Description
The highly integrated CMX838 Family Radio Processor includes subaudio, audio, and synthesiser functions to serve as the core engine for low cost, high performance FRS, PMR446, and GMRS radio designs.
Its flexibility supports both simple and advanced multi-channel radios without cost penalties. Integrated Tx voltage reference and baseband clock generation circuits eliminate the need for external components.

The CMX838’s features directly support advanced end-product functions such as: group calling, scanning, automatic scanner response tone setup, and Tone Cloning™.
The use of the CMX838 in one global radio design can support multiple standards and markets.
Controlled via a serial interface (C-BUS) this Family Radio Processor IC operates from a 3V to 5V supply and is available in 28-pin TSSOP and SOIC packages.
