Functional

Description

If ENABLE = L and the PA_ENABLE = L, the circuit is in standby mode consuming only

a very small amount of current so that a lithium cell used as power supply can work for

several years.

With ENABLE = H the XTO, PLL and the CLK driver are switched on. If PA_ENABLE

remains L only the PLL and the XTO is running and the CLK signal is delivered to the

microcontroller. The VCO locks to 32 times the XTO frequency.

With ENABLE = H and PA_ENABLE = H the PLL, XTO, CLK driver and the power

amplifier are on. With PA_ENABLE the power amplifier can be switched on and off,

which is used to perform the ASK modulation.

ASK Transmission

T he T 5 753 is activa ted by EN ABLE = H. PA_EN ABLE mu st r e m a in L fo r

typically

≥ 3 ms, then the CLK signal can be taken to clock the microcontroller and the

output power can be modulated by means of Pin PA_ENABLE. After transmission

PA_ENABLE is switched to L and the microcontroller switches back to internal clocking.

The T5753 is switched back to standby mode with ENABLE = L.

FSK Transmission

T he T 5 753 is activa ted by EN ABLE = H. PA_EN ABLE mu st r e m a in L fo r

typically

≥ 3 ms, then the CLK signal can be taken to clock the microcontroller and the

power amplifier is switched on with PA_ENABLE = H. The chip is then ready for FSK

modulation. The microcontroller starts to switch on and off the capacitor between the

XTAL load capacitor and GND with an open-drain output port, thus changing the refer-

ence frequency of the PLL. If the switch is closed, the output frequency is lower than if

the switch is open. After transmission PA_ENABLE is switched to L and the microcon-

troller switches back to internal clocking. The T5753 is switched back to standby mode

with ENABLE = L.

The accuracy of the frequency deviation with XTAL pulling method is about ±25% when

the following tolerances are considered.

Figure 4. Tolerances of Frequency Modulation

FSK deviation of ±21.5 kHz typical with worst case tolerances of ±16.25 kHz to

±28.01 kHz results.

CLK Output

An output CLK signal is provided for a connected microcontroller, the delivered signal is

CMOS compatible if the load capacitance is lower than 10 pF.

Clock Pulse Take-over

The clock of the crystal oscillator can be used for clocking the microcontroller. Atmel’s

ATARx9x has the special feature of starting with an integrated RC-oscillator to switch on

the T5753 with ENABLE = H, and after 1 ms to assume the clock signal of the transmis-

sion IC, so that the message can be sent with crystal accuracy.
