With this configuration, a long string of NRZ zeros or
ones can cause the threshold to drift. This configuration
works best if a coding scheme, such as Manchester
coding, which has an equal number of zeros and ones,
is used.

Figure 5 shows a configuration that uses the positive and
negative peak detectors to generate the threshold. This
configuration sets the threshold to the midpoint between
a high output and a low output of the data filter.
The maximum peak detectors (PDMAXA for ASK,
PDMAXF for FSK) and minimum peak detectors (PDMI-
NA for ASK, PDMINF for FSK), in conjunction with resis-
tors and capacitors shown in Figure 5, create DC
output voltages proportional to the high and low peak
values of the filtered ASK or FSK demodulated signals.
The resistors provide a path for the capacitors to dis-
charge, allowing the peak detectors to dynamically fol-
low peak changes of the data-filter output voltages.
The maximum and minimum peak detectors can be
used together to form a data-slicer threshold voltage at
a midvalue between the maximum and minimum volt-
age levels of the data stream (see the Data Slicers sec-
tion and Figure 5). The RC time constant of the peak-
detector combining network should be set to at least 5
times the data period.
If there is an event that causes a significant change in
the magnitude of the baseband signal, such as an AGC
gain switch or a power-up transient, the peak detectors
may “catch” a false level. If a false peak is detected,
the slicing level is incorrect. The MAX1471 has a fea-
ture called peak-detector track enable (TRK_EN),
where the peak-detector outputs can be reset (see
Figure 6). If TRK_EN is set (logic 1), both the maximum
and minimum peak detectors follow the input signal.
When TRK_EN is cleared (logic 0), the peak detectors
revert to their normal operating mode. The TRK_EN
function is automatically enabled for a short time and
then disabled whenever the IC recovers from the sleep
portion of DRX mode, or when an AGC gain switch
occurs. Since the peak detectors exhibit a fast
attack/slow decay response, this feature allows for an
extremely fast startup or AGC recovery. See Figure 7
for an illustration of a fast-recovery sequence. In addi-
tion to the automatic control of this function, the
TRK_EN bits can be controlled through the serial inter-
face (see the Serial Control Interface section).
The MAX1471 can be powered from a 2.4V to 3.6V sup-
ply or a 4.5V to 5.5V supply. The device has an on-chip
linear regulator that reduces the 5V supply to 3V need-
ed to operate the chip.
To operate the MAX1471 from a 3V supply, connect
DVDD, AVDD, and HVIN to the 3V supply. When using
a 5V supply, connect the supply to HVIN only and con-
