Single chip transceiver for 2.45 GHz ISM band  
SA2400A  
high-pass will then remain set to the 10 kHz cutoff frequency until a  
new AGC cycle is started.  
6. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  
The SA2400A transceiver is intended for operation in the 2.45 GHz  
band, specifically for IEEE 802.11b 1 and 2 Mbits/s DSSS, and  
5.5 and 11 Mbits/s CCK standards. Throughout this document, the  
operating RF frequency refers to the ISM band between 2.4 GHz  
and 2.5 GHz.  
Whenever there is a frequency change in the high-pass filter lower  
cutoff, the DC offset can change from a very low value to about 50%  
(1 MHz 100 kHz step) or 10% (100 kHz 10 kHz step) of the  
signal level. This DC offset then decays according to the high-pass  
response of the filter.  
6.1 RF VCO  
The cutoff frequency of the high-pass filter can also be selected  
manually by using the RXMGC mode.  
The local oscillator is common to both the transmitter and the  
receiver. The RF VCO is a differential 4.8 GHz oscillator with the  
frequency determining components internal to the IC. The VCO is  
connected internally to a frequency divider and a quadrature  
generator circuit which produces the LO for the IQ up- and  
downmixer. The divider output is also internally connected to the  
synthesizer, which can be programmed in order to produce steps of  
0.5 MHz for the desired LO frequency.  
6.6 AGC  
The receiver contains a fully integrated Automatic Gain Control loop.  
It works by adjusting the internal gain such that the Rx output  
amplitude, as measured by the RSSI (see below), meets a  
predefined target value.  
By default, the AGC is always set to a default maximum gain  
(adjustable by register value GMAX) whenever the SA2400A enters  
the RECEIVE mode of operation from another operational mode. It  
takes 5 µs for the receiver to settle when it enters this mode, which  
includes the time for DC offsets to be removed with a 1 MHz lower  
cut-off frequency of the high-pass filtering. This lower cut-off  
frequency of 1 MHz remains unchanged as long as the AGC  
remains in the default maximum gain state.  
At the time of power-up, the VCO must be calibrated by invoking the  
VCOCALIB mode by means of the three-wire bus. This operation  
will select an appropriate frequency band in the VCO, thus  
compensating for process tolerances. The calibration takes up to  
2.2 ms, after which the IC automatically enters the SLEEP mode.  
The synthesizer registers 0x00 through 0x03 must be  
re-programmed after completing the VCOCALIB.  
The 2.45 GHz LO can also be injected externally.  
The AGC must be invoked by providing a 0-to-1 transition on the  
AGCRESET pin, and keeping the signal on that pin to 1 for at least  
5 µs.  
6.2 RF Low Noise Amplifier  
The RF LNA has differential inputs and an external balun is needed  
in the case of single-ended operation. It has two gain states which  
are controlled internally by the on-chip automatic gain control, or  
manually via the 3-wire bus.  
