ADF7012
315 MHz OPERATION
The recommendations presented here are guidelines only.
The design should be subject to internal testing prior to FCC
site testing. Matching components need to be adjusted for
board layout.
The FCC standard 15.231 regulates operation in the band
from 260 MHz to 470 MHz in the US. This is used generally
in the transmission of RF control signals, such as in a satellite-
decoder remote control, or remote keyless entry system.
The band cannot be used to send any continuous signal. The
maximum output power allowed is governed by the duty cycle
of the system. A typical design example for a remote control
is provided.

Meets FCC 15.231
The main requirements in the design of this remote are a long
battery life and sufficient range. It is possible to adjust the
output power of the ADF7012 to increase the range depending
on the antenna performance.
The center frequency is 315 MHz. Because the ADF7012
VCO is not recommended for operation in fundamental mode
for frequencies below 400 MHz, the VCO needs to operate at
630 MHz. Figure 36 implies an inductor value of, or close to,
7.6 nH. The chip inductor chosen = 7.5 nH (0402CS-7N5
from Coilcraft). Coil inductors are recommended to provide
sufficient Q for oscillation.
Crystal and PFD
Phase noise requirements are not excessive as the adjacent
channel power requirement is −20 dB. The PFD is chosen to
minimize spurious levels (beat note and reference), and to
ensure a quick crystal power-up time.
Figure 10 shows a typical power-on time for a 4 MHz crystal.
N-Divider
The N-divider is determined as being
PFD = 3.6864 MHz − power-up time 1.6 ms.

Deviation
The deviation is set to ± 50 kHz to accommodate simple
receiver architecture.
The modulation steps available are in 3.6864 MHz/2
Bias Current
Because low current is desired, a 2.0 mA VCO bias can be used.
Additional bias current reduces any spur, but increases current
consumption.
The PA bias can be set to 5.5 mA and can achieve 0 dBm.
Loop Filter Bandwidth
The loop filter is designed with the ADIsimSRD Design Studio.
The loop bandwidth design is straightforward because the
20 dB bandwidth is generally of the order of >400 kHz (0.25%
of center frequency). A loop bandwidth of close to 100 kHz
strikes a good balance between lock time and spurious
suppression. If it is found that pulling of the VCO is more than
desired in OOK mode, the bandwidth could be increased.
Design of Harmonic Filter
The main requirement of the harmonic filter should ensure
that the third harmonic level is < −41.5 dBm. A fifth-order
Chebyshev filter is recommended to achieve this, and a
suggested starting point is given next. The Pi format is chosen
to minimize the more expensive inductors.
