MRX-011
UHF AM Receiver Module
Description
The MRX-011 is an on-off keyed (OOK) high performance receiver for
remote wireless applications. The MRX-011 is an enhanced version of the
MRX-001. The receiver operates at 315, 390, 418, and 433 MHz and is
primarily intended for use in part 15.231 systems. Because all tuning is
automatic and the receiver functions are completely integrated, this module
is both a highly reliable and low cost solution for high volume wireless applications.
An external antenna is the only component required, therefore the
MRX-001 can be easily integrated into other applications, which has the
benefit of eliminating design and production costs and improving time to
market. The MRX-011 is a functional and pin equivalent upgrade to the
MRX-001, providing improved range, lower power consumption, and higher
data rate support when in FIX mode. |

The MRX-011 comes in two versions: FIX and SWP. In FIX mode, the receiver operates like a conventional
superheterodyne receiver with an internal local oscillator fixed at a single frequency. The transmit
frequency is accurately controlled by a crystal. In SWP mode, the receiver sweeps the internal local
oscillator at rates greater than the baseband data rate, which broadens the RF bandwidth and allows the
MRX-011 to operate with less expensive transmitters without additional components or tuning. Postdetection
data filtering is internal to the receiver, and any one of four bandwidths can be selected by the
user. Bandwidths range in binary steps from .625kHz to 5kHz (SWP mode) or 1.25kHz to 10kHz (FIX
mode). The MRX-011 is a well-designed receiver suitable for a variety of RF applications, particularly
OEM applications. |
