PBA 313 01 BluetoothTM Radio Key Features * RF output power class 2 * Compliant with Bluetooth specification 1.0b PBA 313 01/2 1.1b PBA 313 01/3 * Forms a complete radio with only - an antenna - a crystal or existing - 13 MHz reference frequency * Small outline BGA-package (10.2x14.0x1.6 mm) * Requires no external shielding Description The Bluetooth Radio from Ericsson Microelectronics is a short-range microwave frequency radio transceiver for Bluetooth communication links. Provided in a compact ceramic BGA package, the Bluetooth Radio is intended primarily for embedded applications and applications requiring a flexible form factor. No external shield is required due to the innovative self-shielding design. This solution enables extremely low hight implementations. With the addition of only an antenna, a 13 MHz reference frequency crystal, and digital control functionality, the PBA 313 01 forms a complete radio. As a result, designers can benefit from a pre-tested and ready-to-use device, providing a robust Bluetooth Radio function in the final OEM application. The Bluetooth Radio offers a combination of compact size, low power consumption, and cost effective assembly - with the `flip chip' radio IC and some major components of the radio integrated into the ceramic carrier. This makes it ideal for Bluetooth communications applications in mobile phones, modems, laptop computers and other portable equipment. The BLUETOOTH trademarks are owned by Bluetooth SIG, Inc., USA. E Block diagram Antenna Interface Switch Antenna Filter RX Balun Bluetooth RF IC LP Filter TX Balun Data and Control Interface VCO Tank Clock Reference Hardware PBA 313 01 is a short-range microwave frequency radio transciever for Bluetooth communication links that are designed to operate in the globally available unlicensed ISM frequency band, 2.4-2.5 GHz. Fast frequency hopping (1600 channel hops/s) with 79 channels (2.402 to 2.480 GHz) and a maximum TX & RX bit rate of 1 Mbit/s. The implemented modulation technique is Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying (GFSK) with a BT product of 0.5. The channel bandwidth is 1 MHz and the frequency deviation is between 140 and 175 kHz. Control interface Antenna interface Ordering information The Bluetooth Radio is built around a BiCMOS ASIC. Antenna filter, RX and TX baluns are all integrated into the ceramic carrier. Operating from a 2.8 V supply voltage, the device has a typical supply current requirement of only 40 mA (receive mode) or 35 mA (transmit mode), thus helping to extend battery life for portable equipment. A standby mode provides further power savings. Operation together with a Bluetooth Baseband using Ericsson Bluetooth Core is recommended. 50 Bluetooth ISM band antenna (2.4-2.5 GHz). The Bluetooth Radio from Ericsson Microelectronics may be ordered as: PBA 313 01/2 for BT specification 1.0b and PBA 313 01/3 for BT specification 1.1.
