If a low going pulse of between 10µs and 50ms is applied to SEND pin then a single packet will
be transmitted
After asserting TXE low (active), the encoder allows 55ms for NBFM TX to power up and settle
TXE is an open drain output (no pull-up). Connect it to Vdd via a 10kΩ pull-up resistor
OSC1,2 require a 3.58MHz ceramic resonator with internal capacitors like Murata
CSTLA3M58G55-B0. If a 2 pin resonator or crystal is used, then two 15pF-22pF caps are
needed: one from OSC1 to 0V another from OSC2 to 0V. 100Ω series resistor between OSC2 and
crystal may be required when driving low frequency crystal with High Speed (H) CTR124H
version.
Not suitable for non-standard logic levels, require external pullup resistors.
Absolute maximum source/sink current from each DA0-DA7, DB0-DB3 and A0-A3 pins is 25mA.
Absolute maximum total current from DA0-DA7 port and DB0-DB3, A0-A3 port is 200mA
MODE pin is only read at reset/power up. Connect to either Vdd (Encoder) or 0V (Decoder).
Without external loads the CTR124 draws <2mA from 5V supply
Standard version can be used down to 4V for <20MHz oscillator.
Low voltage version can be used down to 2V for <4MHz oscillator