By successively reducing the gain from its initial maximum value,  
the loop searches for the correct gain value to provide a nominal  
output amplitude of 500 mV  
for a QPSK signal (within  
peak, differential  
±3 dB dynamic error) at the output pins. This is achieved after a  
maximum of 8 µs. This time is defined by wait periods necessary to  
settle the receiver after gain switching actions. The individual wait  
periods can be adjusted by means of register settings.  
6.3 Downconversion mixers  
The RF signal is converted down directly to baseband by quadrature  
image-reject mixers.  
6.4 Receiver low-pass filter, baseband amplifiers  
The I and Q low-pass filters are fully integrated Chebychev active  
filters. The I and Q pass band extends from DC to a –3 dB corner at  
7 MHz.  
After completing the AGC settling process, the AGCSET pin is set to  
1 by the algorithm. The receiver gain then will not change again until  
another pulse is issued on the AGCRESET pin.  
For a subsequent AGC operation, the receiver needs to enter its  
maximum gain state again. If another AGCRESET signal (as  
described above) is issued, the settling period will take an extra  
3 µs, up to a total of 11 µs, since the first 3 µs will be spent on  
entering maximum gain mode and settling the receiver thereafter. To  
shorten this operation, the receiver can be forced to maximum gain  
(e.g., at a time when no signal is present) by issuing a 0–1–0 pulse  
of maximum 1 µs pulse width on the AGCRESET pin. The receiver  
will then enter maximum gain mode (the AGCSET signal will not be  
set to 1 after this), and a following 0-to-1 transition on the  
AGCRESET pin will start the settling sequence from maximum gain,  
which will then take a maximum of 8 µs.  
Additional adjustable gain is provided in baseband amplifiers to  
achieve a total adjustable gain range of 79 dB. The Rx output is  
provided in the form of differential I and Q signals, which must be  
DC coupled to the ADC inputs on a base band IC.  
6.5 DC cancellation  
The Rx chain also integrates a high-pass filter (DC notch) for  
cancellation of the DC offset inherent to zero-IF operation. The  
high-pass filter has a programmable lower 3 dB cutoff frequency of  
10 MHz, 1 MHz, 100 kHz or 10 kHz. The DC offset cancellation  
occurs simultaneously with the AGC settling process. During the  
AGC settling phase (see below) the cutoff frequency is dynamically  
selected between 10 MHz and 1 MHz to quickly reduce DC offset  
values from +50 dBc to below –20 dBc relative to a –76 dBm  
antenna input signal before the RSSI (see below) is internally  
sampled. After the AGC settling, the high pass is configured for  
100 kHz for 5 µs before switching to a final 10 kHz cutoff frequency.  
The low value of 10 kHz is required for minimizing the signal  
distortion created by a high-pass function at zero frequency. The  
The receiver gain can also be selected manually by using the  
RXMGC mode.  
The settling target can be adjusted by ±7 dB from the nominal level  
of 500 mV  
by means of register settings.

