Applications

800 MHz to 1 GHz OOK telemetry receivers, proprietary wireless links and legacy high-UHF remote receiver products.

Designs that require the MICRF005 frequency class rather than the lower 300 MHz to 440 MHz QwikRadio receivers.

Quality & Sourcing

Antrex Electronics can support sourcing for MICRF005BM through available stock checks, BOM consolidation and alternative-lot checking. For RF receiver ICs, lot/date code, package condition, moisture sensitivity handling and original labeling should be checked before shipment.

For project builds or shortage support, Antrex Electronics can coordinate visual inspection, packaging verification and third-party electrical or authenticity testing when required. This helps buyers manage risk when sourcing discontinued, legacy or hard-to-find RF receiver parts.
