Radiocrafts Intros 500 mW High Power RF Module at 868 MHz
 Oslo,
Norway, 2009-12-15 -- Radiocrafts AS, a leading provider of compact RF modules, now expand their RC232
product line family with a completely new high power module, the
RC1180HP-RC232. The module is pin
compatible with the existing RC11xx-series, and enables extended range using the same low-cost design philosophy
applicable for the whole RC11xx product family.
 The
RC1180HP-RC232
(868 MHz) module is certified for operation up to 500 mW under the European radio regulations for license-free
use. When used with quarter-wave antennas a line-of-sight range of over 3 km can be achieved.
The compact
RC1180HP-RC232
module, measuring only 12.7 x 25.4 x 3.3 mm, sets a new standard of integrating high power technology into a
complete RF modem in one single tiny package, replacing tens of components compared to a discrete design. No
external components are required, except an antenna.
This miniaturisation of a high power module without compromising the design goals of providing a low cost high
performance module, is unique in the industry. The backward compatible properties, both hardware pin-out and the
embedded protocol, with the already existing RC11xx-RC232 series, makes the
RC1180HP-RC232
an ideal building block for both new and existing customers when range extension is required.
The module is
a complete RF system solution running on the existing industry proven RC232™ protocol, with an easy-to-use UART
interface for both configuration and communication. The embedded RC232™ protocol provides a point-to-multipoint
solution with individual addressing or broadcast, and CRC check for signal integrity. The module can also be used
as a wireless RS232 / RS485 cable replacement.
The module and Demo Kits are available now. The module is
delivered on tape and reel for volume production.