Note: When doing measurements with a single-tone RF signal, the

streams. In this case, integrated FIR–DACS provide additional  
filtering. The data streams are sampled with the reference clock. For  
timing specifications, please see the transmitter parameters section.  
6.7 AGC Handshake  
On the digital input pin AGCRESET, a 0-to-1 transition clears  
AGCSET output to logic 0 and starts the AGC cycle. At the end of  
the AGC settling, the AGCSET output is asserted to logic 1. The  
AGCRESET input can then be reset to logic 0. At any time in the  
RECEIVE mode the AGC can be forced to the maximum gain by  
giving the AGCRESET signal as described, but by additionally  
re-setting it to logic 0 within 1 µs. The AGCSET indication is not  
given in this case and the receiver settling time is 3 µs. The channel  
filters will be set to have a lower cut-off of 1 MHz. For a timing  
diagram, please see the receiver parameters section.  
The wide band IQ upconverter includes spectral shaping  
th  
reconstruction filters (4 order low-pass Butterworth with 9.75 MHz  
3 dB upper cut-off frequency).  
At +8 dBm maximum transmitter output level the out-of-band (FCC  
forbidden band) spurious signal power is less than –77 dBc  
(integrated over 1 MHz with a 100 kHz resolution bandwidth) for the  
1
11 Msymbols/sec CCK modulation (footnote ). This implies that the  
spectral regrowth is dominated by any external PA that may be used  
to boost the transmission power level.  
6.8 RSSI  
The Receive Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) is implemented as an  
error signal comparing the signal level at the Rx output to the  
In analog mode, it is assumed that the input baseband IQ signals as  
delivered from the Baseband IC are pulse shaped.  
nominal value of 500 mV  
. It has a –10 dBc to +10 dBc  
peak,differential  
operational range relative to the nominal signal level. Since the  
RSSI acts on the modulated RF signal envelope that is extracted  
from the baseband I and Q signals, it includes DC offsets, and will  
therefore show transient decaying errors when the AC coupling  
lower cut-off frequency is changed.  
By using the on-chip calibration loop, the transmitter Carrier  
Leakage can be reduced to levels far less than required by the  
standard. An RF power meter detects the LO level, converts it into a  
digital signal and a state machine determines the compensation  
values which are fed through a DAC directly to the IQ inputs. This  
mode is activated by setting the IC into the DCALIB mode by means  
of 3-wire bus programming. This calibration is designed to  
compensate for any DC offsets delivered by the ADCs on the  
Baseband IC. The DCALIB cannot be used when the IC is using the  
digital-input Tx mode.  
The RSSI signal reflects on a logarithmic scale the amplitude of the  
instantaneous modulated RF signal (envelope). The RSSI signal is  
filtered by a low-pass filter with 0.5 MHz upper cut-off frequency.  
The SA2400A receiver is designed to give at least –10 dBc RSSI at  
maximum gain, when there is no signal present, i.e., with only  
thermal noise. However, due to process spreads (e.g., gain, noise  
figure, IQ low-pass filter bandwidth, etc.), the RSSI may show higher  
than –10 dBc. In case a calibration is required for setting this noise  
power to –10 dBc, the AGC’s maximum gain (GMAX) can be  
changed in the range of 85 to 54 dB in steps of 1 dB via register  
settings. The programmed value of maximum gain is never altered  
by the AGC settling or by forcing the AGC to maximum gain. Only  
the RXMGC mode can set the AGC gain to values higher than  
GMAX. The RXMGC mode does not change the value of GMAX.  
The IQ gain and phase imbalance, reconstruction filter roll-off and  
in-channel noise produce a modulation EVM of less than 12% for  
11 Msymbols/sec QPSK. The transmitter has two switched outputs,  
one with –1.5 dBm output power and the other one with +8 dBm  
output power. The input pin TX_HI is used to select between the two  
RF output ports.  
The 8 dBm output port is differential and is designed to work  
seamlessly (no external filtering required) with the SA2411 power  
amplifier.  
Upon entering the Tx mode, the ramping up of the RF Tx signal is  
delayed by an internal power ramping circuit. The ramping up time is  
fixed, while the delay prior to ramping up can be programmed by  
register settings.  
6.9 Receiver blocking immunity  
The receiver is designed to exceed the IEEE802.11 specifications  
for the blocking and intermodulation. It can accept continuous or  
randomly pulsed interfering single- or multi-tone signals that are  
more than 35 dB stronger than the wanted signal, and up to  
–10 dBm of interference level. The spurious I and Q outputs are  
maintained to smaller than –20 dBc of the wanted signal level.  
Note: When switching out of the Transmit mode (either into Receive  
mode by transition on TXRX pin, or into another mode by 3-wire  
programming), the reference clock input (pins XTAL_1 and XTAL_2)  
needs to be active since a digital timer is being used.  
6.10 Transmitter and IQ upconverter  
The transmitter inputs are designed to be driven from a Baseband  
IC in one of two modes: a) in analog mode, differential I and Q  
inputs expect current signals driven by DACs in the Baseband IC; or  
b) in digital mode, single-ended inputs expect two binary data  
6.11 Reference current and voltage outputs  
The IC provides a temperature-constant reference current of 1 mA  
or 300 µA (selectable), active in Tx mode, as well as a 2.5 V  
reference voltage.  
1.  
For a CCK signal, the peak signal power is 21.7 dB lower than the total power integrated over the 22 MHz band. The SA2400A guarantees better than 56 dBc  
suppression of the second sidelobe (greater than 22 MHz frequency offset). Consequently, the power level in the forbidden bands is at least 77 dBc below the transmitted  
integrated power.

