MAXIM MAX1473 handbook(1)
The MAX1473 is a fully integrated low-power CMOS super-heterodyne receiver that is ideal for receiving amplitude-shift-keyed (ASK) data in the 300MHz to 450MHz frequency range. It has a signal range from -114dBm to 0dBm. With few external components and a low-current power-down mode, it is suitable for cost- and power-sensitive applications in the automotive and consumer markets. The chip consists of a low-noise amplifier (LNA), a fully differential image-rejection mixer, an on-chip phase-locked loop (PLL) with integrated voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a 10.7MHz IF limiting amplifier stage with received-signal-strength indicator (RSSI), and analog baseband data-recovery circuitry. The MAX1473 also has a discrete one-step automatic gain control (AGC) that drops the LNA gain by 35dB when the RF input signal is greater than -57dBm. The MAX1473 is available in 28-pin TSSOP and 32-pin thin QFN packages. Both versions are specified for the extended (-40°C to +85°C) temperature range. Applications include automotive remote keyless entry, security systems, garage door openers, home automation, remote controls, local telemetry, and wireless sensor systems.
