Transceiver modules
An IQRF transceiver module (TR) is a tiny intelligent electronic board with complete circuitry needed for realization of wireless RF connectivity. It is a basic communication component of the IQRF platform, used also in all IQRF gateways, routers etc.
Features
- License-free ISM bands 868 MHz and 916 MHz
- Compact highly integrated design
- No external components required
- Very small: 20.2 x 14.9 mm (SMT), 25.0 x 14.9 mm (SIM)
- Microcontroller with operating system supporting MESH
- Up to 12 I/O pins, up to 3 analog inputs (A/D)
- RF, SPI, UART and I2C interfaces supported
- All IQRF TRs are bidirectional. It implies:
