1. Description
The ATA3742 is a multi-chip PLL receiver device supplied in an SO20 package. It has
been specially developed for the demands of RF low-cost data transmission systems
with data rates from 1 kBaud to 10 kBaud (1 kBaud to 3.2 kBaud for FSK) in
Manchester or Bi-phase code. The receiver is well-suited to operate with Atmel®’s PLL
RF transmitter IC U2741B. Its main applications in the area of wireless control are
telemetering, security technology, tire-pressure monitoring and keyless-entry sys-
tems. It can be used in the frequency receiving range of f0 = 300 MHz to 450 MHz for
ASK or FSK data transmission. All the statements made in this datasheet refer both to
433.92 MHz and 315 MHz applications.

3. RF Front End
The RF front end of the receiver is a heterodyne configuration that converts the input signal into
a 1 MHz IF signal. As seen in Figure 1-2 on page 2, the front end consists of an LNA (low noise
amplifier), LO (local oscillator), a mixer and an RF amplifier.
The LO generates the carrier frequency for the mixer via a PLL synthesizer. The XTO (crystal
oscillator) generates the reference frequency fXTO. The VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator) gen-
erates the drive voltage frequency fLO for the mixer. fLO is dependent on the voltage at pin LF. fLO
is divided by a factor of 64. The divided frequency is compared to fXTO by the phase frequency
detector. The current output of the phase frequency detector is connected to a passive loop filter
and thereby generates the control voltage VLF for the VCO. By means of that configuration, VLF
is controlled in a way that fLO / 64 is equal to fXTO. If fLO is determined, fXTO can be calculated
using the following formula:
fXTO = fLO / 64
The XTO is a one-pin oscillator that operates at the series resonance of the quartz crystal. The
crystal should be connected to GND via the capacitor CL according to Figure 3-1. The value of
that capacitor is recommended by the crystal supplier. The value of CL should be optimized for
the individual board layout to achieve the exact value of fXTO and hereby of fLO. When designing
the system in terms of receiving bandwidth, the accuracy of the crystal and the XTO must be
considered.

The passive loop filter connected to pin LF is designed for a loop bandwidth of BLoop = 100 kHz.
This value for BLoop exhibits the best possible noise performance of the LO. Figure 3-1 shows
the appropriate loop filter components to achieve the desired loop bandwidth. If the filter compo-
nents are changed for any reason, please note that the maximum capacitive load at pin LF is
limited. If the capacitive load is exceeded, a bit check may no longer be possible since fLO can-
not settle in time before the bit check starts to evaluate the incoming data stream. In that case,
self-polling will also not work.
fLO is determined by the RF input frequency fRF and the IF frequency fIF using the following
formula:
fLO = fRF – fIF
4
ATA3742
4900B–RKE–11/07
ATA3742
To determine fLO, the construction of the IF filter must be considered at this point. The nominal IF
frequency is fIF = 1 MHz. To achieve a good accuracy of the filter's corner frequencies, the filter
is tuned by the crystal frequency fXTO. This means that there is a fixed relation between fIF and
fLO that depends on the logic level at pin MODE. This is described by the following formulas:
fLO
MODE = 0 (USA) fIF = ---------
314
fLO
MODE = 1 (Europe) fIF = -----------------
432.92
The relation is designed to achieve the nominal IF frequency of fIF = 1 MHz for most applica-
tions. For applications where fRF = 315 MHz, MODE must be set to “0”. In the case of
fRF = 433.92 MHz, MODE must be set to “1”. For other RF frequencies, fIF is not equal to 1 MHz.
fIF is then dependent on the logical level at pin MODE and on fRF. Table 3-1 summarizes the dif-
ferent conditions.
The RF input either from an antenna or from a generator must be transformed to the RF input
pin LNA_IN. The input impedance of that pin is provided in the electrical parameters. The para-
sitic board inductances and capacitances also influence the input matching. The RF receiver
ATA3742 exhibits its highest sensitivity at the best signal-to-noise ratio in the LNA. Hence, noise
matching is the best choice for designing the transformation network.
A good practice when designing the network is to start with power matching. From that starting
point, the values of the components can be varied to some extent to achieve the best sensitivity.
If a SAW is implemented into the input network, a mirror frequency suppression of ∆PRef = 40 dB
can be achieved. There are SAWs available that exhibit a notch at ∆f = 2 MHz. These SAWs
work best for an intermediate frequency of IF = 1 MHz. The selectivity of the receiver is also
improved by using a SAW. In typical automotive applications, a SAW is used.
Figure 3-2 on page 6 shows a typical input matching network for fRF = 315 MHz and
fRF = 433.92 MHz using a SAW. Figure 3-3 on page 6 illustrates input matching to 50Ω without a
SAW. The input matching networks shown in Figure 3-3 on page 6 are the reference networks
for the parameters given in the “Electrical Characteristics” on page 26.

