SDK-AC4486-5M

Size, speed, range, power consumption and cost are all important issues to engineers integrating RF connectivity. AeroComm addresses these issues with compact 2.4GHz, 900MHz & 8 6 8 M H z transceivers. Designed for fast OEM integration, our radios suit applications where both high reliability and long range are essential. AeroComm’s Design Kits provide a complete development environment to help engineers get up and running with our solutions in a matter of minutes. Each system includes the transceivers and accessories required to install and test RF, allowing for reduced R&D costs, quick agency certification and fast time to market. Design Kits are not just for engineers working with tight resources, limited time or varying experience—all OEMs can benefit from our comprehensive tools and highly technical expertise in the complex field of RF. Software ✓ Testing and tuning antennas ✓ Hardware and software integration ✓ Increasing transmission range ✓ Finding best mode for data rate & network ✓ Optimizing system timing ✓ Finding best configuration for application ✓ Mechanical engineering ✓ Help with agency certification In an easy menu-driven format, our Windowscompatible software provides several helpful development utilities, allowing OEMs to quickly begin performing tests for configuration modes, range measurements, antenna evaluations, power management and data throughput. Plus, designers can easily program the transceivers to any desired configuration with the EEPROM Viewer/Editor feature. Configuration Two (2) Transceivers Choose from AeroComm’s 2.4GHz, 900MHz or 868MHz kits. Marketready modules help you to determine actual transmission range for your application, evaluate data throughput in the field, and choose best mechanical fit. Two (2) Adapter Boards RS232, RS485, 5V/3.3V serial TTL and USB interfaces supported. More features include: 1) loop-back feature for distance-testing using one computer, 2) status/communications LED indicators, 3) switches for easy configuration & reset, 4) test points for troubleshooting. One (1) Utilities CD Script-driven utilities include: 1) transmit/receive emulator, 2) singleline command interface, 3) EEPROM viewer/editor; configuration information storage file, 4) “What’s This?” Help File format provides description of each configuration option, 5) error-checking prevents configuration errors. Two (2) AC Power Adapters Power for adapter board & transceiver. USB & battery power optional. Two (2) DB9 Serial Cables Connect the adapter board to PC via DB9. Two (2) USB Cables Connect the adapter board to PC via USB. Two (2) Dipole Antennas Convenient, small, cost-efficient dipole antennas plug directly into transceiver’s MMCX connector; longer-range antennas available. Engineering Expertise AeroComm’s team is available to assist with development, integration, and agency certification processes. All AeroComm transceivers have configuration parameters stored in EEPROM that are used to customize the Serial Interface Mode and provide for general system setup. The modules ship with default parameters already configured to enable plug-and-play; these can be changed using our development tools or with custom interfaces developed by the OEM. Antennas Antenna type, gain and location are among the most critical elements of a wireless system. AeroComm’s Design Kit allows OEMs to connect different antennas and evaluate their performance in various situations. In addition, our engineers can provide a comprehensive antenna review during the design process to determine the best antenna and location for the application. Compliance RF products are required to meet regulatory compliance such as FCC (USA), IC (Canada), ETSI (Europe). Our transceiver approvals will help eliminate significant costs and time, yet regulatory compliance is still required for the final product. AeroComm’s experts can help guide OEMs through the approval process. Ordering Information Select a frequency band and feature set from the list below to identify the appropriate part number.
