24-GHz IQ Transceiver TRXˍ024ˍ046 Data Sheet Version 1.3 06-10-2021 Application Circuit Schematic Application Circuit for Band Switching Power Cycling It is possible to reduce power consumption by power cycling the radar front end. Rapid power cycling with voltage rise times between 10 and 100 µs is possible. At power-up, it must be ensured that no input signal is driven high before the supply voltage is stable. At power-down, all input signals must be pulled low before the supply voltage is switched off.

24-GHz IQ Transceiver TRXˍ024ˍ046 Data Sheet Version 1.3 06-10-2021 Input / Output Stages The following figures show the simplified circuits of the input and output stages. It is important that the voltage applied to the input pins never exceeds VCC by more than 0.3 V. Otherwise, the supply current may be conducted through the upper ESD protection diode connected at the pin. RXin and TXout are DC-grounded.

As an example, input combination ‘0101’ with d3, d1 = 3.3 V and d2, d0 = 0 includes the 24-GHz ISM band. However, the designer should take into account that output frequency bands may shift from chip to chip, and same switch settings may not give the same output...
