AM Receiver IC
•
Wide Supply Voltage Range
•
Power Down and Power Up Control
•
Control for AGC On
DESCRIPTION
The MAS1016 AM-Receiver chip is a highly
sensitive, simple to use AM receiver specially
intended to receive time signals in the frequency
range from 40 kHz to 100 kHz. There are only a few
external components needed. The circuit has a
preamplifier, wide range automatic gain control,
demodulator and output comparator built in. The
output signal can be processed directly with an
additional digital circuitry to extract the data from the
received signal.

Notes:
1) Level = VSS means receiver on; VDD = receiver off
2) Level = VSS means AGC hold; VDD = AGC on (working)
- Internal pull-up with current < 1
µA
which is switched off in power down
- During AGC hold the receiver output OUT is hold down to VSS
3) 100% AM results in Level = VSS; 25% AM results in Level = VDD
-
the output is a current source/sink with |I
OUT
| > 5
µA
-
at power down the output is tri-state

2) Level = VDD means receiver on; VSS = receiver off (PDN = VDD)
Internal pull-down resistor > 1MOhm to VSS
3) 100 % AM results in Level = VSS; 25 % AM results in Level = VDD
