GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SX1231H is a highly integrated RF transceiver capable
of operation over a wide frequency range, including the 433,
868 and 915 MHz license-free ISM (Industry Scientific and
Medical) frequency bands. Its highly integrated architecture
allows for a minimum of external components whilst
maintaining maximum design flexibility. All major RF
communication parameters are programmable and most of
them can be dynamically set. The SX1231H offers the
unique advantage of programmable narrow-band and wide-
band communication modes without the need to modify
external components. The SX1231H is optimized for low
power consumption while offering high RF output power and
channelized operation. TrueRF™ technology enables a low-
cost external component count (elimination of the SAW
filter) whilst still satisfying ETSI and FCC regulations.
