Pin Name
Pin Function
1
SEL0
Bandwidth Selection Bit 0 (Input): Configure with SEL1 to set the desired
demodulator filter bandwidth. See Table 1. Internally pulled-up to VDDRF.

1
VSSRF
RF [Analog] Return (Input): Ground return to the RF section power supply.
See "Application Information" for bypass capacitor details.
3
2
ANT
Antenna (Input): High-impedance, internally ac coupled receiver input.
Connect this pin to the receive antenna. This FET gate input has approximately
2pF of shunt (parasitic) capacitance. See "Applications Information"
for optional band-pass filter information.
5
3
VDDRF
RF [Analog] Supply (Input): Positive supply input for the RF section of the
IC. VDDBB and VDDRF should be connected together directly at the IC
pins. Connect a low ESL, low ESR decoupling capacitor from this pin to
VSSRF, as short as possible.
6
VDDBB
Base-Band [Digital] Supply (Input): Positive supply input for the baseband
section of the IC. VDDBB and VDDRF should be connected together at the
IC pins.
7
4
CTH
[Data Slicing] Threshold Capacitor (External Component): Capacitor
extracts the dc average value from the demodulated waveform which
becomes the reference for the internal data slicing comparator. See "Applications
Information" for selection.
8
NC
not internally connected
9
VSSBB
Base-Band [Digital] Return (Input): Ground return to the baseband section
power supply. See "Application Information" for bypass capacitor and layout
details.
10
5
DO
Negative RF power output to drive one side of the transmit antenna.
11
6
SHUT
Shutdown (Input): Shutdown-mode logic-level control input. Pull low to
enable the receiver. This input has an internal pulled-up to VDDRF.
12
WAKEB
Wakeup (Output): Active-low output that indicates detection of an incoming
RF signal. Signal is determined by monitoring for data preamble. CMOSlevel
compatible.
13
7
CAGC
AGC Capacitor (External Component): Integrating capacitor for on-chip
AGC (automatic gain control). The decay/attack time-constant () ratio is
nominally 10:1. See "Applications Information" for capacitor selection.
14
SEL1
Bandwidth Selection Bit 1 (Input): Configure with SEL0, programs to set the
desired demodulator filter bandwidth. See Table 1. Internally pulled-up to
VDDRF.
15
8
REFOSC
Reference Oscillator (External Component or Input): Timing reference for
on-chip tuning and alignment. Connect either a ceramic resonator or crystal
(mode dependent, see "Application Information"). between this pin and
VSSBB, or drive the input with an ac-coupled 0.5Vpp input clock.
16
SWEN
Sweep-Mode Enable (Input): Sweep- or fixed-mode operation control input.
When VSWEN is high, the MICRF004 is in sweep mode; when SWEN is
low, the receiver operates as a conventional single-conversion superheterodyne
receiver. This pin is internally pulled-up to VDDRF.

Description

The MICRF004 QwikRadio™ VHF receiver is a single-chip OOK (on-off keyed) receiver IC for remote wireless applications. This device is a true single-chip, "antenna-in, data-out" device. All RF and IF tuning is accomplished automatically within the IC which eliminates manual tuning production costs and results in a highly reliable, extremely low-cost solution for high-volume wireless applications. The MICRF004 is extremely easy to apply, minimizing design and production costs, and improving time to market. The MICRF004 provides two fundamental modes of operation, fixed and sweep.

In fixed mode, the device functions as a conventional superheterodyne receiver with an internal local oscillator operating at a single frequency based on an external reference crystal or clock. Fixed mode is for use with accurately-controlled transmitters utilizing crystal or SAW (surface acoustic wave) resonators.

In sweep mode, the MICRF004 sweeps the internal local oscillator at rates greater than the baseband data rate. This effectively broadens the RF bandwidth of the receiver to a value equivalent to conventional superregenerative receivers. This allows the MICRF004 to operate with less expensive LC transmitters without additional components or tuning, even though the receiver topology is still superheterodyne. In this mode the reference crystal can be replaced with a less expensive ±0.5% ceramic resonator.

The MICRF004 features a shutdown control, which may be used for duty-cycled operation, and a wake-up output, which provides a logical indication of an incoming RF signal. These features make the MICRF004 ideal for low- and ultra-lowpower applications, such as RKE (remote keyless entry) and RFID (RF identification).

Since all post-detection (demodulator) data filtering is provided on the MICRF004, no external filters are required. One of the four internal filter bandwidths must be externally selected based on data rate and code modulation format. Bandwidths range of MICRF004 in binary steps, from 0.55kHz tto 4.4kHz (sweep mode) or 1.1kHz to 8.8kHz (fixed mode).
