EVAL-916-ES: 916 MHz Simplex Transmission

Linx ES Series RF modules offer a simple, efficient, and cost-effective method of adding wireless communication capabilities to any product. The Basic Evaluation Kit gives a designer all the tools necessary to correctly and legally incorporate the ES Series modules into an end product. The development boards themselves serve several important functions:

• Rapid Module Evaluation: The boards allow the performance of the ES Series modules to be evaluated quickly in a user’s environment.

• Range Testing: Using the on-board encoders and decoders to generate a simplex transmission, a pair of development boards can be used to evaluate the range performance of the modules.

• Design Benchmark: The boards provide a known benchmark against which the performance of a custom design may be judged.

• Application Development: An onboard prototyping area allows for the development of custom circuits directly on the development board. All signal lines are available on a header for easy access.

The kit includes 2 ES Series transmitters*, 2 ES Series receivers*, 2 extra PCB-mount RP-SMA connectors, 2 development boards, 2 CW Series antennas, 2 CR2032 batteries, and full documentation.
