Low Power Transceiver Using by ADF7242
This low power transceiver circuit project is designed using the ADF7242 fully integrated low-cost, short-range, low power transceiver designed for operation in the global 2.4 GHz ISM band.The receive path of the ADF7242 low power transceiver circuit is based on a zero-IF architecture enabling high blocking and selectivity performance. The transmit path is based on a direct closed loop VCO modulation scheme. The ADF7242 has a low consumption power that make it suitable for battery powered systems.

The ADF7242 supports IEEE 802.15.4 compliant DSSS-OQPSK modulation with a bitrate of 250 kbps and also supports FSK and GFSK modulation with bitrates from 62.5 kbps to 2 Mbps.ADF7242 fully supports arbitrary data rates only for FSK mode of operation. The ADF7242 also has a built in battery monitor features that has a very low power consumption and may be used in parallel with any mode of operation, except SLEEP state. The battery monitor generates a battery alert interrupt for the MCU when the battery voltage drops below the programmed threshold voltage.