Please note that for all coupling conditions (see Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3), the bond wire induc-
tivity of the LNA ground is compensated. C3 forms a series resonance circuit together with the
bond wire. L = 25 nH is a feed inductor to establish a DC path. Its value is not critical but must be
large enough not to detune the series resonance circuit. For cost reduction, this inductor can be
easily printed on the PCB. This configuration improves the sensitivity of the receiver by about
1 dB to 2 dB.

4. Analog Signal Processing
4.1
IF Amplifier
The signals coming from the RF front end are filtered by the fully integrated 4th-order IF filter.
The IF center frequency is fIF = 1 MHz for applications where fRF = 315 MHz or
fRF = 433.92 MHz is used. For other RF input frequencies, see Table 3-1 on page 5 to determine
the center frequency.
The receiver ATA3742-M3 employs an IF bandwidth of BIF = 600 kHz and can be used together
with the U2741B in FSK and ASK mode.
4.2
RSSI Amplifier
The subsequent RSSI amplifier enhances the output signal of the IF amplifier before it is fed into
the demodulator. The dynamic range of this amplifier is ∆RRSSI = 60 dB. If the RSSI amplifier is
operated within its linear range, the best signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is maintained in ASK mode.
If the dynamic range is exceeded by the transmitter signal, the SNR is defined by the ratio of the
maximum RSSI output voltage and the RSSI output voltage due to a disturber. The dynamic
range of the RSSI amplifier is exceeded if the RF input signal is about 60 dB higher compared to
the RF input signal at full sensitivity.
In FSK mode, the SNR is not affected by the dynamic range of the RSSI amplifier.
The output voltage of the RSSI amplifier is internally compared to a threshold voltage VTh_red
.
V
Th_red is determined by the value of the external resistor RSense. RSense is connected between
pin SENS and GND or VS. The output of the comparator is fed into the digital control logic. By
this means, it is possible to operate the receiver at a lower sensitivity.
4.3
Pin RSSI
The output voltage of the RSSI amplifier (VRSSI) is available at pin RSSI. Using the RSSI output
signal, the signal strength of different transmitters can be distinguished.
The usable input-power range PRef is –100 dBm to –55 dBm. The temperature coefficient TC of
V
RSSI is typically –2.2 mV/K. Due to TC and gain tolerance, it is not possible to find out the abso-
lute level of each transmitter, but the level differences can be used to distinguish several
transmitters. As illustrated in Figure 4-2 on page 8, the RSSI output voltage is not constant over
the temperature range. Figure 4-1 illustrates an application that realizes a temperature compen-
sation of VRSSI
.

If RSense is connected to VS, the receiver operates at a lower sensitivity. The reduced sensitivity
is defined by the value of RSense, the maximum sensitivity by the signal-to-noise ratio of the LNA
input. The reduced sensitivity is dependent on the signal strength at the output of the RSSI
amplifier.
Since different RF input networks may exhibit slightly different values for the LNA gain, the sen-
sitivity values given in the electrical characteristics refer to a specific input matching. This
matching is illustrated in Figure 3-3 on page 6 and exhibits the best possible sensitivity.

RSense can be connected to VS or GND via a microcontroller. The receiver can be switched from
full sensitivity to reduced sensitivity or vice versa at any time. In polling mode, the receiver will
not wake up if the RF input signal does not exceed the selected sensitivity. If the receiver is
already active, the data stream at pin DATA will disappear when the input signal is lower than
defined by the reduced sensitivity. Instead of the data stream, the pattern shown in Figure 4-3 is
issued at pin DATA to indicate that the receiver is still active.

