Low-power sub-GHz transceiver simplifies industrial wireless links
The ADF7024 transceiver is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including security and building automation. The short range transceiver is designed for use in the 433-MHz, 868-MHz, or 915-MHz ISM frequency bands, and is suitable for operation under European ETSI EN300-220 and North American FCC Part 15 regulations. ADI also introduced today ADRadioNet, (www.analog.com/ADRadioNet) a wireless protocol stack for low-power networks, and the EVAL-ADF7024MB4Z evaluation and development platform for use with the ADF7024 transceiver.
The AD7024 transceiver, $1.59 (1000) in 5 x 5-mm, 32-pin LFCSP features:
· Smart wake modes and fast mode transitions for low power consumption
· Ultra-low-power sleep modes for longer battery life
· Programmable output power up to +13.5 dBm in 0.5 dB steps
· Receiver sensitivity -111 dBm at 9.6 kbps
· Blocking: 76 dB at 10 MHz offset
ADRadioNet wireless protocol stack features;
· Self-healing, multi-hop wireless network
· Royalty-free when used with ADI transceivers
· Stateless routing; allows instantaneous recovery power up
· Network robustness through the use of channel diversity
The EVAL-ADF7024MB4Z evaluation and development platform ($200) features:
· Easy to use evaluation GUI
· Selectable radio profiles
· Example microcontroller code
