EVAL-***-ES
ES Series Basic Evaluation Kit
*** = 868, 916MHz
Linx ES Series RF modules offer a simple, efficient, and cost-effective method of
adding wireless communication capabilities to any product. The Basic Evaluation Kit
is intended to give a designer all the tools necessary to correctly and legally
incorporate the ES Series modules into an end product. The development boards
themselves serve several important functions:
• Rapid Module Evaluation - The boards allow the performance of the Linx ES
Series modules to be evaluated quickly in a user’s environment.
• Range Testing - Using the on-board encoders and decoders to generate a
simplex transmission, a pair of development boards can be used to evaluate the
range performance of the modules.
• Design Benchmark - During the design process of your product, the boards
provide a known benchmark against which the performance of your own design
can be judged.
• Application Development - An on-board prototyping area is provided to allow a
designer to develop applications directly on the development board. All signal
lines are available on a breakout header for easy connection to the designer’s
circuits.
The purpose of this guide is to show the designer how to take full advantage of the
basic development boards included with the kit.
The kit includes 2 ES Series transmitters*, 2 ES Series receivers*, 2 extra PCB-
mount RP-SMA connectors, 2 development boards, 2 CW Series antennas, 2
CR2032 batteries, and full documentation.
*One part is soldered to the board, one extra for use on your first prototype board.
