The MAX7044 crystal-referenced phase-locked-loop (PLL) VHF/UHF transmitter is designed to transmit OOK/ASK data in the 300MHz to 450MHz frequency range. The MAX7044 supports data rates up to 100kbps, and provides output power up to +13dBm into a 50Ω load while only drawing 7.7mA at 2.7V.

The crystal-based architecture of the MAX7044 eliminates many of the common problems with SAW-based transmitters by providing greater modulation depth, faster frequency settling, higher tolerance of the transmit frequency, and reduced temperature dependence. The MAX7044 also features a low supply voltage of +2.1V to +3.6V. These improvements enable better overall receiver performance when using the MAX7044 together with a superheterodyne receiver such as the MAX1470 or MAX1473.

A simple, single-input data interface and a buffered clock-out signal at 1/16th the crystal frequency make the MAX7044 compatible with almost any microcontroller or code-hopping generator.

The MAX7044 is available in an 8-pin SOT23 package and is specified over the -40°C to +125°C automotive temperature range.

Product Detail

The MAX7044 evaluation kit (EV kit) contains a single MAX7044 crystal-referenced phase-locked-loop (PLL) VHF/UHF transmitter designed to transmit OOK/ASK data in the 300MHz to 450MHz frequency range.

The EV kit operates alone or in conjunction with an external microcontroller (MCU) and graphical user interface (GUI) software running on a computer.

The EV kit is designed to facilitate the operation of the transmitter and provide tools for generating a data stream with a simple, one-pin data interface to the MAX7044. This EV kit is preconfigured to operate at two frequencies (315MHz or 433MHz) based on the crystal selection and the output network.

The EV kit includes Windows® 10-compatible software that provides a simple GUI that controls the on-board PMIC and can act as a data generator when the MAX32630FTHR applications platform is used.