any time in the RECEIVE mode, the AGC can be forced to the  
maximum gain setting by giving a 1 µs pulse on the AGC_RESET  
input while the TX/RX input is held at logic 0.  
8.1 RESET  
Shuts down all blocks except the 3-wire digital section, and  
programs internal registers to known default values that are  
described in section 13. This ensures that the SA2400A transmitter,  
receiver, synthesizer and other blocks enter a known state when  
made active. The SA2400A enters the SLEEP state automatically  
after the RESET state. Before entering either the TXRX or RXMGC  
active states, the internal registers can be reprogrammed to change  
their values from the default values. A power-up of the digital supply  
also forces the SA2400A to the RESET mode.  
8.6 FASTTXRXMGC  
It is similar to the RXMGC mode, except that the manual AGC gain  
programming can be done faster, as described in Section 14.5.  
8.7 FCALIB  
This mode needs to be programmed after power ON in order to  
internally calibrate the cut-off frequency of the on-chip transmit and  
receive active filters. Upon completion of the calibration, the IC will  
automatically switch to Main Mode = SLEEP. This calibration takes a  
maximum of 3 µs measured from the end of the programming  
sequence. The result of this calibration can be read out from register  
word 0x04.  
8.2 SLEEP  
All blocks (except the xtal osc) are OFF. The xtal osc can be  
separately shut down. Note that the 3-wire bus will remain  
operational in all modes as long as the digital supply is ON. The  
SA2400A retains programmed values of all active modes when it  
comes out of the sleep mode. This includes the synthesizer  
operation. Programmed via 3-wire bus.  
8.8 DCALIB  
If the analog Tx inputs are used, this mode needs to be programmed  
at least once after power ON in order to reduce the transmitter  
carrier leakage. This mode should be programmed after being in TX  
mode for at least 5 µs. Upon completion of the calibration, the IC will  
automatically switch to Main Mode = SLEEP. This calibration takes a  
maximum of 20 µs measured from the end of the programming  
sequence. The result of this calibration can be read out from register  
0x07.  
8.3 WAIT  
The PLL is on. Receiver and the transmitter are both OFF. This  
mode is useful for a quick turn-around to either TXRX or RXMGC  
modes. Transition to or from this mode is done via the 3-wire bus.  
8.4 RXMGC  
Only the PLL and Receiver are operating. The AGC gain is manually  
set by the value of a register field.  
8.9 VCOCALIB  
8.5 TXRX  
This mode needs to be programmed at least once after power ON in  
order to calibrate the internal VCO. Upon completion of the  
calibration, the IC will automatically switch to Main Mode = SLEEP.  
This calibration takes a maximum of 2.2 ms from the end of the  
programming sequence. After this calibration, the synthesizer must  
be re-programmed by writing the register words 0x00 through 0x03.  
The result of this calibration can be read out from register 0x08.  
In this mode the logic level on the TX/RX input pin determines the  
operational mode: 1 = TRANSMIT, 0 = RECEIVE. This way, no  
3-wire bus programming is necessary to switch between Tx and Tx,  
resulting in faster switching. When entering the RECEIVE mode  
(either via 3-wire programming to TXRX mode with TX/RX pin at  
logic zero, or by a 1-to-0 transition of TX/RX pin when already in the  
TXRX mode), the Receiver is set to maximum gain. An AGC cycle is

The baseband output signal extends from DC to 8 MHz, and the out-of-band frequency begins from 11 MHz. The modulated test signal used is  
11 Msymbols/sec QPSK with raised cosine filtering (50% excess bandwidth for 11 Msymbols/sec). The LO frequency is the same as the  
Receiver channel center frequency, as the IF output is at 0 Hz.

should be set to “+5” which causes the AGC to settle to an output amplitude greater than the specified nominal value. A resistive divider  
network at the output can be used to adjust the actual IQ output levels to the BB ADC range.  
2. Guaranteed by design.  
3. Verified by bench characterization and found to have sufficient margin for production.  
4. At power-up time, the filter bandwidth is undefined. It needs to be calibrated with the internal tuner (FCALIB mode).  
5. For unsymmetrical loading, attach the same load impedance to the unused pin; condition: for 80% of nominal output voltage swing.  
6. Nominal I/Q output levels are understood as the levels the SA2400A will settle to after an AGCRESET action is performed with an RF input

The output of the main divider will be modulated with a fractional  
phase ripple. The phase ripple is proportional to the contents of the  
fractional accumulator and is nulled by the fractional compensation  
charge pump.  
12. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION  
12.1 Main Fractional-N divider  
The divider consists of a fully programmable bipolar prescaler  
followed by a CMOS counter. Total divide ratios range from 512 to  
65535.  
The reloading of a new main divider ratio is synchronized to the  
state of the main divider to avoid introducing a phase disturbance.  
At the completion of a main divider cycle, a main divider output  
pulse is generated which will drive the main phase comparator.  
Also, the fractional accumulator is incremented by the value of NF.  
The accumulator works with modulo Q set by FM (Synthesizer  
Register A). When the accumulator overflows, the overall division  
ratio N will be increased by 1 to N + 1, the average division ratio  
over Q main divider cycles (either 5 or 8) will be  
12.2 Reference divider  
The reference divider consists of a divider with programmable  
values between 4 and 1023 followed by a 3-bit binary counter. The  
3-bit SM register (see Figure 5) determines which of the five output  
pulses are selected as the main phase detector input.

