  • Page 5: Overview

    The A1101R04C has received regulatory approvals for modular devices in Europe (ETSI). The modular approval allows the OEM or end user to place A1101R04C with an approved antenna inside a finished product without having to perform costly regulatory testing for an intentional radiator.

    1.2. Theory of Operation The A1101R04C is designed for low power wireless applications in the European band of 433.05 MHz to 434.79 MHz. It can be used to implement a variety of networks, including point to point, point to multipoint, peer to peer and mesh networks.
  • Page 7 Idle mode, from which it can quickly re- enter receive or transmit mode, or a low power sleep mode, from which a crystal startup is also required prior to transmit or receive operation. Below a block diagram is given for the A1101R04C module.  Antenna o The antenna couples energy between the air and the AIR module.

    3.3. Pin Out The A1101R04C radio module shares a common pin-out and foot print with other Anaren modules using different frequencies, thus enabling easy changeover from one to another, e.g. if changing the frequency, antenna scheme, or adaptive antenna tuning is desired. Below the common footprint is shown.

Internal RF output connection used during test. Connecting this pin to anything will require recertification for intentional radiators.

  • Page 19: Recommended Layout (Dimensions In Mm)

    The A1101R04C radio module has an integral ferrite bead in the supply line from pin 18 (Vdd) and a decoupling capacitance to reduce any noise on the incoming power supply line. This arrangement will eliminate most supply voltage noise.
