Description
The CC1021 device is a true single-chip UHF transceiver designed for very low power and very low
voltage wireless applications. The circuit is mainly intended for the ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical)
and SRD (Short Range Device) frequency bands at 433 MHz, 868 MHz, and 915 MHz, but can easily be
programmed for multichannel operation at other frequencies in the 402- to 470-MHz and 804- to 930-MHz
range.
The CC1021 device is especially suited for narrowband systems with channel spacing of 50 kHz and
higher complying with EN 300 220 and CC CFR47 part 15.
The CC1021 device main operating parameters can be programmed through a serial bus, thus making the
CC1021 device a very flexible and easy to use transceiver.
In a typical system, the CC1021 device is used together with a microcontroller and a few external passive
components.

  • Page 15: Detailed Description

    Figure 5-1. Only signal pins are shown. The CC1021 device features a low-IF receiver. The received RF signal is amplified by the low-noise amplifier (LNA and LNA2) and down-converted in quadrature (I and Q) to the intermediate frequency (IF). At IF, the I/Q signal is complex filtered and amplified, and then digitized by the ADCs. Automatic gain control, fine channel filtering, demodulation and bit synchronization is performed digitally.

PDO is used as the data output and must be configured as an input by the microcontroller.

    In transmit mode, the CC1021 device provides the data clock at DCLK and DIO is used as data input. Data is clocked into the CC1021 device at the rising edge of DCLK. The data is modulated at RF without encoding.
  • Page 21 In the Synchronous Manchester encoded mode, the CC1021 device uses Manchester coding when modulating the data. The CC1021 device also performs the data decoding and synchronization. The Manchester code is based on transitions; a “0” is encoded as a low-to-high transition, a “1” is encoded as a high-to-low transition.
