The signals coming from the RF front end are filtered by the fully integrated 4th-order IF filter.

B
The receiver ATA3741-M3 employs an IF bandwidth of B
together with the U2741B in FSK and ASK mode. If used in ASK applications, it allows higher
tolerances for the receiver and PLL transmitter crystals. SAW transmitters exhibit much higher
transmit frequency tolerances compared to PLL transmitters. Generally, it is necessary to use
B
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 DR
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 V
V
pin SENS and GND or VS. The output of the comparator is fed into the digital control logic. This
makes it possible to operate the receiver at lower sensitivity.
If R
is defined by the value of R
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
R
the ATA3741 receiver IC. 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
the receiver is still active.
