Jim,



I was perusing your website and happened upon your patent regarding demodulating of FSK. Is this the currently easiest/best way to decode FSK? Or would I be better off doing with SW and microcontroller?



I was thinking that a comparator with hysteresis to minimize noise could be used to 'square up' the input signal and then I could just use a timer on the uC to count transitions over the bit time. The freqs are 1562.5 and



2083.3 with 520.83 bit/sec rate--- giving 3 or 4, respective, transitions per bit time. Is this a good way to do it or is there another easier/better way?

Thanks,



Bo

The only reason he would see something here is if it was cross-posted to sci.electronics.design.

And while you're cross-posting, post to comp.dsp -- you'll get all the do-it-in-software partisans (like me) chipping in.
