With the TH71101 receiver chip, various circuit configurations can be arranged in order to meet a number of
different customer requirements. For FSK reception the IF tank used in the phase coincidence demodulator
can be constituted by an external ceramic discriminator. In ASK configuration, the RSSI signal is fed to an
ASK detector, which is constituted by the operational amplifier.
A double-conversion variant, called TH71102, is also available. This receiver IC allows a higher degree of
image rejection, achieved in conjunction with an RF front-end filter. Both RXICs have the same die. At the
TH71102, the second mixer (MIX2) is used to down-convert the first IF (IF1) to the second IF (IF2). At the
TH71101, MIX2 operates as an amplifier.
Efficient RF front-end filtering is realized by using a SAW, ceramic or helix filter in front of the LNA and by
adding an LC filter at the LNA output.
The TH71101 receiver IC consists of the following building blocks:

PLL synthesizer (PLL SYNTH) for generation of the local oscillator signal LO parts of the PLL SYNTH
are: the high-frequency VCO1, the feedback divider DIV_16, a phase-frequency detector (PFD) with
charge pump (CP) and a crystal-based reference oscillator (RO)
Low-noise amplifier (LNA) for high-sensitivity RF signal reception
First mixer (MIX1) for down-conversion of the RF signal to the IF
IF pre amplifier which is a mixer cell (MIX2) that operates as an amplifier
