GMSK Packet Data Modem and RF Transceiver

Receive
The receiver relies on external LNA, filtering and T/R switch; details can be found in the following
sections. The 1st mixer in the CMX990 has a differential input. To ensure optimum performance a balun
is required when driving from typical LNAs or filters. The balun may be a transformer type, which is
implemented using LC networks. Suitable matching components around the balun, selected for the
desired operating frequency, provide matching to 50W. Figure 6 shows a typical configuration for 800 -
840MHz operation.

F1 is a 4 pole crystal filter with a ±3.5kHz pass-band, implemented as a matched pair. The recommended
part is from Golledge, however other parts may be equally suitable although matching arrangements will
vary. When selecting and matching a crystal filter care should be taken to ensure a flat pass-band.
