Verge Inc – VA-A-10049 Module Integration Guide – rev1.0
Overview
The VA-A-10049 module is a low-power 915MHz and 2.4GHz transceiver. The module uses a dual-
band Atmel AT86RF215 baseband module which supports modulation schemes compatible with
IEEE 802.15.4 (SUN-PHY). The module also features an on-board 2Kbit I2C EEPROM that provides
non-volatile memory for radio parameter storage as well as provides a pre-programmed globally
unique 64-bit address used for node identification. The VA-A-10049 module deploys a card-edge
based connection, described below, for power and digital communications with a host. Compliant
antennas can be connected to both of the bands via on-board u.FL connectors.
