Demodulation stage

The first stage performs demodulation of the tag subcarrier response signal, superimposed

on the HF field carrier. Two different blocks are implemented for the AM demodulation:



peak detector



AM/I or PM/Q demodulator mixer.

The choice of the used demodulator is made by the Receiver configuration register 2 bit

amd_sel.

The peak detector performs AM demodulation using a peak follower. Both the positive and

negative peaks are tracked to suppress any common mode signals. Its demodulation gain is

G = 0.7 and the input is taken from RFI1 demodulator input only.

The AM demodulator mixer uses synchronous rectification of both receiver inputs (RFI1 and

RFI2). Its gain is G = 0.55. The PM demodulation is also done by a mixer. The PM

demodulator mixer has differential outputs with 60 mV differential signal for 1% phase

change (16.67 mV / °).

The I/Q demodulation is composed of two mixer circuits, driven with a 90° shifted local

oscillator (LO) signals derived from the crystal oscillator. The outputs of the two mixers are

connected to two equal base band reception chains and to the decoding logic.
