BiM3A
|
| The
BiM3A radio transceiver module is similar in size and pinout
to the BiM2, offering all the advantages of the latter but with
reduced power consumption and antenna size. The BiM3A replaces
the obsolte BiM3.
The BiM3A suited to battery-powered portable and handheld
equipment requiring a high degree of miniaturisation.
Two frequency variants are available as standad to suit applications
in Europe or North America.

The BiM3A
is a half duplex radio transceiver module for use in bidirectional
data transfer applications at ranges up to 200 metres. Two frequency
variants are available for licence-exempt operation in either the
European 868-870MHz or North American 902-928MHz bands. Internal voltage
regulation is incorporated allowing operation from DC supplies of
2.7V to 6V.
The small footprint of 33 x 23mm and low profile of 5mm facilitate
convenient integration onto a motherboard. The raw data rate capability
of 64kbps supports high data throughput in 'streaming' applications,
or alternatively allows efficient airtime utilisation in multi-node
scanning networks. |
