300-440MHz QwikRadio™ASK Receiver
Final Information
General Description
The MICRF002 is a single chip ASK/OOK (ON-OFF Keyed)
RF receiver IC. This device is a true “antenna-in to data-out”
monolithic device. All RF and IF tuning is accomplished
automatically within the IC which eliminates manual tuning
and reduces production costs. The result is a highly reliable
yet low cost solution.
QwikRadio™
Features
• 300MHz to 440MHz frequency range
• Data-rate up to 10kbps (fixed-mode)
• Low Power Consumption
• 2.2mA fully operational (315MHz)
• 0.9µA in shutdown
• 220µA in polled operation (10:1 duty-cycle)
• Wake-up output flag to enable decoders and micropro-
cessors
The MICRF002 is a fully featured part in 16-pin packaging,
the MICRF022 is the same part packaged in 8-pin packaging
with a reduced feature set (see “Ordering Information” for
more information).
The MICRF002 is an enhanced version of the MICRF001
and MICRF011. The MICRF002 provides two additional
functionsovertheMICRF001/011, (1)aShutdownpin, which
may be used to turn the device off for duty-cycled operation,
and (2) a “Wake-up” output, which provides an output flag
indicatingwhenanRFsignalispresent.Thesefeaturesmake
the MICRF002 ideal for low and ultra-low power applications,
such as RKE and remote controls.
• Very low RF reradiation at the antenna
• Highly integrated with extremely low external part count
Applications
All IF filtering and post-detection (demodulator) data filtering
is provided within the MICRF002, so no external filters are
necessary. Oneoffourdemodulatorfilterbandwidthsmaybe
selected externally by the user.
• Automotive Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
• Remote controls
• Remote fan and light control
• Garage door and gate openers
The MICRF002 offer two modes of operation; fixed-mode
(FIX) and sweep-mode (SWP). In fixed mode the MICRF002
functions as a conventional superhet receiver. In sweep
mode the MICRF002 employs a patented sweeping function
to sweep a wider RF spectrum. Fixed-mode provides better
selectivity and sensitivity performance and sweep mode
enables the MICRF002 to be used with low cost, imprecise
transmitters.

Applications Information and Functional
Description
Step 1: Selecting The Operating Mode
Fixed-Mode Operation
For applications where the transmit frequency is accurately
set (that is, applications where a SAW or crystal-based
transmitter is used) the MICRF002 may be configured as a
standard superheterodyne receiver (fixed mode). In fixed-
mode operation the RF bandwidth is narrower making the
receiver less susceptible to interfering signals. Fixed mode is
selected by connecting SWEN to ground.
Refer to figure 1 “MICRF002 Block Diagram”. Identified in the
block diagram are the four sections of the IC: UHF
Downconverter, OOK Demodulator, Reference and Control,
and Wakeup. Also shown in the figure are two capacitors
(C , C
) and one timing component, usually a crystal or
TH
AGC
ceramicresonator. Withtheexceptionofasupplydecoupling
capacitor, and antenna impedance matching network, these
are the only external components needed by the MICRF002
to assemble a complete UHF receiver.
Sweep-Mode Operation
When used in conjunction with low-cost L-C transmitters the
MICRF002 should be configured in sweep-mode. In sweep-
mode, while the topology is still superheterodyne, the LO
(local oscillator) is swept over a range of frequencies at rates
greater than the data rate. This technique effectively in-
creases the RF bandwidth of the MICRF002, allowing the
device to operate in applications where significant transmit-
ter-receiver frequency misalignment may exist. The transmit
frequency may vary up to 0.5% over initial tolerance, aging,
and temperature. In sweep-mode a band approximately
1.5%aroundthenominaltransmitfrequencyiscaptured. The
transmitter may drift up to 0.5% without the need to retune
the receiver and without impacting system performance.
For optimal performance is highly recommended that the
MICRF002isimpedancematchedtotheantenna, thematch-
ing network will add an additional two or three components.
Four control inputs are shown in the block diagram: SEL0,
SEL1, SWEN, and SHUT. Using these logic inputs, the user
cancontroltheoperatingmodeandselectablefeaturesofthe
IC. These inputs are CMOS compatible, and are internally
pulled-up. IF Bandpass Filter Roll-off response of the IF Filter
is 5th order, while the demodulator data filter exhibits a 2nd
order response.
Design Steps
The following steps are the basic design steps for using the
MICRF002 receiver:
The swept-LO technique does not affect the IF bandwidth,
therefore noise performance is not degraded relative to fixed
mode. The IF bandwidth is 430kHz whether the device is
operating in fixed or sweep-mode.
1). Select the operating mode (sweep or fixed)
2). Select the reference oscillator
Due to limitations imposed by the LO sweeping process, the
upper limit on data rate in sweep mode is approximately
5.0kbps.
3). Select the C capacitor

4). Select the C

Similar performance is not currently available with crystal-
based superheterodyne receivers which can operate only
with SAW- or crystal-based transmitters.

