Pin Description
The following table provides detailed listings of pin descriptions arranged by functional groupings.
Name
Pad Type
Ball
Description
Radio (Power from VCC)
RF_IN
Analog
A2
RF signal input into the receiver.
RF_OUT
Analog
A4
RF signal output from the transmitter.
VTUNE
Analog
A6
Pin for reference PLL loop filter, only used if reference frequency is not
integer multiples of 4 MHz.
CHG_PUMP
Analog
F1
Pin for RF loop filter.
XTAL_N
Analog
A7
System clock crystal negative input. If a reference clock is used, this pin
should be left unconnected.
XTAL_P/CLK
Analog
B7
System clock crystal positive input or reference clock input.
IDAC
Analog
B1
Power control to external power amplifier. This output provides a variable
current source that can be used to control the external power amp. Leave
unconnected if not used.
VREFP_CAP
Analog
C1
Decoupling capacitor for internal A/D converter voltage reference.
VREFN_CAP
Analog
C2
Decoupling capacitor for internal A/D converter voltage reference.
Low Power Oscillator and Reset (Power from VDD_P)
CLK32K_IN
Analog
K10
For crystal or external clock input (32.768 kHz).
CLK32K_OUT
Analog
L11
Drive for crystal.
RESET_N
Analog
C6
System level reset (active low).
Power Control Interface (Power from VDD_P)
PWR_REG_EN/PIO[8]
CMOS bi-directional
G1
Enable for an external voltage regulator. Programmable active high or
active low. Also used as PIO[8], which is the default mode until the appro-
priate configuration bit is set. Tie to ground if not used.
TX_RX_SWITCH
CMOS output
J9
Output signal used to indicate the current state of the radio. This could be
used as a direction control for an external power amplifier.The polarity is
programmable with the default set as:
Low = Transmit mode
High = Receive mode