FSK/ASK Demodulator and Data Filter
The signal coming from the RSSI amplifier is converted into the raw data signal by the ASK/FSK
demodulator. The operating mode of the demodulator is set via pin ASK/FSK. Logic “L” sets the
demodulator to FSK mode; logic “H” sets it into ASK mode.
In ASK mode, an automatic threshold control circuit (ATC) is employed to set the detection refer-
ence voltage to a value where a good signal-to-noise ratio is achieved. This circuit also implies
the effective suppression of any kind of inband noise signals or competing transmitters. If the
SNR exceeds 10 dB, the data signal can be detected properly.
The FSK demodulator is intended to be used for an FSK deviation of ∆f ≥ 20 kHz. Lower values
may be used, but the sensitivity of the receiver will be reduced. The minimum usable deviation is
dependent on the selected baud rate. In FSK mode, only BR_Range0 and BR_Range1 are
available. In FSK mode, the data signal can be detected if the SNR exceeds 2 dB.
The output signal of the demodulator is filtered by the data filter before it is fed into the digital
signal processing circuit. The data filter improves the SNR as its pass band can be adopted to
the characteristics of the data signal. The data filter consists of a 1st-order high-pass and a
1st-order low-pass filter.
The high-pass filter cut-off frequency is defined by an external capacitor connected to pin
CDEM. The cut-off frequency of the high-pass filter is defined by the following formula:
1
fcu_DF = ------------------------------------------------------------
2 × π × 30 kΩ× CDEM
In self-polling mode, the data filter must settle very rapidly to achieve a low current consumption.
Therefore, CDEM cannot be increased to very high values if self-polling is used. On the other
hand, CDEM must be large enough to meet the data filter requirements according to the data
signal. Recommended values for CDEM are given in “Electrical Characteristics” on page 26. The
values are slightly different for ASK and FSK mode.
The cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter is defined by the selected baud rate range
(BR_Range). BR_Range is defined in the OPMODE register (refer to Section “Configuration of
the Receiver” on page 20). BR_Range must be set in accordance to the used baud rate.
The ATA3742 is designed to operate with data coding where the DC level of the data signal is
50%. This is valid for Manchester and Bi-phase coding. If other modulation schemes are used,
the DC level should always remain within the range of VDC_min = 33% and VDC_max = 66%. The
sensitivity may be reduced by up to 1.5 dB in that condition.
9
4900B–RKE–11/07
Each BR_Range is also defined by a minimum and a maximum edge-to-edge time (tee_sig).
These limits are defined in the electrical characteristics. They should not be exceeded to main-
tain full sensitivity of the receiver.
4.5
Receiving Characteristics
The RF receiver ATA3742 can be operated with and without a SAW front-end filter. In a typical
automotive application, a SAW filter is used to achieve better selectivity. The selectivity with and
without a SAW front-end filter is illustrated in Figure 4-4 on page 10. This example relates to
ASK mode. FSK mode exhibits similar behavior. Note that the mirror frequency is reduced by
40 dB. The plots are printed relatively to the maximum sensitivity. If a SAW filter is used, an
insertion loss of about 4 dB must be considered.
When designing the system in terms of receiving bandwidth, the LO deviation must be consid-
ered as it also determines the IF center frequency. The total LO deviation is calculated to be the
sum of the deviation of the crystal and the XTO deviation of the ATA3742. Low-cost crystals are
specified to be within ±100 ppm. The XTO deviation of the ATA3742 is an additional deviation
due to the XTO circuit. This deviation is specified to be ±30 ppm. If a crystal of ±100 ppm is
used, the total deviation is ±130 ppm. Note that the receiving bandwidth and the IF-filter band-
width are equivalent in ASK mode but not in FSK mode.

