ADVANCE INFORMATION
Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum
Baseband Processor
Features
• Complete DSSS Baseband Processor
The Intersil HFA3861A Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)
baseband processor is part of the
• Processing Gain. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .FCC Compliant
• Programmable Data Rate . . . . . . . 1, 2, 5.5, and 11Mbps
• Ultra Small Package. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 x 10mm
• Single Supply Operation (44MHz Max) . . . . . 2.7V to 3.6V
• Modulation Methods. . . . . . . . DBPSK, DQPSK, and CCK
• Supports Full or Half Duplex Operations
PRISM® 2.4GHz radio chipset, and contains all the
functions necessary for a full or half duplex packet baseband
transceiver.
The HFA3861A has on-board A/D’s for analog I and Q inputs
and outputs, for which the HFA3783 IF QMODEM is
recommended. Differential phase shift keying modulation
schemes DBPSK and DQPSK, with data scrambling
capability, are available along with Complementary Code
Keying to provide a variety of data rates. Built-in flexibility
allows the HFA3861A to be configured through a general
purpose control bus, for a range of applications. Both
Receive and Transmit AGC functions with 7-bit AGC control
obtain maximum performance in the analog portions of the
transceiver. The HFA3861A is housed in a thin plastic quad
flat package (TQFP) suitable for PCMCIA board
applications.
• On-Chip A/D and D/A Converters for I/Q Data (6-Bit,
22MSPS), AGC, and Adaptive Power Control (7-Bit)
• Targeted for Multipath Delay Spreads ~50ns
• Supports Short Preamble Acquisition
• Supports Antenna Diversity
Applications
• Enterprise WLAN Systems

• DSSS PCMCIA Wireless Transceiver
• Spread Spectrum WLAN RF Modems
• TDMA Packet Protocol Radios
• Part 15 Compliant Radio Links
• Portable PDA/Notebook Computer
• Wireless Digital Audio, Video, Multimedia
• PCN/Wireless PBX
