General Description
The MICRF004 QwikRadio™ VHF receiver is a single-chip OOK (on-off keyed) receiver IC for remote wireless applications. This device is a true single-chip, “antenna-in, data-out” device. All RF and IF tuning is accomplished automatically within the IC which eliminates manual tuning production costs and results in a highly reliable, extremely low-cost solution for high-volume wireless applications.
