XE1203F
XE1203F
433 MHz / 868 MHz / 915 MHz
Low-Power, Integrated UHF Transceiver
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XE1203F is a single chip transceiver operating in
the 433, 868 and 915 MHz license-free ISM (Industry
Scientific and Medical) frequency bands. Its highly
integrated architecture allows for minimum external
components while maintaining design flexibility. All
major
RF
communication
parameters
are
programmable and most of them can be dynamically
set. The XE1203F offers the excellent advantage of
high data rate communication at rates of up to 152.3
kbit/s, without the need to modify the number or
parameters of the external components. The
XE1203F is optimized for low power consumption
while offering high RF output power and exceptional
receiver sensitivity. The device is suitable for
applications which have to satisfy either the European
(ETSI-300-220) or the North American (FCC part 15)
regulatory standards. TrueRF™ technology enables a
low –cost external component count (elimination of
the SAW filter) whilst still satisfying ETSI and FCC
regulations.
