The MAX7032 crystal-based, fractional-N transceiver is designed to transmit and receive ASK/OOK or FSK data in the 300MHz to 450MHz frequency range with data rates up to 33kbps (Manchester encoded) or 66kbps (NRZ encoded). This device generates a typical output power of +10dBm into a 50Ω load, and exhibits typical sensitivities of -114dBm for ASK data and -110dBm for FSK data. The MAX7032 features separate transmit and receive pins (PAOUT and LNAIN) and provides an internal RF switch that can be used to connect the transmit and receive pins to a common antenna.

The MAX7032 transmit frequency is generated by a 16-bit, fractional-N, phase-locked loop (PLL), while the receiver's local oscillator (LO) is generated by an integer-N PLL. This hybrid architecture eliminates the need for separate transmit and receive crystal reference oscillators because the fractional-N PLL allows the transmit frequency to be set within 2kHz of the receive frequency. The 12-bit resolution of the fractional-N PLL allows frequency multiplication of the crystal frequency in steps of fXTAL/4096. Retaining the fixed-N PLL for the receiver avoids the higher current drain requirements of a fractional-N PLL and keeps the receiver current drain as low as possible.

The fractional-N architecture of the MAX7032 transmit PLL allows the transmit FSK signal to be programmed for exact frequency deviations, and completely eliminates the problems associated with oscillator-pulling FSK signal generation. All frequency-generation components are integrated on-chip, and only a crystal, a 10.7MHz IF filter, and a few discrete components are required to implement a complete antenna/digital data solution.

The MAX7032 is available in a small 5mm x 5mm, 32-pin, thin QFN package, and is specified to operate in the automotive -40°C to +125°C temperature range.

Product Detail

The MAX7032 evaluation kit allows for a detailed evaluation of the MAX7032 ASK/FSK transceiver, capable of operating in the 300MHz to 450MHz frequency range. The device generates a typical output power of +10dBm into a 50Ω load and exhibits typical sensitivities of -114dBm for ASK and -110dBm for FSK data. The RF input uses a 50Ω matching network and an SMA connector for convenient connection to test equipment. The MAX7032 EV kit operates in conjunction with an external microcontroller (MCU) and graphical user interface (GUI) software running on a computer. The MAX7032 uses a SPI interface for internal register configuration.

The MAX7032 EV kit comes in two versions: a 315MHz version and a 433.92MHz version. The passive components are optimized for these frequencies. These components can easily be changed to work at RF frequencies from 300MHz to 450MHz.

For easy implementation into the customer’s design, the MAX7032 EV kit also features a proven Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout, which can be easily duplicated for quicker time-to-market. The PCB gerber files are available for download at www.maximintegrated.com.
