Figure 4-1 shows a typical 433.92 MHz VCC = 4.4V to 5.25V RKE car application. The external
components are 11 capacitors, 1 resistor, 4 inductors, a SAW filter and a crystal. C1, C3 and C4
are 68 nF voltage supply blocking capacitors. C2 is a 2.2 µF supply blocking capacitor for the
internal voltage regulator. C5 is a 10 nF supply blocking capacitor. C6 is a 15 nF fixed capacitor
used for the internal quasi-peak detector and for the high-pass frequency of the data filter. C7 to
C11 are RF matching capacitors in the range of 1 pF to 33 pF. L2 to L4 are matching inductors of
about 5.6 nH to 56 nH. A load capacitor for the crystal of 9 pF is integrated. R1 is typically 22 kΩ
and sets the output power at RFOUT to about 10 dBm. Since a quarter wave or PCB antenna,
which has high efficiency and wideband operation, is typically used here, it is recommended to
use a SAW filter to achieve high sensitivity in case of powerful out-of-band blockers. L1, C10 and
C9 together form a low-pass filter, which is needed to filter out the harmonics in the transmitted
signal to meet regulations.
