Remote control transmitters need no licence
RF Solutions has launched a series of rugged, licence-exempt hand-held radio transmitter encoders for remote control applications designed to operate in harsh and outdoor environments
The thick-film ceramic hybrid technology based modules are available in 315, 433 and 868MHz versions.
The transmitter and receiver pair enables the implementation of a wireless link with a datarate of up to 9.6Kbit/s, at distances up to 75m indoors, and 250m open ground.
The FM-RTFQ2 and FM-RRFQ2 are suitable for both one-to-one and multinode links.
FM-RTFQ2 transmitters are housed in a SIL package that occupies a minimal amount of PCB real estate and has overall dimensions of 30.48 x 10.67 x 2mm.
The compact design usefully incorporates a voltage regulator that allows the modules to be connected to a supply of between 3 and 12V.
FM-RRFQ2 receivers are also housed in a SIL package and measure 45.72 x 16.5 x 3mm thick; they require a supply voltage of 5V.
The PLL crystal based design features both CMOS/TTL and RSSI outputs.
The hybrid technology used in the new modules results in no adjustable components and enables them to exhibit extremely stable electronic characteristics across an industrial temperature range of -20 to +85C.
