It is designed to operate in low-power multi- channel programmable or single-channel stand-alone, half-duplex data transmission systems. It can be used for applications in automotive, industrial-scientific-medical (ISM), short range devices (SRD) or similar appli- cations operating in the frequency range of 300 MHz to 930 MHz. In programmable user mode, the trans- ceiver can operate down to 27 MHz by using an external VCO varactor diode. 39010 07122 Page 1 of 45 Data Sheet Rev. 012 Nov/15 IN IFA VCC IF LF IN DEM VEE PLL
