F antenna is used for low cost. Only the RFIN port of the MC13201 is required because the differential
port is bi-directional and uses the on-chip T/R switch. Matching to near 50 Ohms is accomplished with L1,
L2, L3, and the traces on the PCB. A balun transforms the differential signal to single-ended to interface
with the F antenna.
The proper DC bias to the RFIN_x (PAO_x) pins is provided through the balun. The CT_Bias pin provides
the proper bias voltage point to the balun depending on operation, that is, CT_Bias is at VDDA voltage for
transmit and is at ground for receive. CT_Bias is switched between these two voltages based on the
operation. Capacitor C2 provides some high frequency bypass to the DC bias point. The L3/C1 network
provides a simple bandpass filter to limit out-of-band harmonics from the transmitter.
