of the crystal-oscillator stabilised frequency synthesiser, frequency drift is much lower than in comparable SAW-resonator based solutions. Output power is easily programmable by use of an external resistor. Current consumption is very low, only 9 mA at an output power of -10dBm. Built-in Clock and Power Down modes makes power saving and duty-cycling easily realisable.

ASK modulation can be realised by using the REXT pin (see Figure 8). When R2 is connected to VDD, the chip transmits a carrier. When the bias resistor is connected to VSS then the internal output power amplifier is turned off. These two situations represent logic `1' and logic `0' in an ASK system. When ASK modulation is used, the FSK pin must be connected to VDD.

FSK transmitter in ASK Transmit mode Antenna output The "ant" output pins provide a balanced RF output to the antenna. The pins must have a DC path to VDD, either via a RF choke or via the centre point in a loop antenna. The load impedance seen between the ant1/ant2 outputs should be in the range 200700. A load impedance of 400 is recommended if maximum output power (10dBm) is needed. Lower load impedance (for instance 50 ) can be obtained by fitting a simple matching network or a RF transformer (balun). The 50 load can also be connected directly between the ant1/ant2 pins, but this will result in higher current consumption for a given output power to the antenna. Note: Application notes of antenna layout solutions with matching networks will soon be available on our website: http://www.nvlsi.no.

Effectively the chip is disabled with minimal leakage current consumption, typically less than 10nA. Operating in this mode when not transmitting data, i.e. low duty cycle systems can significantly increase battery lifetime. The resistor R1 connected from the crystal pin towards VDD supplies the crystal oscillator with bias current (see Figure 9). When this resistor is connected to VSS or left open, the chip enters Power Down mode. As shown in Figure 9 the resistor R1 is connected to the "Power Down" terminal, this can be controlled by a micro-controller, hence eliminating the need to switch off the power supply to the chip when not transmitting. Start-up time when switching from Power Down mode to Transmit mode is approximately 2 ms.

In Clock mode, the crystal oscillator and reference clock outputs are operating, while the rest of the transmitter is disabled. The reference signal from the internal crystal oscillator is divided by 8 by use of a prescaler, this signal is available at the XO8 pin. Clock mode may be set by connecting the power adjusting resistor R2 to ground or by leaving it open (see Figure 10). Current consumption in Clock mode is typically 200 A when no load is applied at the XO8 clock output pin. If a capacitive load is applied at the XO8 output, then current consumption in Clock mode will increase. Start-up time when switching between Clock mode and Transmit mode is extremely fast, typically 30s.

FSK transmitter in Clock mode XO8 Clock Output Pin Capacitance The frequency of the clock signal is 1/8th of the crystal frequency i.e. a crystal frequency of 13.567 MHz will result in an output clock frequency of 1.695 MHz. The XO8 output signal will be present in Transmit mode and Clock mode. In Power Down mode the XO8 signal will be a logic "0". The capacitive load at the XO8 pin will affect current consumption in Clock mode. If the pin is left open the current consumption will typically be 200uA. Adding a capacitive load, such as microcontroller load [CML] to the XO8 pin will result in an increase in the current consumption, the increase I is given as: I = fXO8 VDD CML Example With a capacitive load of CML = 5pF, using VDD=3.0 V and a 13.567 MHz crystal, the current increase I becomes : I = fXO8 VDD CML = ((13 .567 MHz) / 8) 3.0 V 5 pF = 25 uA. The typical current consumption will increase to 225uA when adding CML=5 pF.
