Available for operation at all world frequencies these modules are able to transmit at distances of up to 250+ m (433.92 MHz version). The MKT5 module will suit one-to-one and multinode wireless links in applications including building and car security, remote industrial process monitoring and computer networking. Because of its small size and low power requirements, this modules is ideal for use in portable battery powered wireless applications.

This pin should ideally be connected to the nearest ground plane (e.g. coax braid, main PCB ground plane etc.) RF OUT (pin2) 50 RF antenna output. To achieve best results the antenna impedance must match that of the module. VCC (pin 3) +Ve supply pin. The module will generate RF when VCC is present. It is strongly recommended that a 100nF capacitor decouples the supply rail as close as possible to this pin. GND (pin 4) Supply and data ground connection, connected to pin 1. Data IN (pin 5) This input has an impedance of 47K and should ideally be driven by a CMOS logic drive or compatible. The drive circuitry should be supplied with the same supply voltage as the Tx module.

The following will assist the designer in maximising system performance. The antenna should be kept as far away from sources of electrical interference as physically possible. If necessary, additional power line decoupling capacitors should be placed close to the module. The antenna ‘hot end’ should be kept clear of any objects, especially any metal as this can severely restrict the efficiency of the antenna to receive power. Any earth planes restricting the radiation path to the antenna will also have the same effect. Best range is achieved with either a straight piece of wire, rod or PCB track @ ¼ wavelength (15.5cm @ 433.92MHz). Further range may be achieved if the ¼ wave antenna is placed perpendicular in the middle of a solid earth plane measuring at least 16cm radius. In this case, the antenna should be connected to the module via some 50 ohm characteristic impedance coax.
