RF Input Plus:
Differential RF Plus input to mixer.
2
RF Input Minus:
Differential RF Minus input to mixer.

OSC
B
LO Oscillator Transistor Base:
LO generator (Pins 3 and 4) with internal buffer to drive mixer differentially. Can
also be driven externally.
4
OSC
E
LO Oscillator Transistor Emitter:
Pins 3 and 4 are used to form an oscillator with external components (tank,
varactor, etc.).
5

CC1
Supply Voltage 1:
Voltage supply for mixer and main bias.
6
RSSI/AGC
RSSI Out and AGC Input:
Dual use: RSSI output in AMPS mode (no internal opamp) and AGC input in QPSK
mode if needed. If no AGC, input will auto AGC to pre-defined fixed level for IQ outputs, in which case this pin
also serves as RSSI output.
7
PWRDWN
Power-Down:
Chip power-down input (CMOS compatible).
8
OSC
DEMOD
IF Oscillator Input (LO frequency x4):
Oscillator input x4 for I/Q demodulation is needed for internally
generating quad LOs by division.
9
ModeSW
Mode Switch:
Logic control signal to select between AMPS and QPSK modes of operation.
10
AUDIO/LPF
Audio Out and LPF Corner Frequency Control:
Dual Use: Audio output in the AMPS mode and LPF corner
frequency control in QPSK mode.
11
DEMOD1
Demod Auxiliary Pin:
Used to implement FM demodulation in AMPS mode.

Baseband Q Ouptut:
Quadrature baseband output referenced to IQ

DEMOD2/Offsets
Demod Auxiliary Pin and I/Q Offset Control:
Dual Use: In AMPS mode serves for FM demodulator; in QPSK
mode serves as I/Q offset control.
18
IQ DEMOD
Input to the Demodulator:
IF input to demodulator from AGC IF amp output.

Ground 1:
Ground common for mixer and main bias.
