AN9614 Using PRISM-Chip

A. External IF Filtering The band pass filters shown between the HFA3624 and the HFA3724 labeled as BPF1a and BPF1b on Figure 1 are centered at IF and filter the spread wideband waveform before demodulation on the receive side and before the final upconversion on the transmit side. One might think that the TX filter can be avoided but it is required to meet the .

Features

SAW BPFs centered at 280MHz with a BW of about 17MHz. This is assuming an 11MHz chip rate (thus 22MHz spread null to null bandwidth). A recommended device that meets these requirements is the ToyoCom TQS-432. A. Selection of external filtering supporting the PRISM components. B. Limitations on filter cut off frequencies of the HFA3724 internal Low Pass Filters. C. Selection of appropriate carrier and clock oscillators to achieve the desired performance, given the HSP3824 internal Acquisition and Tracking loop integration constraints. The system designer should also evaluate the option where the.
