3.4.3. FSK Modulation
FSK modulation is performed inside the PLL bandwidth, by changing the fractional divider ratio in the feedback loop of the
PLL. The large resolution of the sigma-delta modulator, allows for very narrow frequency deviation. The frequency
deviation FDEV is given by:
FDEV = FSTEP × Fdev(13,0)
To ensure a proper modulation, the following limit applies:
BR
2
-------
≤ 500kHz
FDEV
+
Note no constraint applies to the modulation index of the transmitter, but the frequency deviation must exceed 600 Hz.
3.4.4. OOK Modulation
OOK modulation is applied by switching on and off the Power Amplifier. Digital control and smoothing are available to
improve the transient power response of the OOK transmitter.
