Table 8. Configuration 1 Register (Address: 0x03)
Oscillator Frequency Register (Address 0x05)
The MAX7032 has an internal frequency divider that
divides down the crystal frequency to 100kHz. The
MAX7032 uses the 100kHz clock signal when calibrat-
ing itself and also to set image-rejection frequency. The
hexadecimal value written to the oscillator frequency
register is the nearest integer result of f
XTAL
/100kHz.
For example, if data is being received at 315MHz, the
crystal frequency is 12.67917MHz. Dividing the crystal
frequency by 100kHz and rounding to the nearest inte-
ger gives 127, or 0x7F hex. So for 315MHz, 0x7F would
be written to the oscillator frequency register.
AGC Dwell Timer (Address 0x03)
The AGC dwell timer holds the AGC in low-gain state
for a set amount of time after the power level drops
below the AGC switching threshold. After that set
amount of time, if the power level is still below the AGC
threshold, the LNA goes into high-gain state. This is
important for ASK since the modulated data may have
a high level above the threshold and a low level below
the threshold, which without the dwell timer would
cause the AGC to switch on every bit.
