Specifications are subject to change without prior notice
Notice
The time required until a stable DO is established may get longer due to the possible frequency drift
caused by operation environment changes, especially when switching from TX to RX, from RX to TX and
changing channels. Please make sure to optimize the timing. The recommended preamble is more than
20 ms.
Antenna connection is designed as pin connection.
RF output power, sensitivity, spurious emission and spurious radiation levels may vary with the pattern
used between the RF pin and the coaxial connection. Please make sure to verify those parameters
before use.
The feet of the shield case should be soldered to the wide GND pattern to avoid any change in
characteristics.
Notes about the specification values
*1 BER: RF level where no error per 2556 bits is confirmed with the signal of PN9 and 4800 bps.
*2 BER (1 % error) : RF level where 1% error per 2556 bits is confirmed with the signal of PN9 and 4800 bps.
*3 Time until valid Data-out : Valid DO is determined at the point where Bit Error Rate meter starts detecting
the signal of 4800 bps, 1010 repeated signal.
All specifications are specified based on the data measured in a shield room using the PLL setting controller
board prepared by Circuit Design.
