868MHz Transceiver Development Kits Features:

Windows-compatible software provides development utilities, allowing OEMs to quickly begin performing tests for configuration modes, range measurements, antenna evaluations, power management and data throughput. Designers can easily program the transceivers to any desired configuration with the EEPROM Viewer/Editor feature.
Configuration parameters stored in EEPROM used to customize the Serial Interface Mode for general system setup. The modules ship with default parameters already configured to enable plug-and-play; these can be changed using development tools or with custom interfaces developed by the OEM.

Size, speed, range, power consumption and cost are all important issues to engineers integrating RF connectivity. Laird Technologies addresses these issues with compact 2.4GHz, 900MHz & 868MHz transceivers. Designed for fast OEM integration, our radios suit applications where both high reliability and long range are essential.
Laird Technologies' design kits provide a complete development environment to help engineers get up and running with our solutions in a matter of minutes. Each system includes the transceivers and accessories required to install and test RF, allowing for reduced R&D costs, quick agency certification and fast time to market.
