RECEIVER, 434.65MHZ

NRX2-434.650-10

Manufacturer Part Number
NRX2-434.650-10
Description
RECEIVER, 434.65MHZ
Manufacturer
RADIOMETRIX
Datasheet
The NTX2 transmitter and NRX2 receiver
offer a low power, reliable data link in a
Radiometrix SIL standard pin out and
foot print. This makes the NTX2/NRX2
pair ideally suited to those low power
applications where existing single
frequency wideband UHF modules have
insufficient range. NTX2 HP (25mW)
variant can be used in applications
where greater radiated power is desired
(for example when space limitations
dictate the use of small and inefficient
antenna, or in countries where the extra
power is permitted)

Features
Available for licence-exempt operation in the 433MHz (EU) and 458MHz (UK) bands, the NTX2 &
NRX2 modules combine effective screening with internal filtering to minimise spurious radiation and
susceptibility thereby ensuring EMC compliance. They can be used in existing low data rate (<10kbps)
applications where the operating range of the system using TX2 transmitter and RX2 receiver need to
be extended. They are particularly suitable for point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless links
where longer ranges are required at low data rates. Applications include sensor nodes, EPOS and
inventory tracking, remote industrial process monitoring, telemetry, telecommand and telecontrol.
Because of their small size and low power consumption, both modules are ideal for use in battery-
powered portable applications such as handheld terminals.
