No IFs about it: transceiver prolongs
battery life

Available now from Low Power Radio Solutions is the latest transceiver from Circuit Design.

Available now from Low Power Radio Solutions is the latest transceiver from Circuit Design The STD-403 is a fully self-contained eight-channel wideband transceiver module optimised for low-power-consumption high-speed half-duplex telemetry applications, and is fully compliant with ETSI standard EN300-220-1 for operation in the harmonised European 433-434MHz band

The new device combines a quadrature modulated transmitter with a direct conversion receiver.

The received signal is directly down-converted to baseband, thereby eliminating the need for any intermediate frequency circuitry.

Not only does this architecture reduce power consumption over competing designs, it also improves the switch-over time between transmission and reception, as well as providing high stability in the RF circuitry.

The STD-403 can operate on eight channels in the 434MHz band, with sustained datarates up to 19.2Kbit/s (maximum 56Kbit/s), and so is ideal for applications requiring medium-speed two-way communication, such as industrial remote controls with feedback and bidirectional data telemetry.

Measuring just 50 x 30 x 7mm, the module has a wide operating voltage range from 2.7 to 12V, and typically consumes only 36mA while transmitting and 24mA when receiving, making it suitable for portable battery-powered applications such as credit-card swipe units.
