802.11 A/B/G/N Direct Conversion Transceiver

The 802.11 a/b/g/n direct conversion transceiver IP core supports OFDM, WLAN and ISM applications. Covering both the 2.4-2.5GHz band and extended world band frequencies 4.9GHz-5.875GHz, the IQ architecture integrates all of the required radio functions incorporating the complete Rx, Tx and synthesizer and data converter subsystems in a 130nm RF CMOS IP core.

An integrated FRAC-N synthesizer can be configured for a wide range of low cost crystal frequencies from 20MHz-40MHz and provides a reference clock output for ease of integration in System On Chip (SoC) applications.

A Flexible Radio Control Interface can be optimized for embedded SoC applications.
