Microchip Technology, Inc. AT86RF231

Description
Feature rich, low-power 2.4GHz transceiver designed for industrial and consumer IEEE 802.15.4, ZigBee, RF4CE, SP100, WirelessHART™, ISM, and high data rate applications. It is a true SPI-to-antenna solution providing a complete radio transceiver interface between the antenna and the microcontroller. It comprises the analog radio transceiver and the digital demodulation including time and frequency synchronization, and data buffering. All RF-critical components are integrated on a single chip minimizing the number of required external components to the antenna, crystal and decoupling capacitors. The bidirectional differential antenna pins, used for transmission and reception, eliminate the need for an external antenna switch. An internal 128 byte RAM buffers transmit and receive data. Two on chip low dropout (LDO) voltage regulators provide the internal analog and digital 1.8V supply. Microchip's complimentary and confidential Wireless Check online design review service is available for customers who have selected our products for their application design-in*. *The online design review service is subject to Microchip's Program Terms and Conditions and requires a myMicrochip account. Additional Features High Performance RF-CMOS 2.4 GHz Radio Transceiver Targeted for IEEE 802.15.4™, ZigBee®, 6LoWPAN, RF4CE, SP100, WirelessHART™ and ISM Applications Industry Leading Link Budget (104 dB) Receiver Sensitivity -101 dBm Programmable Output Power from -17 dBm up to +3 dBm Ultra-Low Current Consumption: SLEEP=0.02 μA TRX_OFF=0.4 mA RX_ON=12.3 mA BUSY_TX=14 mA (at max. Transmit Power of +3 dBm) Ultra-Low Supply Voltage (1.8V to 3.6V) with Internal Regulator Optimized for Low BoM Cost and Ease of Production: Few External Components Necessary (Crystal, Capacitors and Antenna) Excellent ESD Robustness Easy to Use Interface: Registers, Frame Buffer and AES Accessible through Fast SPI Only Two Microcontroller GPIO Lines Necessary One Interrupt Pin from Radio Transceiver Clock Output with Prescaler from Radio Transceiver
