Functional Description

The PMB2240 is a single-chip transmitter which includes a prescaler for the main oscillator signal and a fixed frequency PLL for the IF oscillator. The transmitter is designed for use in conjunction with the single-chip receiver PMB2405 and the CMOS PLL PMB2306.

The RF oscillator signal can be supplied from an external source symmetrically as well as unsymmetrically. The oscillator signal can be buffered for off-chip use, depending on a separate power down pin.

There is a prescaler by 64/65 for the RF oscillator signal on chip, which can be used to implement a PLL together with the PMB2306.
