General Description

The MAX1471 low-power, CMOS, superheterodyne, RF

dual-channel receiver is designed to receive both ampli-

tude-shift-keyed (ASK) and frequency-shift-keyed (FSK)

data without reconfiguring the device or introducing any

time delay normally associated with changing modula-

tion schemes. The MAX1471 requires few external com-

ponents to realize a complete wireless RF digital data

receiver for the 300MHz to 450MHz ISM bands.

The MAX1471 includes all the active components

required in a superheterodyne receiver including: a low-

noise amplifier (LNA), an image-reject (IR) mixer, a fully

integrated phase-locked loop (PLL), local oscillator

(LO), 10.7MHz IF limiting amplifier with received-signal-

strength indicator (RSSI), low-noise FM demodulator,

and a 3V voltage regulator. Differential peak-detecting

data demodulators are included for both the FSK and

ASK analog baseband data recovery. The MAX1471

includes a discontinuous receive (DRX) mode for low-

power operation, which is configured through a serial

interface bus.

The MAX1471 is available in a 32-pin thin QFN package

and is specified over the automotive -40°C to +125°C

temperature range.

MAX1471 315MHz/434MHz Low-Power, 3V/5V ASK/FSK Superheterodyne Receiver Detailed Description The MAX1471 CMOS superheterodyne receiver and a few external components provide a complete ASK/FSK receive chain from the antenna to the digital output data. Depending on signal power and component selection, data rates as high as 33kbps using Manchester Code (66kbps nonreturn to zero) can be achieved. The MAX1471 is designed to receive binary FSK or ASK data on a 300MHz to 450MHz carrier.
PAGE 11
315MHz/434MHz Low-Power, 3V/5V ASK/FSK Superheterodyne Receiver FSK Demodulator The FSK demodulator uses an integrated 10.7MHz PLL that tracks the input RF modulation and determines the difference between frequencies as logic-level ones and zeros. The PLL is illustrated in Figure 1. The input to the PLL comes from the output of the IF limiting amplifiers. The PLL control voltage responds to changes in the frequency of the input signal with a nominal gain of 2.2mV/kHz.

MAX1471 315MHz/434MHz Low-Power, 3V/5V ASK/FSK Superheterodyne Receiver Serial Control Interface Communication Protocol The MAX1471 can use a 4-wire interface or a 3-wire interface (default). In both cases, the data input must follow the timing diagrams shown in Figures 8 and 9. Note that the DIO line must be held LOW while CS is high. This is to prevent the MAX1471 from entering discontinuous receive mode if the DRX bit is high.
