Control124
4 bit Address - 12 bit Data encoder/decoder
Control124 is a 4 bit address, 12 bit data
encoder and decoder combined in a single IC.
This device can operate in either Encode or
Decode mode. It uses 1kbps differential
Manchester bit balancing with preamble and
checksum. CTR124 is specifically designed to
be used in RF remote control applications. It
is available in 28pin SO and DIL packages.

Description
Active Low Reset (Connect to user system reset or tie to Vdd)
Active Low Send Packet (Encoder Enable)1
Encoded Address and Data to TXD input of RF Transmitter

Active Low RF Transmitter Enable (Open drain, require 10k pull-up)2,3
Supply Ground
3.58MHz resonator4
3.58MHz resonator4
8 bits of Data A; Schmitt trigger input5, 6
Supply Ground
4.0V-5.5V supply (decouple with 100nF close to IC).
2.0V-5.5V (low voltage version)
Least significant 4 bits of Address (Internal pull-ups to Vdd)6
Least significant 4 bits of Data B (Internal pull-ups to Vdd)6
Notes:
1. If a low going pulse of between 10µs and 50ms is applied to SEND pin then a single packet will
be transmitted
2. After asserting TXE low (active), the encoder allows 55ms for NBFM TX to power up and settle
3. TXE is an open drain output (no pull-up). Connect it to Vdd via a 10kΩ pull-up resistor
4. OSC1,2 require a 3.58MHz ceramic resonator with internal capacitors like Murata
CSTLA3M58G55-B0. If a 2 pin resonator or crystal is used, then two 15pF-22pF caps are
needed: one from OSC1 to 0V another from OSC2 to 0V. 100Ω series resistor between OSC2 and
crystal may be required when driving low frequency crystal with High Speed (H) CTR124H
version.
5. Not suitable for non-standard logic levels, require external pullup resistors.
6. Absolute maximum source/sink current from each DA0-DA7, DB0-DB3 and A0-A3 pins is 25mA.
Absolute maximum total current from DA0-DA7 port and DB0-DB3, A0-A3 port is 200mA
7. MODE pin is only read at reset/power up. Connect to either Vdd (Encoder) or 0V (Decoder).
8. Without external loads the CTR124 draws <2mA from 5V supply
9. Standard version can be used down to 4V for <20MHz oscillator.
Low voltage version can be used down to 2V for <4MHz oscillator

Notes:
1. OSC1, 2 require a 3.58MHz ceramic resonator with internal capacitors like Murata
CSTLA3M58G55-B0. If a 2 pin resonator or crystal is used, then two 15pF-22pF caps are
needed: one from OSC1 to 0V another from OSC2 to 0V. 100Ω series resistor between OSC2 and

version.
2. Absolute maximum source/sink current from each DA0-DA7, DB0-DB3, A0-A3 pins is 25mA
Absolute maximum total current from DA0-DA7 port and DB0-DB3, A0-A3 port is 200mA
3. MODE pin is only read at reset/power up. Connect to either Vdd (Encoder) or 0V (Decoder).
4. Without external loads the CTR124 draws <2mA from 5V supply.
5. Standard version can be used down to 4V for <20MHz oscillator.
Low voltage version can be used down to 2V for <4MHz oscillator.
6. High Speed, CTR124H, version should not be used with Narrow Band FM radio modules.

Encoded Data Packet Format
Transmission format is 1kbps differential Manchester encoding when using 3.58MHz resonator.
Oscillator frequency can decreased to suit narrow band RF module data rate requirements. CTR124H
IC running at 20MHz can be used with wideband radio modules for fast data transmission.

Figure 4: 1kbps differential Manchester coding of ‘1’ and ‘0’
Control124 transmits a 6-byte burst, with 8 bits of preamble and 4 bits postamble. When firing up the
transmitter from cold Control124 puts in an extra 55ms especially for Narrow Band FM transmitter
and receiver requiring longer power-up to stable data time.
Figure 5: Push button transmission with 55ms power-up preamble
The large amount of sync code, address and checksum reduce the likelihood of false calling on noise to
an insignificant degree, while the breaking up of the data sequences with bit7 zeros is to reduce the
likelihood of the decoder mistaking particular sequences in the data for sync codes.
