TDA5221

The IC is a very low power consumption single chip FSK/ASK Superheterodyne Receiver (SHR) for the frequency band 300 to 340 MHz. The IC offers a high level of integration and needs only a few external components. The device contains a low noise amplifier (LNA), a double balanced mixer, a fully integrated VCO, a PLL synthesiser, a crystal oscillator, a limiter with RSSI generator, a PLL FSK demodulator, a data filter, an advanced data comparator (slicer) with selection between two threshold modes and a peak detector. Additionally there is a power down feature to save current and extend battery life, and two selectable alternatives of generating the data slicer threshold.
