AMIS-52100
Low-Power Transceiver with Clock and Data Recovery
Data Sheet
1.0 Introduction
The AMIS-52100 is a low-cost, ultra-low power single chip transceiver. It combines the proven amplitude shift key/on-off key
(ASK/OOK) modulation technology of the AMIS-52000 with data clock recovery. The AMIS-52100 is targeted at narrow band
applications in the 402 to 405MHz range.
Features such as dual independent receive channels, quick start crystal oscillator start up, Sniff Mode signal acquisition, and data
clock recovery make the AMIS-52100 ideally suited for a wide range of customer applications. Applications that the AMIS-52100 can be
used for are point-to-point wireless data links, low cost wireless monitors, very low power remote wireless sensors, and many other
uses.