5. Polling Circuit and Control Logic
The receiver is designed to consume less than 1 mA while being sensitive to signals from a cor-
responding transmitter. This is achieved via the polling circuit. This circuit enables the signal
path periodically for a short time. During this time, the bit check logic verifies the presence of a
valid transmitter signal. Only if a valid signal is detected does the receiver remain active and
transfer the data to the connected microcontroller. If there is no valid signal present, the receiver
is in sleep mode most of the time, resulting in low current consumption. This condition is called
polling mode. A connected microcontroller is disabled during that time.
All relevant parameters of the polling logic can be configured by the connected microcontroller.
This flexibility enables the user to meet the specifications in terms of current consumption, sys-
tem response time, data rate, etc.
Regarding the number of connection wires to the microcontroller, the receiver is very flexible. It
can be either operated by a single bi-directional line to save ports to the connected microcontrol-
ler, or it can be operated by up to three uni-directional ports.
5.1
Basic Clock Cycle of the Digital Circuitry
The complete timing of the digital circuitry and the analog filtering is derived from one clock.
According to Figure 5-1 on page 11, this clock cycle TClk is derived from the crystal oscillator
(XTO) in combination with a divider. The division factor is controlled by the logical state at pin
MODE. As described in Section “RF Front End” on page 4, the frequency of the crystal oscillator
(fXTO) is defined by the RF input signal (fRFin), which also defines the operating frequency of the
local oscillator (fLO).

Pin MODE can now be set in accordance with the desired clock cycle TClk. TClk controls the fol-
lowing application-relevant parameters:
• Timing of the polling circuit including bit check
• Timing of the analog and digital signal processing
• Timing of the register programming
• Frequency of the reset marker
• IF filter center frequency (fIF0
)
11
4900B–RKE–11/07
Most applications are dominated by two transmission frequencies: fSend = 315 MHz is mainly
used in the USA, fSend = 433.92 MHz in Europe. In order to ease the usage of all TClk-dependent
parameters, the electrical characteristics display three conditions for each parameter.
• Application USA (fXTO = 4.90625 MHz, MODE = L, TClk = 2.0383 µs)
• Application Europe (fXTO = 6.76438 MHz, MODE = H, TClk = 2.0697 µs)
• Other applications (TClk is dependent on fXTO and on the logical state of pin MODE. The
electrical characteristic is given as a function of TClk).
The clock cycle of some function blocks depends on the selected baud rate range (BR_Range)
which is defined in the OPMODE register. This clock cycle TXClk is defined by the following for-
mulas for further reference:
BR_Range =
BR_Range0:
BR_Range1:
BR_Range2:
BR_Range3:
TXClk = 8 × TClk
TXClk = 4 × TClk
TXClk = 2 × TClk
TXClk = 1 × TClk
5.2
Polling Mode
As seen in Figure 5-3 on page 15, the receiver stays in polling mode in a continuous cycle of
three different modes. In sleep mode, the signal processing circuitry is disabled for the time
period TSleep while consuming low current of IS = ISoff. During the start-up period, TStartup, all sig-
nal processing circuits are enabled and settled. In the following bit-check mode, the incoming
data stream is analyzed bit by bit, looking for a valid transmitter signal. If no valid signal is
present, the receiver is set back to sleep mode after the period TBitcheck. This period varies check
by check as it is a statistical process. An average value for TBitcheck is given in the electrical char-
acteristics. During TStartup and TBitcheck the current consumption is IS = ISon. The average current
consumption in polling mode is dependent on the duty cycle of the active mode and can be cal-
culated as:
I
Soff × TSleep + ISon × (TStartup + TBitcheck
ISpoll = ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sleep + TStartup + TBitcheck
)
T
During TSleep and TStartup, the receiver is not sensitive to a transmitter signal. To guarantee the
reception of a transmitted command, the transmitter must start the telegram with an adequate
preburst. The required length of the preburst is dependent on the polling parameters TSleep, TStar-
tup, TBitcheck and the startup time of a connected microcontroller (TStart,microcontroller). TBitcheck thus
depends on the actual bit rate and the number of bits (NBitcheck) to be tested.
The following formula indicates how to calculate the preburst length.
TPreburst ≥ TSleep + TStartup + TBitcheck + TStart_microcontroller

