High Performance Channel Programmable TransceiverLMD-401

The LMD-401 is a low power narrow band synthesized transceiver with GFSK modulation. It is designed for use in the licensed band in North America and USA.

This is designed for use under FCC Part 90 Private Land Mobile Radio (PLMR) services and the ISED RSS-119 Industry Canada standard.
This simple, compact and low power transceiver is designed for embedding in user equipment and suitable for various low power industrial telecontrol and telemetry applications requiring high performance and reliability.

All high frequency circuits are enclosed inside a robust housing to provide superior resistance against shock and vibration. Using a TCXO as the reference oscillator circuit of the radio component ensures high frequency stability in wide temperature range.

Evaluation Tools: TB-STD302

The test board TB-STD302 is equipped with a CPU which controls the PLL IC in the LMD-401.
Without making a PLL control program, you can perform data communication and range tests with the TB-STD302.

TB-STD302 does not include modules LMD-401. Please make sure to order it if needed.
