used on the EV kit board for +23dBm output power at
4.5V, and 22kΩ is also recommended for +20dBm out-
put power at +3.0V. For +17dBm at 3.0V, 36kΩ is rec-
ommended. The current consumption, efficiency, and
distortion in the amplification chain are affected by the
choice of the resistor RPWRSET, offering a lot of design
flexibility.
The VASK pin is an input to the internal gain control cir-
cuitry. The gain control is greater than 30dB over the
full range of input voltages from 0 to VREG = 2.1V. This
input is used for ASK modulation. At 1V, a typical 15dB
attenuation is obtained from the peak power. When this
input is not used, connect VASK to VREG.
The RLPF input controls the modulation filter center fre-
quency.

868MHz/915MHz ISM Bands
The RLPF pin sets the bandwidth of the modulation fil-
ter. The default filter bandwidth, obtained with a 68kΩ
resistor, is for 1.2Mchips/s. The bandwidth is increased
to accommodate 5Mchips/s by decreasing the resistor
value to about 26kΩ. The minimum value for the resistor
is 12kΩ, which generates the maximum filter band-
width. A higher value can be used in FM mode to set
up a slow ramp-up time for the PA.
The data filter approximates a 3rd-order Butterworth fil-
ter. The 3dB cut-off frequency is adjusted through the
resistor on pin RLPF, which controls the first two poles
of the filter (the last high-frequency pole is fixed and set
around 10MHz). The filter is adjustable in a range from
approximately 700kHz to 7MHz.
With the nominal setting (3dB cut off at 0.8MHz), the fil-
ter attenuation is 10dB at 3.6MHz. If used with a BPSK
at 1.22MHz, this provides about 30dB of modulation
rolloff at 3.6MHz. Hence, a significant channelization
effect is obtained.
In the wideband setting (3dB cut off at 5MHz), the
attenuation at 30MHz is still 30dB, helping to pass the
FCC spurious emissions at 960MHz.
