SKY66100-11

DATA SHEET SKY66100-11: 169 to 170 MHz Transmit/Receive Front-End Module Applications Description  Automated meter reading The SKY66100-11 is a high-performance, transmit/receive (Tx/Rx) front-end module (FEM). The device includes a power amplifier (PA) capable of more than +27 dBm of transmit output power at more than 45 percent PAE for the module (55 percent for the standalone PA). For current-sensitive applications, the PA can be bypassed to save battery current.  Advanced metering infrastructure  ISM systems Features All functionality can be controlled by a three-wire interface. The FEM can be placed in a deep “sleep” mode, drawing less than 1 μA of current.  Transmit output power: >+27 dBm  High efficiency PA The receive chain consists of a low-loss single-pole, triple-throw (SP3T) switch, which provides an insertion loss of approximately 0.4 dB. Three separate VCC pins enable maximum RF isolation.  Receive loss:
