Linx Technologies' NT Series Transceiver Now Available

NT Series Transceiver
Now Available in 868 MHz for European Market
July 3, 2013 — The new
868 MHz NT Series RF transceiver module from Linx makes it simple to send and receive
digital data in the 863 to 870 MHz band. The module offers the option of UART or True Transparency™
interfaces which lets the user create a wireless wire for use with nonstandard data rates, custom
protocols, or encodings such as PWM and Manchester. The module features best-in-class receive
sensitivity (up to −113 dBm) and low power consumption (only 19.2 mA in receive mode
and 16mA in transmit mode at 0 dBm).
 Unlike
so-called transparent modules that require a UART interface and buffering scheme, the True Transparency™
feature of the NT Series reduces latency by transmitting raw data. All the user has to do is
connect circuitry to the input line of the sending transceiver and the output line of the receiving
transceiver. The module is completely hardware-configurable up to 8 channels. Although programming
is not required, the NT Series has a UART interface that enables more advanced configuration
with a microcontroller, RS-232 interface or USB interface. The 868MHz version offers 68 channels,
which lets the user implement a frequency agility scheme such as frequency hopping or listen
before talk.
The module has a maximum output power of +12.5 dBm and a receiver sensitivity
of –113 dBm. This gives the module a typical line of sight range of up to 4 kilometers
(2.5 miles) at the maximum output power with typical monopole whip antennas. Regulations
in the country of operation dictate the maximum legal output power, so the final system range
may be less depending on the country of operation. Typical range at 0 dBm is up to 914
meters (3,000 feet).
To aid rapid development, the NT Series transceiver is available
as part of a master development system. The system comes with two development boards for benchmarking
and prototyping, each of which is populated with a transceiver. The boards include lights that
show you which areas are active as well as other enhancements that simplify the development
experience. To help you get started, the system also includes antennas, a daughter board with
a USB interface, demonstration software, extra modules and connectors.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