accumulator value and is adjusted by FDAC values (bits FC7–0 in  
Synthesizer B). The fractional compensation current is derived from  
the main charge pump in that it follows all the current scaling through  
programming or speed-up operation. For a given charge pump,  
12.4 Main output charge pumps and fractional  
compensation currents (see Figure 7)  
The main charge pumps on pin CP are driven by the main phase  
detector and the charge pump current value is determined by bit CP  
(Synthesizer Register C). The fractional compensation is derived  
from the contents of the fractional accumulator FRD and by the  
program value of the FDAC. The timing for the fractional  
compensation is derived from the main divider. The charge pumps  
will enter speed-up mode after sending a Synthesizer Register A  
word and stays active until a different word is sent.  
I
= (I  
/ 128) * (FDAC / 5*128) * FRD  
PUMP  
COMP  
FRD is the fractional accumulator value.  
The target values for FDAC are: 128 for FM = 1 (modulo 5) and  
80 for FM = 0 (modulo 8).  
12.6 Lock Detect  
The output LOCK maintains a logic ‘1’ when main phase detector  
indicates a lock condition. The lock condition is defined as a phase  
difference of less than 1 period of the frequency at the input  
XTAL_1, XTAL_2. Out of lock (logic ‘0’) is indicated when the  
synthesizer is powered down.  
12.5 Principle of fractional compensation  
The fractional compensation is designed into the circuit as a means  
of reducing or eliminating fractional spurs that are caused by the  
fractional phase ripple of the main divider. If I  
is the  
COMP  
compensation current and I  
is the pump current:  
+ I .

12.7 Power-down mode  
PUMP_TOTAL  
PUMP  
The power-on signal is defined by the bit ON in Synthesizer Register  
B. If ON = ‘1’, the synthesizer section is powered on/off as defined  
by the chip mode (register 0x04). If ON = ‘0’, it is defined as inverted  
to the chip mode. When the synthesizer is reactivated after  
power-down, the main and reference dividers are synchronized to  
avoid possibility of random phase errors on power-up.  
The compensation is done by sourcing a small current, I  
, see  
COMP  
Figure 8, that is proportional to the fractional error phase. For proper  
fractional compensation, the area of the fractional compensation  
current pulse must be equal to the area of the fractional charge  
pump ripple. The width of the fractional compensation pulse is fixed  
to 128 VCO cycles, the amplitude is proportional to the fractional