5.2.1
Sleep Mode
The length of period TSleep is defined by the 5-bit word Sleep of the OPMODE register, the exten-
sion factor XSleep according to Table 5-7 on page 22, and the basic clock cycle TClk. It is
calculated to be:
TSleep = Sleep × XSleep × 1024 × TClk
In US and European applications, the maximum value of TSleep is about 60 ms if XSleep is set
to “1”. The time resolution is about 2 ms in that case. The sleep time can be extended to almost
half a second by setting XSleep to 8. XSleep can be set to 8 by bit XSleepStd or by bit XSleepTemp
resulting in a different mode of action as described below:
,
X
SleepStd = 1 implies the standard extension factor. The sleep time is always extended.
X
SleepTemp = 1 implies the temporary extension factor. The extended sleep time is used as long
as every bit check is OK. If the bit check fails once, this bit is set back to “0”, automatically result-
ing in a regular sleep time. This functionality can be used to save current in the presence of a
modulated disturber similar to an expected transmitter signal. The connected microcontroller is
rarely activated in that condition. If the disturber disappears, the receiver switches back to regu-
lar polling and is again sensitive to appropriate transmitter signals.
The highest register value of Sleep sets the receiver into a permanent sleep condition (see
Table 5-6 on page 22). The receiver remains in that condition until another value for Sleep is
programmed into the OPMODE register. This function is desirable where several devices share
a single data line.
5.2.2
5.2.3
Bit-check Mode
In bit-check mode, the incoming data stream is examined to distinguish between a valid signal
from a corresponding transmitter and signals due to noise. This is done by subsequent time
frame checks where the distances between 2 signal edges are continuously compared to a pro-
grammable time window. The maximum count of these edge-to-edge tests, before the receiver
switches to receiving mode, is also programmable.
Configuring the Bit Check
Assuming a modulation scheme that contains 2 edges per bit, two time frame checks verify one
bit. This is valid for Manchester, bi-phase and most other modulation schemes. The maximum
count of bits to be checked can be set to 0, 3, 6 or 9 bits via the variable NBitcheck in the OPMODE
register. This implies 0, 6, 12 and 18 edge-to-edge checks respectively. If NBitcheck is set to a
higher value, the receiver is less likely to switch to receiving mode due to noise. In the presence
of a valid transmitter signal, the bit check takes less time if NBitcheck is set to a lower value. In poll-
ing mode, the bit check time is not dependent on NBitcheck. Figure 5-1 on page 11 shows an
example where 3 bits are tested successfully and the data signal is transferred to pin DATA.
According to Figure 5-2, the time window for the bit check is defined by two separate time limits.
If the edge-to-edge time tee is in between the lower bit check limit TLim_min and the upper bit
check limit TLim_max, the check will be continued. If tee is smaller than TLim_min or tee exceeds
TLim_max, the bit check will be terminated and the receiver switches to sleep mode.

For best noise immunity it is recommended to use a low span between TLim_min and TLim_max
.
This is achieved using a fixed frequency at a 50% duty cycle for the transmitter preburst. A
“11111...” or “10101...” sequence in Manchester or bi-phase is a good choice given this recom-
mendation. A good compromise between receiver sensitivity and susceptibility to noise is a time
window of ±25% regarding the expected edge-to-edge time tee. Using preburst patterns that con-
tain various edge-to-edge time periods, the bit check limits must be programmed according to
the required span.
The bit check limits are determined by means of the formula below:
TLim_min = Lim_min × TXClk
TLim_max = (Lim_max – 1) × TXClk
Lim_min and Lim_max are defined by a 5-bit word each within the LIMIT register.
Using the above formulas, Lim_min and Lim_max can be determined according to the required
TLim_min, TLim_max and TXClk. The time resolution when defining TLim_min and TLim_max is TXClk. The
minimum edge-to-edge time tee (tDATA_L_min, tDATA_H_min) is defined according to Section “Receiv-
ing Mode” on page 17. Due to this, the lower limit should be set to Lim_min ≥ 10. The maximum
value of the upper limit is Lim_max = 63.

