This amplifier-sequenced hybrid (ASH) receiver is based on several leading-edge
technologies that allow outstanding performance in a small and simple-to-apply
module. Two surface-accoustic-wave (SAW) devices are employed. Front-end fil-
tering by a low-loss coupled-resonator SAW filter provides excellent selectivity. Typ-
ical sensitivity better than -80 dBm is achieved with no RF oscillating or regenerative circuits. This results in virtually no RF spurious
emissions. A low-loss SAW delay line provides the time delay necessary to sequence the two RF amplifiers. Time sequencing of the RF
gain eliminates the need for frequency conversion prior to AM detection. This receiver is designed to operate from 3 V lithium battery
with typically 2.5 mA current. For system design flexibility, the baseband output is accessible, and the comparator threshold can be
changed externally between two settings. Typical applications include unlicensed wireless remote-controls and digital data links operat-
ing in Europe under the European Telecommunication Standard (ETSI) 300-220-1.
