3.3V, Qwik Radio® 850 MHz to 950 MHz Receiver General Description The MICRF221 is a third generation Qwik Radio® receiver, offering all the benefits of Micrel's earlier Qwik Radio® products with significant improvements, including: enhanced sensitivity, automatic duty-cycle feature and RSSI output. The MICRF221 is a super-heterodyne receiver, designed for OOK and ASK modulation. The downconversion mixer also provides image rejection. The MICRF221 receiver provides a SLEEP Mode for duty-cycle operation and an enhanced, customer programmable "WAKE" function. These Features are further bined into a wholly integrated "self-polling" scheme that is ideal for low and ultra-low power applications, such as RKE and RFID All post-detection data filtering is provided on the MICRF221 receiver. Any one of four filter bandwidths may be selected externally by the user in binary steps, from 1.25k Hz to 10k Hz. The user needs only to program the device with a set of easily determined values...