Figure 5-5 on page 16 to Figure 5-7 illustrate the bit check for the default bit check limits
Lim_min = 14 and Lim_max = 24. When the IC is enabled, the signal processing circuits are
enabled during TStartup. The output of the ASK/FSK demodulator (Dem_out) is undefined during
that period. When the bit check becomes active, the bit check counter is clocked with the cycle
TXClk
.
Figure 5-5 on page 16 shows how the bit check proceeds if the bit check counter value CV_Lim
is within the limits defined by Lim_min and Lim_max at the occurrence of a signal edge. In Fig-
ure 5-6 on page 16, the bit check fails as the value CV_lim is lower than the limit Lim_min. The
bit check also fails if CV_Lim reaches Lim_max. This is illustrated in Figure 5-7.
5.2.4
Duration of the Bit Check
If no transmitter signal is present during the bit check, the output of the ASK/FSK demodulator
delivers random signals. The bit check is a statistical process and TBitcheck varies for each check.
Therefore, an average value for TBitcheck is given in the electrical characteristics. TBitcheck
depends on the selected baud rate range and on TClk. A higher baud rate range causes a lower
value for TBitcheck resulting in a lower current consumption in polling mode.
In the presence of a valid transmitter signal, TBitcheck is dependent on the frequency of that sig-
nal, fSig, and on the count of the checked bits, NBitcheck. A higher value for NBitcheck thereby results
in a longer period for TBitcheck requiring a higher value for the transmitter preburst TPreburst
.
5.3
Receiving Mode
If the bit check is successful for all bits specified by NBitcheck, the receiver switches to receiving
mode. As shown in Figure 5-4 on page 16, the internal data signal is switched to pin DATA in
that case. A connected microcontroller can be woken up by the negative edge at pin DATA. The
receiver stays in that condition until it is switched back to polling mode explicitly.
5.3.1
Digital Signal Processing
The data from the ASK/FSK demodulator (Dem_out) is digitally processed in different ways and
as a result converted into the output signal data. This processing depends on the selected baud
rate range (BR_Range). Figure 5-8 on page 18 illustrates how Dem_out is synchronized by the
extended clock cycle TXClk. This clock is also used for the bit check counter. Data can change its
state only after TXClk elapses. The edge-to-edge time period tee of the data signal as a result is
always an integral multiple of TXClk
.
The minimum time period between two edges of the data signal is limited to tee ≥ TDATA_min. This
implies an efficient suppression of spikes at the DATA output. At the same time, it limits the max-
imum frequency of edges at DATA. This eases the interrupt handling of a connected
microcontroller. TDATA_min is to some extent affected by the preceding edge-to-edge time interval
t
ee as illustrated in Figure 5-9. If tee is in between the specified bit check limits, the following level
is frozen for the time period TDATA_min = tmin1, in case of tee being outside that bit check limits
DATA_min = tmin2 is the relevant stable time period.
T
The maximum time period for DATA to be Low is limited to TDATA_L_max. This function ensures a
finite response time during programming or switching off the receiver via pin DATA. TDATA_L_max
is thereby longer than the maximum time period indicated by the transmitter data stream. Figure
5-10 gives an example where Dem_out remains Low after the receiver is in receiving mode.

5.3.2
Switching the Receiver Back to Sleep Mode
The receiver can be set back to polling mode via pin DATA or via pin ENABLE.
When using pin DATA, this pin must be pulled to Low for the period t1 by the connected micro-
controller. Figure 5-11 illustrates the timing of the OFF command (see also Figure 5-15 on page
24). The minimum value of t1 depends on BR_Range. The maximum value for t1 is not limited
but it is recommended not to exceed the specified value to prevent erasing the reset marker.
This item is explained in more detail in Section “Configuration of the Receiver” on page 20. Set-
ting the receiver to sleep mode via DATA is achieved by programming bit 1 of the OPMODE
register to be “1”. Only one sync pulse (t3) is issued.
The duration of the OFF command is determined by the sum of t1, t2 and t10. After the OFF com-
mand, the sleep time TSleep elapses. Note that the capacitive load at pin DATA is limited. The
resulting time constant τ together with an optional external pull-up resistor may not be exceeded
to ensure proper operation.
If the receiver is set to polling mode via pin ENABLE, an “L” pulse (TDoze) must be issued at that
pin. Figure 5-12 on page 20 illustrates the timing of that command. After the positive edge of this
pulse, the sleep time TSleep elapses. The receiver remains in sleep mode as long as ENABLE is
held to “L”. If the receiver is polled exclusively by a microcontroller, TSleep can be programmed to
“0” to enable an instantaneous response time. This command is a faster option than via pin
DATA, at the cost of an additional connection to the microcontroller.

