Engineering parameters receiver module DCF - EM6 DCF

Once the receiver module EM6 DCF is combined with a tuned ferrite antenna (77.5kHz), then it constitutes a complete receiver- and demodulator-unit for the german time-code signal DCF77. On its output the module supplies the demodulated DCF-signal, able to be decoded afterwards by a corresponding microcontroller unit. By use of the corresponding configuration circuit the polarity of output-signal can be or conform to the original DCF-signal or conform to the inverted DCF-signal.
