CML has enhanced the facilities and improved the performance of its CMX850 single-chip communications controller.
Enhanced baseband codec for modern digital radio
The CMX981 is an extremely-low-power advanced digital-radio baseband processor, combined on-chip with a voice codec/processor and an audio PA.
The EV9900A is a flexible platform to allow users to configure and evaluate the CMX990 for various applications and frequency bands.
Initial configuration is for 410-430MHz operation with 25kHz channel spacing at 9600bit/s.
The EV9902 provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for the EV9900A kit.
The kit is supplied as a Hyperstone hyBoard-XS evaluation board plus interface PCB, together with GUI software for a PC.
The EV9902 connects simply to a Windows-based PC via a standard USB cable.
The interface to the EV9900A is also supplied.
The GUI software allows users to directly write to and read from the CMX990 registers and perform real-time tasks for Mobitex or free-format frame transfers live over a RF link.
The GUI software will calculate the CMX990 register values required to generate the user's desired PLL frequencies and bit rates.
The hyBoard-XS evaluation board is supplied preloaded with firmware, allowing real-time operations to be performed.
The CMX990 is a complete, low-power, single-chip wireless M2M (machine to machine) GMSK modem solution, available in a no-leads 64-pin VQFN package, with no minimum order quantity.
