RF2516  
RF2516 Theory of Operation  
Introduction  
Short range radio devices are becoming commonplace in today’s environment. The most common examples are the remote  
keyless entry systems popular on many new cars and trucks, and the ubiquitous garage door opener. Other applications are  
emerging with the growth in home security, automation and the advent of various remote control applications. Typically these  
devices have been simplex, or one-way, links. They are also typically built using surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices as the fre-  
quency control elements. This approach has been attractive because the SAW devices have been readily available and a trans-  
mitter, for example, could be built with only a few additional components. Recently however, RF Micro Devices, Inc. (RFMD), has  
introduced several new components that enable a new class of short-range radio devices based on the use of crystals and  
phase-locked loops for frequency control. These devices are superior in performance and comparable in cost to the traditional  
SAW-based designs. The RF2516 is an example of such a device. The RF2516 is targeted for applications such as 315MHz  
and 433MHz band remote keyless entry systems and wireless security systems, as well as other remote control applications.  
The RF2516 Transmitter  
The RF2516 is a low-cost AM/ASK VHF/UHF transmitter designed for applications operating within the frequency range of  
100MHz to 500MHz. In particular, it is intended for 315MHz to 433MHz band systems, remote keyless entry systems, and  
FCC Part 15.231 periodic transmitters. It can also be used as a local oscillator signal source. The integrated VCO, phase detec-  
tor, prescaler, and reference oscillator require only the addition of an external crystal to provide a complete phase-locked loop.  
In addition to the standard power-down mode, the chip also includes an automatic lock-detect feature that disables the trans-  
mitter output when the PLL is out-of-lock.  
The device is manufactured on a 25GHz Silicon Bipolar-CMOS process and packaged in an industry standard SSOP-16 plastic  
package. This, combined with the low external parts count, enables the designer to achieve small-footprint, high-performance,  
low-cost designs.  
The RF2516 is designed to operate from a supply voltage ranging from 2.25V to 3.6V, accommodating designs using three  
NiCd battery cells, two AAA flashlight cells, or a lithium button battery. The device is capable of providing up to +10dBm output  
power into a 50Ω load, and is intended to comply with FCC requirements for unlicensed remote control transmitters. ESD pro-  
tection is provided on all pins except VCO and TX OUT.  
While this device is intended for OOK operation, it is possible to use narrowband FM. This is accomplished by modulating the  
reference oscillator rather than applying the data to the MOD IN input pin. The MOD IN pin should be tied high to cause the  
device to transmit. The deviation will be set by pulling limits of the crystal. Deviation sufficient for the transmission of voice and  
other low data rate signals can therefore be accomplished. Refer to the Application Schematic in the data sheet for details.  
The RF2516 Functional Blocks  
A PLL consists of a reference oscillator, a phase detector, a loop filter, a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), and a programma-  
ble divider in the feedback path. The RF2516 includes all of these internally, except for the loop filter and the reference oscilla-  
tor’s crystal and two feedback capacitors.  
The reference oscillator is a Colpitts type oscillator. Pins 1 (OSC B) and 2 (OSC E) provide connections to a transistor that is  
used as the reference oscillator. The Colpitts configuration is a low parts count topology with reliable performance and reason-  
able phase noise. Alternatively, an external signal could be injected into the base of the transistor. The drive level should, in  
either case, be around 500mVPP. This level prevents overdriving the device and keeps the phase noise and reference spurs to  
a minimum.  
The prescaler divides the VCO frequency by either 64 or 32, using a series of flip-flops, depending upon the logic level present  
at the DIV CTRL pin. A high logic level will select the 64 divisor. A low logic level will select the 32 divisor. This divided signal is  
then fed into the phase detector where it is compared with the reference frequency.
