Control44
4 bit Address - 4 bit Data encoder/decoder
Control44 is a 4 bit address, 4 bit data
encoder and decoder combined in a single IC.
This device can operate in either Encode or
Decode mode. It uses 1kbps differential
Manchester bit balancing with preamble and
checksum.CTR44 is specifically designed to
be used in RF remote control applications. It
is available in 20pin SSOP, 18pin SOIC and
PDIP packages.

Encoded Address and Data from RXD Output of RF Receiver
Notes:
1. Only 4 of the 6 address bits are accessible. A5,A4 are set to 0 in CTR44
2. OSC1,2 require a 3.58MHz ceramic resonator with internal capacitors like Murata
CSTLA3M58G55-B0. If a 2 pin resonator or crystal is used, then two 15pF-22pF caps are
needed: one from OSC1 to 0V another from OSC2 to 0V. 100Ω series resistor between OSC2 and
crystal may be required when driving low frequency crystal with High Speed (H) CTR44H
version.
3. If a low going pulse of between 10µs and 50ms is applied to SEND pin then a single packet will
be transmitted
4. After asserting TXE low (active), the encoder allows 55ms for NBFM TX to power up and settle
5. Absolute maximum source/sink current from each DB3:DB0 pin is 25mA
6. TXE is an open drain output (no pull-up). Connect it to Vdd via a 10kΩ pull-up resistor
7. MODE pin is only read at reset/power up. Connect to either Vdd (Encoder) or 0V (Decoder).
8. Without external loads the CTR44 draws <2mA from 5V supply.
9. Standard version can be used down to 3V for <10MHz oscillator.
Low voltage version can be used down to 2V for <4MHz oscillator.
10. High Speed, CTR44H, version should not be used with Narrow Band FM radio modules.
Encoded Data Packet Format
Transmission format is 1kbps differential Manchester encoding when using 3.58MHz resonator.
Oscillator frequency can decreased to suit narrow band RF module data rate requirements. CTR44H IC
running at 20MHz can be used with wideband radio modules for fast data transmission.

Control44 transmits a 6-byte burst, with 8 bits of preamble and 4 bits postamble. When firing up the
transmitter from cold Control44 puts in an extra 55ms especially for Narrow Band FM transmitter and
receiver requiring longer power-up to stable data time.
Figure 5: Push button transmission with 55ms power-up preamble
The large amount of sync code, address and checksum reduce the likelihood of false calling on noise to
an insignificant degree, while the breaking up of the data sequences with bit7 zeros is to reduce the
likelihood of the decoder mistaking particular sequences in the data for sync codes.
Differential Manchester encoding coverts the 0000 into 11001100 which is the bit pattern equivalent to preamble
required to settle adaptive data slicer in the RF receiver module.
