Detailed Product Description

Overview:

The RDSRF-232-A4FZ is a single board high performance and low power serial to wireless solution that can be used to add wireless to any system with serial output. It is a complete plug and play system where the user can connect two boards and start a wireless communication between them instantaneously. RFSRF-232-4FZ can be easily integrated to existing systems without tedious software and hardware changes. These boards are intended to be used with systems which already have a serial interface. This device has a link budget of 120 dB making it suitable for applications that require a robust communication over a range of 500 meters line of sight.

1. Covers over a range of 500 meters line of sight depending upon the baud rate
2. Standard Frequency: 433 MHz
3. Serial to RF converter with built-in level converter and antenna
4. User configurable serial and RF baud rate, packet size and RF power output
5. Operates on international ISM band frequencies
6. Transparent UART to Antenna solution
7. Low power using 3 or 5V DC supply
8. Serial and RF baud rates ranging from 1.2 kbps to 115.2 kbps available
9. Inbuilt FEC and CRC error detection
10. Better than 120 dB link budget for robust communication interface
11. Easier to interface LCD, Keypad, Sensors and Relays
12. 17 I/O lines can be utilized to interface external devices
13. CSMA-CA protocol to avoid false triggers and collisions
