FMR-05
27MHz FM Receiver for Manchester Data Format

Features

• Small Size
• Low Voltage & Current Operation

Application

• Telecommand Systems
• Security Systems
• Alarms
• Radio Data Communications
• Commercial / Industrial Telemetry

FMR-05 & FMT-2712 can be combined to form a transceiver. This is possible by using Elsema's FMTR-27 printed circuit board.

Technical Note

The data output pin toggles randomly (1 msec noise) on the receiver when no carrier is received. This presents a problem when the decoding on the data pin decodes this noise as data. It is not possible to stop this noise since the receiver is constantly checking the noise for a valid data. To solve this problem you should start to decode the data, on the receiver, after a valid start pulse was decoded. This valid start pulse should be a minimum 70ms long pulse. Since the noise is made up of pulses less then 70ms the decoding only decodes valid data. The transmitter would have to transmit the start pulse.

RX-Data Slicer is set for Elsema Remote Control Signal (Average 66%L-33%H). Other duty cycles may need an increase of the 22Kohms in the FMR-05. This 22Kohms is located to the left of the 10Kohnm SMD (looking from the SMD side). Other recommended values are 27 or 33Kohms.

NB: Care should be taken that a data signal of 66/33% duty cycle is used.
