Compact narrowband radio modules for industrial use, now with multiple channels
Circuit Design, Inc., the leading supplier of narrowband radio modules, has begun sale of the small multi-channel transmitter CDP-TX-05M-R and receiver CDP-RX-05M-R. The CDP-TX-05M-R and CDP-RX-05M-R include nearly all the parts necessary for industrial-use radio transmission in a small and robust shielding case.
TheyWhile the earlier models had just one RF channel, the new models are programmed with four channels. In addition, within the main ISM frequency band* of Sub-1 GHz, the frequency table can be customized according to the customer's requirements.
* 426 MHz in Japan, 434 MHz, 869 MHz in Europe, 915 MHz in the US
Using a TCXO as the reference oscillator circuit of the radio component ensures high frequency stability, and while the operating temperature range of the earlier product was -10°C to +60°C, in the new product it is increased to -20°C to +65°C.
With the output of 10 mW * authorized for narrow band FM and double superheterodyne receivers with high receive sensitivity in the European harmonized ISM band, a communication range of 600 m (line-of-sight) is possible.
* 5 mW in 869 MHz, 1 mW in 426 MHz, 0.5 mW in 915 MHz