The 3-wire bus interface contains an internal counter (state  
14. 3-WIRE BUS/LOGIC CONTROL  
A simple 3-line bi-directional serial bus is used to program the  
circuit. The 3 lines are SDATA, SCLK and SEN. The SDATA line is  
bi-directional while the SCLK and SEN signals are always supplied  
externally:  
machine) which determines beginning and end of address and data  
word, the “write” pulse to the internal registers, and the direction of  
nd  
the bi-directional SDATA pin. Consequently, with the 32 rising  
SCLK edge of a WRITE cycle, the current data word is stored in the  
internal register of the programmed address. Following SCLK edges  
will be taken as the beginning of the following cycle. No  
programming on SEN is needed to separate cycles.  
The pin SEN is an “enable” signal. It is level sensitive: If SEN is of  
LOW value, the 3-wire bus interface on the SA2400A is enabled.  
This means that each rising edge on the SCLK pin (see below)  
will be taken as a shift cycle, and address/data bits are expected  
on SDATA (see below). If SEN is HIGH, the 3-wire bus interface  
is disabled. No register settings will change regardless of activity  
on SCLK and SDATA.  
If the SEN signal is switched to HIGH (i.e., DISABLE) at any time,  
the current cycle will be disregarded. Any bits that have been shifted  
in so far via SDATA will be disregarded. The internal counter is reset  
to zero.  
The pin SCLK is the “shift clock” input. If the 3-wire bus is  
enabled, address or data bits will be clocked in from the SDATA  
pin with rising edges of SCLK. In output mode, SDATA bits are  
set on the falling edge of SCLK in order to be sampled on the  
rising edge by the controller.  
14.1 Description of WRITE cycle  
1. (start) SEN is LOW or is changed to LOW, i.e., 3-wire interface is  
enabled.  
2. (SCLK edge 1 through 7) 7 address bits are clocked in, LSB first.  
The bit values on SDATA are taken over with rising edges on  
SCLK.  
The pin SDATA is the bi-directional “data” pin. It is internally  
configured as “input” or “output” depending on the operation  
(WRITE or READ).  
3. (SCLK edge 8) The READ/WRITE bit is clocked in with the rising  
edge of SCLK. ‘1’ = WRITE, ‘0’ = READ.  
Each operation consists of 32 bits. Out of these, the first 7 bits form  
an address word, followed by a READ/WRITE indicator bit. The  
following 24 bits are the data word corresponding to the chosen  
address.  
4. (SCLK edges 9 through 32) 24 data bits are clocked in, LSB first,  
nd  
with rising edges of SCLK. With the 32 rising edge of SCLK,  
the whole data word is stored in the internal register according to  
the selected address.

with the following rising edge).

2. After programming register 0x01 it is necessary to also program register 0x00 to load the content of FC[7:0] into the internal working register.  
3. After programming register 0x00 it is necessary to program some other register (e.g., 0x04) to avoid keeping the charge pump current  
setting in php-speedup mode.  
4. After running the VCOCALIB mode, it is necessary to re-program registers 0x00 through 0x03.

14.4.2 Programming Example  
14.5 Fast serial interface for Receiver–AGC  
programming  
Program synthesizer for 2.412 GHz band  
When the chip is in mode “FASTTXRXMGC” the internal AGC block  
is disabled. Instead, the 10 bits controlling the receiver gain and the  
two bits controlling the DC offset cancellation corner frequency can be  
programmed directly via a dedicated second serial interface. This  
interface is active when in FASTTXRXMGC mode and when  
SEN=HIGH. (SEN acts as a switch between the regular serial  
interface and the dedicated bus).  
Input Xtal is 44 MHz, comparison frequency f  
= 4 MHz  
comp  
reference division ratio R = 11  
Target frequency is 2412 MHz, f  
= 4 MHz  
main divider ratio  
comp  
N = 603 (no fractional N)  
– write this word to register 00: 00 0 000 0000001001011011 00  
(note two leading zeros – unused bits 22, 23)  
14.5.1 Description of “fast programming” cycle  
1. Set the chip to FASTTXRXMGC mode by programming  
register 4 with the correct value.  
– write this word to register 01: 00 0000001011 00 1 0 xxxxxxxx  
(x = no significance)  
Program synthesizer for 2.462 GHz band  
2. Set the SEN pin to HIGH.  
Input Xtal is 44 MHz, comparison frequency f  
= 4 MHz  
comp  
3. With each rising edge on pin SCLK, a new data bit is expected at  
pin AGCRESET. No address is needed. The sequence of the  
bits is the same as described for register 6, bits 0–11. The  
programming order is LSB first.

Target frequency is 2462 MHz, f  
= 4 MHz

4. With the 12 rising edge on SCLK, an internal counter will  
– write this word to register 00: 00 0 100 0000001001100111 00  
automatically parallel-load the shifted-in data bits into an internal  
register. The bits will immediately effect the receiver settings.  
– write this word to register 01: 00 0000001011 00 1 0 01010000  
Fractional compensation setting should be set in the application  
(depends on the loop parameters) with the help of the SA8027  
application note. The nominal value is FC = 640 / FM  
(FM = modulus, see address 00).  
5. The regular 3-wire bus is still accessible and can be  
programmed when SEN is LOW. Clock activity on SCLK will not  
affect receiver gain settings when SEN is LOW.
