DESCRIPTION
1.
FSK comparator (FSK COMP)
FSK comparator is a wave shaping circuit. When the demodulated FSK signal is weak or noisy, the computer may fail to read this signal. To prevent the read-error, the wave shaping circuit will change this weak or noisy signal to the correct signal. Pin 10 usually pulls up to power supply output voltage through an external high-valued resistor. This external resistor can be connected to another power source within the limit of absolute maximum ratings.

2.
Quick charge/ discharge circuit
The DC voltage of pin 4 is ordinarily equal to that of the demodulated FSK signal. When the initial state of power-up turns into a steady state, the voltage of pin 4 will be late to come up to the reference voltage by reason of time constant of an external capacitor and an internal resistor. At that time the wave shaped data may be failed to read correctly. The quick charge/discharge circuit serves a useful function to shorten the rise time when power is turned on. When power supply is hooked up to pin9 upon turning the power on, this circuit will charge/discharge the external capacitor quickly to prevent read-error. Instead of the power supply, another power source can also be used within the limit of the rated supply voltage. During the high-speed charge/discharge circuit runs, DC level of FM demodulated signal may varies with frequency shift or others. Even in such a case, the voltage of pin 4 follows the voltage of FM demodulated signal so that the duty ratio of wave shaped output can keep constant.

Carrier sense The result of comparator is output to pin13 by comparing the output voltage of pin11 with external reference voltage of pin 12. Because pin13 is an open-collector terminal, an external resistor can be connected to another power supply within the limit of absolute maximum ratings.

RSSI circuit (RSSI) A DC voltage corresponding to the input level of pin1 is output to pin11. The internal resistance of pin11 is around 48 kΩ. The RSSI characteristics can be changed by adding an external resistor,. In such a case, note that the temperature characteristics of pin 11 may alter due to a disparity between the temperature coefficient of the external resistor and the internal resistor of pin 11.
