STMicroelectronics S2-LP Ultra-Low Power, Sub-1GHz Transceivers

STMicroelectronics S2-LP Ultra-Low Power, High Performance, Sub-1GHz Transceivers are designed for RF wireless applications. The S2-LP Transceivers operate in the  license-free ISM and SRD frequency bands at 433MHz, 512MHz, 868MHz, and 920MHz. The Transceivers can also be programmed to operate at other additional frequencies in the 413MHz to 479MHz, 452MHz to 527MHz, 826MHz to 958MHz, and 904MHz to 1055MHz bands.

The S2-LP supports the 2(G)FSK, 4(G)FSK, OOK, and ASK modulation schemes. The air data rate is programmable from 0.1kbps to 500kbps. The S2-LP Transceiver can be used in systems with channel spacing down to 1kHz enabling the narrow band operations.

The S2-LP shows an RF link budget higher than 140dB for long communication ranges and meets the regulatory requirements applicable in territories worldwide, including Europe, Japan, China, and the USA.
