Table 3: Data Rate vs. BT and Selected External Component Values
Note: In all cases, the value of R1 should not be less than 20.0k, and that the calculated value of C1
includes calculated parasitic capacitance.
2. R3, R4 and C6 form the gain components for the RX Input signal. R3 should be chosen as required by
the signal input level.
3. For bit rate 64kbps, R4 = 100k. For bit rate > 64kbps, R4 = 10k.
4. The values chosen for C2 and C3 (including stray capacitance) should be suitable for the applied VDD
and the frequency of X1.
As a guide: C2 = C3 = 33pF at 1.0MHz falling to 18pF at the maximum frequency.
At 3.0V, C2 = C3 = 33pF falling to 18pF at 5.0MHz the equivalent series resistance of X1 should be less
than 2.0K falling to 150 at the maximum frequency. Stray capacitance on the Xtal/Clock circuit pins
must be minimized.
5. For bit rate 64kbps, C6 = 22pF. For bit rate > 64kbps, C6 =
1
e.g. for 128kbps,
3 bit rate 2 10k
C6 = 41.1pF.
6. C7 and C8 should both be .015F for a data rate of 8kbps, and inversely proportional to the data rate for
other data rates, e.g. 0.030F at 4kbps, 1800pF at 64kbps, 680pF at 192kbps.
7. The tolerance of C9 is not very critical because it primarily serves as a DC blocking capacitor.
8. The CMX589A can operate correctly with the Xtal/Clock frequencies between 1.0MHz and 8.2MHz
(VDD = 5.0V) and 1.0MHz to 5.0MHz (VDD = 3.0V). External clock frequencies up to 25.6MHz
(VDD 4.5V) are also supported. (See Table 4 for examples.) For best results, a crystal oscillator design
should drive the clock inverter input with signal levels of at least 40% of VDD, peak to peak. Tuning fork
crystals generally cannot meet this requirement. To obtain crystal oscillator design assistance, consult
your crystal manufacturer. Operation of this device without a Xtal or Clock input may cause device
damage.
