RF Receivers Procurement Notes

Verify the suffix +T indicates tape and reel packaging when ordering. Confirm the specific variant matches the required frequency band and modulation support. Ensure the I2C address settings align with the target system design. Check for RoHS compliance status as indicated by the + symbol. Validate the package type against PCB footprint requirements prior to procurement.

RF Receivers Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring sub-1GHz reception with flexible modulation support. Consider the I2C interface if digital configuration is preferred over analog tuning. Evaluate the -127dBm sensitivity against link budget requirements. Ensure the operating voltage range fits the system power rails. Compare performance metrics against alternative receivers for cost and size optimization.

RF Receivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX4147X series of sub-1GHz ISM receivers from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated. The series includes variants like MAX41473 and MAX41474, offering similar core functionalities with slight differences in configuration options.
