RF Design

29 April 2015 News

A diverse cross-section of technologies for radio frequency applications will be exhibited by RF Design.

The AX-Sigfox and AX-Sigfox-API are Axsem’s latest single-chip solutions for nodes on the Sigfox network. Based on a star-type cell infrastructure and operating across licence-free spectrum, this emerging network fulfils the ultra-low-power and wide coverage demands placed on devices forming part of the Internet of Things.

Globalstar has reduced the size of its STX satellite transmitter by two thirds to help its customers design and build compact and efficient communication devices. Using the Globalstar Simplex data network, the STX3 opens up new opportunities for integrating satellite connectivity into compact products used for vehicle and asset tracking, remote data reporting and data-logger reporting.

The nRF51 DK is a low-cost, single-board development kit for Bluetooth Smart, ANT and 2,4 GHz proprietary systems using Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF51 system-on-chips. It is hardware compatible with the Arduino Uno Revision 3 standard, and supports a development toolchain using Keil, IAR, GCC and ARM’s mbed.
