Function
50Ω RF input from the antenna
RF Ground is internally connected to the module screen and pin 4 (0V).
These pins should be directly connected to the RF return path - e.g. coax
braid, main PCB ground plane etc.
Received Signal Strength Indicator with >60dB range.
DC level between 0.3V and 1.5V

audio. DC coupled, approx 1.4V bias
Received Data output from the internal data slicer. The data is squared
version of the Audio signal on pin 6 and is true data, i.e. as fed to the
transmitter. Output is "open-collector" format with internal 10kΩpull-up to
Vcc (pin 5). Suitable for bi-phase codes
Notes:
1. Pin out is as RX2A receiver
2. The unit can be offered in regulated (2.9 to 15v) or the cheaper +3v only (no regulator fitted)
versions
3. The standard version has no can, and mounts vertically on Batten and Allen leadframe pins. A
second version is for horizontal mounting with square header pins and an NRX2 case fitted
4. Standard version is 6mm thick. The horizontal (canned) unit is 8.5mm
