The MC33690 is a
Standalone Tag Reader Circuit (STARC), integrated as a circuit
dedicated to the automotive immobilizer applications. The MC33690
combines all the circuitry on the same chip to an interface with a
transponder: antenna drivers and demodulator. A low dropout voltage
regulator and physical interface, fully compatible with ISO 9141 are
also available. The MC33690 is fabricated with the SMARTMOS 3.5
technology. This process is a double layer metal, 1.4 um, 45 V
technology, combining CMOS and bipolar devices.
