The MC13190 is a Short-Range, Low-Power 2.4 GHz ISM band transceiver. Together with an appropriate microprocessor or DSP for a Baseband Controller, it provides cost effective solutions for short-range (up to 10 meters), battery-powered data links. Applications include remote control, wire replacement, wireless audio, and wireless game control. The receiver includes a low noise amplifier (LNA), AM demodulator, band pass filter and limiting IF. The transmitter includes modulation control, baseband filtering and AM modulator. An on-chip PLL/VCO derives the RF frequency from a fixed 256 multiplication of the reference frequency. The device is fabricated using Motorola's RF BiCMOS process and is housed in a 32 lead QFN package with backside ground.
