Product Summary

The NRF2401AG is a single-chip radio transceiver for the world wide 2.4 - 2.5 GHz ISM band. The transceiver consists of a fully integrated frequency synthesizer, a power amplifier, a crystal oscillator and a modulator. Output power and frequency channels are easily programmable by use of the 3-wire serial interface. Current consumption is very low, only 10.5mA at an output power of -5dBm and 18mA in receive mode. Built-in Power Down modes makes power saving easily realizable. The applications of the NRF2401AG include Wireless mouse, keyboard, joystick, Keyless entry, Wireless data communication, Alarm and security systems, Home automation, Surveillance, Automotive, Telemetry, Intelligent sports equipment, Industrial sensors, Toys.
