World's First Digitally Programmable Capacitor Needs No External Clock
The MAX1474 is the world's first electronically programmable capacitor. It is designed to replace unreliable, mechanical inductors in common tuning circuits, needing only a fixed inductor. The MAX1474 has a high self resonant frequency making it ideal for RF applications. Through a series of digital pulses, the MAX1474 can be set to any one of 32 discrete capacitive steps. The device requires no clock and will retain this capacitance value for as long as power is supplied. Because the capacitors are actually implemented in silicon, there is virtually no drift over time.

TD-SCDMA Reference Design V1.0
The Maxim TD-SCDMA reference design Version 1.0 is a single-mode, single-band transceiver intended to support the TD-SCDMA standard. All active ICs in this reference design are from Maxim, except one PLL required due to fast lock-time requirements. This transceiver operates from a single 2.9V to 3.6V supply, drawing about 73mA in receive mode and about 373mA in transmit mode, while delivering +16dBm at antenna port. This reference design offers a complete handset transceiver design, providing the highest integration available in the industry.

PLC/AMR Reference Design
In this reference design, the MAXQ3120 energy-measurement microcontroller communicates with the MAX2986 PLC baseband chip over an asynchronous serial link at 1200bps. The firmware for the MAX2986 is modified slightly to enable communications over its internal UART and to recognize the frame format of the DL/T645 electric meter protocol.
