MAX1472
The MAX1472 is a crystal-referenced phase-locked 2.1V to 3.6V Single-Supply Operation
loop (PLL) VHF/UHF transmitter designed to transmit
OOK/ASK data in the 300MHz to 450MHz frequency Low 5.3mA Operating Supply Current*
range. The MAX1472 supports data rates up to Supports ASK with 90dB Modulation Depth

temperature dependence. Combined, these improve-
ments enable better overall receiver performance when
using a superheterodyne receiver such as the MAX1470
or MAX1473.
The MAX1472 is available in a 3mm x 3mm 8-pin
SOT23 package and is specified for the automotive
(-40C to +125C) temperature range. An evaluation kit *At 50% duty cycle (315MHz, 2.7V supply, +10dBm output

MAX1472
Stresses beyond those listed under Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
