Mountain View, California, United States
Integration Associates, a fabless semiconductor company focusing on high performance analog solutions for wireless and wireline data communications, unveiled its newest addition to the EZRadio product family, the IA4315 OOK (ON/OFF keying) wireless receiver.
The IA4315 is a low cost, OOK receiver designed specifically for 434/868/915MHz band applications such as toy, home automation, and building products, amongst others.
The IA4315 is designed to provide the optimal balance between Bill of Materials (BOM), design flexibility, performance, and current consumption. Additionally the IA4315 provides users with the usual EZRadio features such as a built in low battery detector, wake-up timer, microcontroller clock-out, a 64-bit Rx FIFO and a programmable baseband bandwidth to accommodate various deviation, data rate and crystal tolerance requirements.
Designed to operate between 2.2V and 3.8V using only one crystal and a couple of external decoupling capacitors the IA4315 provides the lowest cost OOK receiver on the market, additionally it is also designed to reduce load on the external microcontroller. Integrated digital data processing such as data filtering, clock recovery and data pattern recognition reduce the need for higher end microcontrollers in favor of small low-cost 4/8-bit variants.
"The short-range ISM market is currently dominated by proprietary solutions, and as such has a wide range of different radio alternatives," commented Rafi Fried General Manager for Integration's Wireless Business Unit. Mr. Fried continues, "Although most new applications today are 2-way FSK transceiver based, there is a large install base of mostly legacy, 1-way OOK type applications. Integration's goal in general is to provide the most suitable solution to every short-range ISM application and the IA4315 is targeted to provide the lowest BOM cost solution with state-of-the-art performance for those 1-way link OOK customers."
