PRELIMINARY
ML2713 Radio IF Transceiver
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ML2713 combined with the ML2712 forms an
FSK (Frequency Shift Keying) 2.4 GHz radio chipset
for systems based on IEEE802.11 and other wireless
communication protocols using the 2.4HGz ISM band.
The ML2713 is the complete IF section of Micro Linear’s
2.4GHz frequency hopping, half duplex radio transceiver
chipset. The chip’s down conversion super-heterodyne
receiver circuit contains an image reject down-convert
mixer, a limiter, a discriminator, a receive data filter and
a tracking A/D converter. The chips transmit circuit
contain a 6 bit D/A converter to digitally modulate the IF,
an anti alias filter and an image reject up-convert mixer.