Configuration of the Receiver
The ATA3742 receiver is configured via two 12-bit RAM registers called OPMODE and LIMIT.
The registers can be programmed by means of the bi-directional DATA port. If the register con-
tents have changed due to a voltage drop, this condition is indicated by a certain output pattern
called reset marker (RM). The receiver must be reprogrammed in that case. After a power-on
reset (POR), the registers are set to default mode. If the receiver is operated in default mode,
there is no need to program the registers.
Table 5-2 on page 21 shows the structure of the registers. Refering to Table 5-1, bit 1 defines if
the receiver is set back to polling mode via the OFF command (see Section “Receiving Mode”
on page 17), or if it is programmed. Bit 2 represents the register address. It selects the appropri-
ate register to be programmed.

5.4.1
Conservation of the Register Information
The ATA3742 has an integrated power-on reset (POR) and brown-out detection circuitry to pro-
vide a mechanism to preserve the RAM register information.
According to Figure 5-13, a power-on reset is generated if the supply voltage VS drops below the
threshold voltage VThReset. The default parameters are programmed into the configuration regis-
ters in that condition. Once VS exceeds VThReset, the POR is canceled after the minimum reset
period tRst. A POR is also generated when the supply voltage of the receiver is turned on.
To indicate that condition, the receiver displays a reset marker (RM) at pin DATA after a reset.
The RM is represented by the fixed frequency fRM at a 50% duty cycle. RM can be canceled via
an “L” pulse t1 at pin DATA. The RM implies the following characteristics:
• fRM is lower than the lowest feasible frequency of a data signal. This means, RM cannot be
misinterpreted by the connected microcontroller.
• If the receiver is set back to polling mode via pin DATA, RM cannot be cancelled by accident
if t1 is applied according to the proposal in the Section “Programming the Configuration
Register” on page 24.
By means of that mechanism, the receiver cannot lose its register information without communi-
cating that condition via the reset marker RM.

Programming the Configuration Register

ATA3742
To start programming, the serial data line DATA is pulled to “L” for the time period t1 by the
microcontroller. When DATA has been released, the receiver becomes the master device. When
the programming delay period t2 has elapsed, it emits 14 subsequent synchronization pulses
with the pulse length t3. After each of these pulses, a programming window occurs. The delay
until the program window starts is determined by t4, the duration is defined by t5. Within the pro-
gramming window, the individual bits are set. If the microcontroller pulls down pin DATA for the
time period t7 during t5, the bit is set to “0”. If no programming pulse t7 is issued, this bit is set to
“1”. All 14 bits are subsequently programmed in this way. The time frame to program a bit is
defined by t6.
Bit 14 is followed by the equivalent time window t9. During this window, the equivalent acknowl-
edge pulse t8 (E_Ack) occurs if the just-programmed mode word is equivalent to the mode word
that was already stored in that register. E_Ack should be used to verify that the mode word was
correctly transferred to the register. The register must be programmed twice in that case.
Programming of a register is possible both during sleep and active mode of the receiver.
During programming, the LNA, LO, low-pass filter, IF amplifier and the FSK/ASK Manchester
demodulator are disabled.
The programming start pulse t1 initiates the programming of the configuration registers. If bit 1 is
set to “1”, it represents the OFF command to set the receiver back to polling mode at the same
time. For the length of the programming start pulse t1, the following convention should be
considered:
• t1(min) < t1 < 1535 × TClk: [t1(min) is the minimum specified value for the relevant BR_Range]
Programming (or the OFF command) is initiated if the receiver is not in reset mode. If the
receiver is in reset mode, programming (or the OFF command) is not initiated, and the reset
marker (RM) is still present at pin DATA.
This period is generally used to switch the receiver to polling mode. In a reset condition, RM is
not canceled by accident.
• t1 > 5632 × TClk
Programming (or the OFF command) is initiated in any case. RM is canceled if present.
This period is used if the connected microcontroller detected RM. If a configuration register is
programmed, this time period for t1 can generally be used. Note that the capacitive load at pin
DATA is limited. The resulting time constant t together with an optional external pull-up resistor
may not be exceeded to ensure proper operation.