In sweep-mode, a range reduction will occur in installations
where there is a strong interferer in the swept RF band. This
is because the process indiscriminately includes all signals
within the sweep range. An MICRF002 may be used in place
of a superregenerative receiver in most applications.
Frequency f is in MHz. Connect a crystal of frequency f to
REFOSC on the MICRF002. Four-decimal-place accuracy
on the frequency is generally adequate. The following table

Step 2: Selecting The Reference

rived from the internal Colpitts reference oscillator. Timing

Polarity of the droop is unknown, meaning the AGC voltage
could droop up or down. Worst-case from a recovery stand-
point is downward droop, since the AGC pull-up current is
1/10th magnitude of the pulldown current. The downward
droop is replenished according to the Equation 7:

For example, if user desires ∆t = 10ms and chooses a 4.7µF

is important to keep the AGC control voltage ripple low,
preferably under 10mVpp once the control voltage has at-
tained its quiescent value. For this reason capacitor values of
at least 0.47µF are recommended.

same equation with 200nA worst case pin leakage and
assuming 1µA of capacitor leakage in the same direction, the
maximum allowable ∆t (shutdown time) is about 0.56s for
droop recovery in 10ms.
The AGC control voltage is carefully managed on-chip to
allow duty-cycle operation of the MICRF002. When the
device is placed into shutdown mode (SHUT pin pulled high),
the AGC capacitor floats to retain the voltage. When opera-
tion is resumed, only the voltage droop due to capacitor
leakage must be replenished. A relatively low-leakage ca-
pacitor is recommended when the devices are used in duty-
cycled operation.
The ratio of decay-to-attack time-constant is fixed at 10:1
(that is, the attack time constant is 1/10th of the decay time

Step 5: Selecting The Demod Filter
Bandwidth
The inputs SEL0 and SEL1 control the demodulator filter
bandwidth in four binary steps (625Hz to 5000Hz in sweep,
1250Hz to 10000Hz in fixed mode), see Table 1. Bandwidth
must be selected according to the application. The demodu-
lator bandwidth should be set according to equation 8.
Tofurtherenhanceduty-cycledoperation, theAGCpushand
pull currents are boosted for approximately 10ms immedi-
ately after the device is taken out of shutdown. This compen-
sates for AGC capacitor voltage droop and reduces the time
to restore the correct AGC voltage. The current is boosted by
a factor of 45.

Antenna Impedance Matching
As shown in table 4 the antenna pin input impedance is
frequency dependant.
The ANT pin can be matched to 50 Ohms with an L-type
circuit. That is, a shunt inductor from the RF input to ground
and another in series from the RF input to the antenna pin.

Shutdown Function
Duty-cycled operation of the MICRF002 (often referred to as
polling) is achieved by turning the MICRF002 on and off via
the SHUT pin. The shutdown function is controlled by a logic
state applied to the SHUT pin. When V
is high, the
SHUT
device goes into low-power standby mode. This pin is pulled
high internally, it must be externally pulled low to enable the
receiver.

For applications located in high ambient noise environments,
a fixed value band-pass network may be connected between
the ANT pin and VSSRF to provide additional receive selec-
tivityandinputoverloadprotection. Aminimuminputconfigu-
ration is included in figure 7a. it provides some filtering and
necessary overload protection.
For designers who wish to use the wakeup function while
squelching the output, a positive squelching offset voltage
must be used. This simply requires that the squelch resistor
be connected to a voltage more positive than the quiescent
voltage on the CTH pin so that the data output is low in
absence of a transmission.
Data Squelching
During quiet periods (no signal) the data output (DO pin)
transitions randomly with noise. Most decoders can
descriminate between this random noise and actual data but
for some system it does present a problem. There are three
possible approaches to reducing this output noise:
I/O Pin Interface Circuitry
Interface circuitry for the various I/O pins of the MICRF002
are diagrammed in Figures 1 through 6. The ESD protection
diodes at all input and output pins are not shown.

2). Digital squelch to disable the output when data is not
present

3). Output filter to filter the (high frequency) noise glitches on

Demodulator
Signal
The simplest solution is add analog squelch by introducing a
small offset, or squelch voltage, on the CTH pin so that noise
does not trigger the internal comparator. Usually 20mV to
30mV is sufficient, and may be achieved by connecting a

tor input is always the same, set by the AGC. The squelch

changes from installation to installation. Introducing squelch
will reduce sensitivity and also reduce range. Only introduce
an amount of offset sufficient to quiet the output. Typical
squelch resistor values range from 6.8MΩ to 10MΩ.
Figure 2 illustrates the CTH-pin interface circuit. The CTH pin
is driven from a P-channel MOSFET source-follower with
approximately 10µA of bias. Transmission gates TG1 and
TG2 isolate the 6.9pF capacitor. Internal control signals
PHI1/PHI2 are related in a manner such that the impedance
across the transmission gates looks like a “resistance” of
approximately 100kΩ. The dc potential at the CTH pin is
approximately 1.6V
Wake-Up Function
The WAKEB output signal can be used to reduce system
power consumption by enabling the rest of a system when an
RF signal is present. The WAKEB is an output logic signal
which goes active low when the IC detects a constant RF
carrier. The wake-up function is unavailable when the IC is in
shutdown mode.
To activate the Wake-Up function, a received constant RF
carrier must be present for 128 counts or the internal system
clock. Theinternalsystemclockisderivedfromthereference
oscillator and is 1/256 the reference oscillator frequency. For
example:
f = 6.4MHz

Applications Example
315MHz Receiver/Decoder Application
Figure 7a illustrates a typical application for the MICRF002
UHF Receiver IC. This receiver operates continuously (not
duty cycled) in sweep mode, and features 6-bit address
decoding and two output code bits.
Operation in this example is at 315MHz, and may be custom-
izedbyselectionoftheappropriatefrequencyreference(Y1),
and adjustment of the antenna length. The value of C4 would
also change if the optional input filter is used. Changes from
the 1kb/s data rate may require a change in the value of R1.
