| The TR8100 hybrid transceiver is ideal for short-range wireless data applications where robust
operation, small size, low power consumption and low cost are required. The TR8100 employs
RFM’s amplifier-sequenced hybrid (ASH) architecture to achieve this unique blend of characteristics.
All critical RF functions are contained in the hybrid, simplifying and speeding design-in.
The receiver section of the TR8100 is sensitive and stable. A wide dynamic range log detector,
in combination with digital AGC and a compound data slicer, provide robust performance in the
presence of on-channel interference or noise. Two stages of SAW filtering provide excellent receiver
out-of-band rejection. The transmitter uses an internal “digital modulation” BPSK spreading
code, with data carried by either OOK or ASK modulation. The transmitter employs SAW
filtering to suppress output harmonics, facilitating compliance with FCC 15.247 regulations. |

| The DR8100-DK kit allows for full demonstration or development of the third-generation (3G) TR8100 Virtual Wire
device. The kit provides “Out of the box” operation with or without the accompanying software. 2-way Range Test
capability is included by simply snapping on the included 9V battery, turn on power, and configuring the opposite
board for transmit. A small area is available for custom development with other popular microprocessors. The
DR8100 Data Radio boards are configured to operate at a data rate of 4.8 kbps. The kits are shipped with a pair of
data radio boards and matching antennas. Data Radio boards with antennas can be purchased separately for
development of applications.
Kit Includes:
• 2x USB 2.0 Cables
• 2x 9V batteries
• VWO Configuration software
• 2x tuned, SMA antennas
• 2x DR development boards
• CD with documentation |
