The RX5500 hybrid receiver is ideal for short-range wireless control applications where robust operation, small size, low power consumption and low cost are required. The RX5500 employs RFM’s amplifiersequenced hybrid (ASH) architecture to achieve this unique blend of characteristics. All critical RF functions are contained in the hybrid, simplifying and speeding design-in. The RX5500 is sensitive and stable. A wide dynamic range log detector provides robust performance in the presence of on-channel interference or noise. Two stages of SAW filtering provide excellent receiver out-of-band rejection. The RX5500 generates virtually no RF emissions, facilitating compliance with ETSI I-ETS 300 220 and similar regulations.
