Narrowband CMOS RF transmitter

19 November 2003 Telecoms, Datacoms, Wireless, IoT

Chipcon's CC1070 is a true single-chip, low-power, low-cost FSK/GFSK/ASK/OOK RF transmitter for narrowband and multichannel applications. The CC1070 complies with 25 kHz operation under EN 300 220 and 12,5/25 kHz operation under ARIB STD-T67. The circuit is mainly intended for the ISM/SRD bands at 426, 429, 868 and 915 MHz, but can easily be programmed for world-wide, multichannel operation at other frequencies in the 402 to 470 MHz and 804 to 940 MHz ranges. A counterpart to the company's CC1020 RF Transceiver, the CC1070 achieves minimal bill of material as it requires only a few external components. It offers a programmable data rate of up to 153,6 Kbps, a 2,1 to 3,6 supply voltage, programmable output power up to 10 dBm, fully on-chip VCO, programmable carrier frequency and intelligent wake-up circuitry for power management.
