© 2011 Microchip Technology Inc. Preliminary DS00000A-page  7MRF24J40MC 1.3 OperationThe MRF24J40MC module is based on the Microchip Technology MRF24J40 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 RF Transceiver IC. Serial communication and configuration are documented in the “MRF24J40 Data Sheet” (DS39776).This section emphasizes operational settings that are unique to the MRF24J40MC module design that must be followed for proper operation.1.3.1 PA/LNA CONTROLOperation of the PA U3 and LNA U2 is controlled by the MRF24J40 internal RF state machine through RF switches, U1 and U4, and the GPIO1 and GPIO2 pins on the MRF24J40. Figure 1-5 shows the PA/LNA block diagram.  Figure 2-2 is the schematic diagram for the module.The internal RF state machine is configured for the PA/LNA mode by setting TESTMODE (0x22<2:0>) = 111. Pins GPIO1 and GPIO2 control the RF switches, PA and LNA automatically when the MRF24J40 receives and transmits data.Voltage regulator U5 supplies a regulated 2.2V to the PA. This provides a stable voltage to the PA over the VINvoltage range of the module. U5 is enabled or shutdown from GPIO3. Ensure that the GPIO3 direction has been set to output (TRISGP3 (0x34<3>) = 1). Setting a logic high (GPIO3 (0x33<3>) = 1) enables the voltage regulator and supplies voltage to the PA. Setting a logic low (GPIO3 (0x33<3>) = 0) will shutdown the voltage regulator, disabling the PA, and provides the lowest shutdown current.FIGURE 1-5: PA/LNA BLOCK DIAGRAMNote: A complete explanation of the operation of the PA/LNA control is documented in the “MRF24J40 Data Sheet” (DS39776), Section 4.2 “External PA/LNA Control”.MRF24J40GPIO1GPIO2U.FLConnectorBalunRFPRFNPAuPG2250T5NLNAPARF SwitchUPG2179TBRF SwitchUPG2179TBLNAuPC8233TKV2 V1 V2 V1GPIO3Voltage RegulatorTC1187VCT713VOUTSHDN50 ohm
MRF24J40MC DS00000A-page  8 Preliminary © 2011 Microchip Technology Inc.1.3.2 ENERGY DETECTION (ED)Before performing an energy detection (see Section 3.6.1 “RSSI Firmware Request (RSSI Mode 1)” in the “MRF24J40 Data Sheet” (DS39776)), perform the following steps:1. Configure the internal RF state machine to normal operation (TESTMODE (0x22F<2:0>) = 000).2. Configure GPIO2 and GPIO1 direction for output (TRISGP2 (0x34<2>) = 1 and TRISGP1 (0x34<1>) = 1).3. Set GPIO2 (0x33<2>) = 1 and GPIO1 (0x32<1>) = 0. This enables the LNA and disables the PA.4. Perform the energy detection following the steps in Section 3.6.1 “RSSI Firmware Request (RSSI Mode 1)” in the “MRF24J40 Data Sheet”(DS39776).1.3.3 SLEEPTo get the lowest power consumption from the MRF24J40MC module during Sleep, it is necessary to disable the PA, PA voltage regulator and LNA. To do this, perform the following steps:1. Configure the internal RF state machine to normal operation (TESTMODE (0x22F<2:0>) = 000).2. Configure the GPIO3, GPIO2 and GPIO1 direction for output (TRISGP3 (0x34<3>) = 1, TRISGP2 (0x34<2>) = 1 and TRISGP1 (0x34<1>) = 1).3. Set GPIO2 (0x33<2>) = 0 and GPIO1 (0x32<1>) = 0. This disables the LNA and the PA.4. Set GPIO3 (0x33<3>) = 0. This shuts down the voltage regulator U5 that supplies 2.2 volts to the PA.5. Put the MRF24J40 to Sleep following the steps in the “MRF24J40 Data Sheet” (DS39776).When waking the module, re-enable the PA/LNA mode.Note: The LNA will amplify the received signal. The RSSI value will include the receive signal strength plus the LNA amplification.

Preliminary DS00000A-page  11MRF24J40MC 2.0 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONThe MRF24J40MC  is a 2.4 GHz IEEE Std. 802.15.4™ compliant surface mount module with integrated crystal, internal voltage regulator, matching circuitry, power amplifier, low noise amplifier with 50Ω external antenna connector. The MRF24J40MC  module interfaces to many popular Microchip PIC microcontrollers through a 4-wire SPI Interface, interrupt, wake, reset, power and ground. An example application schematic is illustrated in Figure 2-1.Serial communications and register definitions for the MRF24J40MC  module are documented in the “MRF24J40 IEEE 802.15.4™ 2.4 GHz RF Transceiver Data Sheet” (DS39776). Refer to the “MRF24J40 Data Sheet” for specific serial interface protocol and register definitions. Also, see Section 1.3, Operation for specific register settings that are unique to the MRF24J40MC module.2.1 External AntennaThe MRF24J40MC module has a 50Ω ultra miniature coaxial (U.FL) connector to connect to an external 2.4 GHz antenna. The choice of antenna is limited to the antenna types the module has been tested with. Refer to the respective country in Section 3.0,  Regulatory Approval for a list of tested and approved antenna types that may be used with the MRF24J40MC module.2.2 Module SchematicA schematic diagram of the module is illustrated in Figure 2-2 and the Bill of Materials (BOM) is shown in Table 2-1.The MRF24J40MC  module is based on the Microchip Technology MRF24J40 IEEE 802.15.4™ 2.4 GHz RF Transceiver IC (U6). The Serial I/O (SCK, SDI, SDO and CS), RESET, WAKE and INT pins are brought out to the module pins. The SDO signal is tri-state buffered by U7 to solve a silicon errata, where the SDO signal does not release to a high-impedance state, after the CS pin returns to its inactive state. Crystal, X1, is a 20 MHz crystal with a frequency tolerance of ±10 ppm @ 25°C to meet the IEEE Std. 802.15.4 symbol rate tolerance of ±40 ppm.A balun is formed by components: L11, L12, L13, C25, C27 and C31. L12 is also a pull-up for the RFP and RFN pins on the MRF24J40. C25 also acts as a DC block capacitor. RF switches, U1 and U2, switch between the power amplifier, U3, when transmitting and low noise amplifier, U2, when receiving. A band-pass filter FL1 is placed after the PA U3 to reduce harmonics. The remaining passive components provide bias and decoupling. FIGURE 2-1: MRF24J40MC APPLICATION SCHEMATIC
