Complies with European harmonised standards EN 300 220 and EN 301 489 869.85MHz 5mW 100% duty cycle or 868.30MHz 8mW 1% duty cycle RF power output +9dBm (8mW) on 868.30MHz +7dBm (5mW) on 869.85MHz Data rates up to 64kbps Crystal controlled PLL FM transmit circuitry ·Supply: 2.9V - 16V @ 14mA (8mW) 32 x 12.5 x 3.8mm Available for operation in the 868-870MHz band in Europe, it combine full screening with internal filtering to ensure EMC compliance by minimising spurious radiation and susceptibility. The TX3B and matching RX3A will suit one-to-one and multi-node wireless links in such applications as car and building security, EPOS and inventory tracking, remote industrial process monitoring and data networks. Because of their small size and low power requirements, both modules are ideal for use in portable, battery-powered applications such as hand-held terminals. Applications ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
