GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SX1233 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 SX1233 offers the unique
advantage of programmable narrow-band and wide-band
communication modes without the need to modify external
components. The SX1233 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.
SX1233 is pin to pin compatible with SX1231 and SX1239.
