The CMX017 is a single chip UHF FM/FSK transmitter that combines both the RF VCO Modulator and RF Power Amplifier. It is suitable for both audio FM and digital FSK transmissions. A buffered oscillator output provides the RF signal drive to an external synthesizer or fixed frequency phaselocked loop for channel frequency selection. Modulator output power is adjustable over a 20dB range and the integrated power amplifier delivers up to +20dBm. The device also includes a powersave mode: "Transmit Standby" and a zero-power mode: "Sleep". These allow independent power down control of both the modulator and power amplifier, thereby maximizing battery life. The device can be used in conjunction with the CMX018, a double-conversion super-heterodyne receiver, to implement a complete UHF radio link. The CMX017 operates from a 2.7V to 3.3V power supply and is available in the following package style: 28-pin SSOP (CMX017D6).
