6 Application Notes
6.1 Overview
The purpose of this section is to describe the CMX838 from an application perspective to shorten the time to
successfully develop CMX838-based designs. Because the CMX838 integrates so many functions of an
FRS/PMR446/GMRS (hereinafter referred to collectively as FRS) radio, an approach is taken to examine a
radio design from a top level down with an emphasis on CMX838 functions. Functions outside the CMX838,
e.g. RF functions, are beyond the scope of this data bulletin and so are presented only in conceptual form for
illustrative purposes.
