TR-916-SC-PA

TR-916-SC-PA Datasheet

The PA version of Linx popular SC Series greatly reduces the time and expense of making a product wireless. This is because the transceiver module is pre-approved by the FCC when used with the appropriate proprietary antennas.The TR-XXX-SC-PA transceiver module is designed for the cost-effective, bi-directional transfer of wireless information. The Transceiver utilizes an advanced synthesized superhet architecture and has direct interface for analog or digital information, UART-compatible data output, RSSI, low power consumption, wide operational voltage, on-board TX/RX switch, SAW front-end filter, and many other useful features. Fast turnaround times, along with the support for data rates to 33.6Kbps, make the transceiver suitable for a wide range of applications. Housed in a compact through-hole package, the transceiver requires no tuning or external RF components except antenna , allowing for straightforward application, even by engineers lacking previous RF experience.
