RC-TXASK-868.95

RF Transmitter Overview

The RC-TXASK-868.95 is an ASK radio transmitter module operating at a fixed frequency of 868.95 MHz. It utilizes On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation for data transmission. The device is housed in a dual-in-line package and requires a 3.3V supply voltage. Internal components include a crystal oscillator to ensure frequency stability. This module functions as a dedicated RF transmitter within the sub-1GHz band, designed for integration into wireless sensor networks and IoT applications requiring simple amplitude-based signaling.

RF Transmitter Feature Summary

• Operates using Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) modulation technique
• Integrated crystal oscillator for stable frequency generation
• Designed for low-voltage operation at 3.3V
• Compact dual-in-line physical form factor

RF Transmitter Applications

• Wireless sensor network nodes
• IoT telemetry devices
• Simple remote control systems
• Sub-1GHz data transmission links

RF Transmitter Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix to confirm the exact center frequency of 868.95 MHz, as variations exist within the product line. Ensure the host system provides a stable 3.3V power rail compatible with the module's electrical requirements. Confirm that the application protocol supports ASK/OOK demodulation on the receiving end. Check for any regional regulatory restrictions regarding transmission power and duty cycles in the 868 MHz ISM band before deployment.

RF Transmitter Selection Notes

Select this component when a dedicated transmitter solution is required rather than a full transceiver. It is suitable for applications where bidirectional communication is not necessary, reducing system complexity. Consider the fixed frequency constraint; if frequency agility is needed, other models in the catalog may be more appropriate. Evaluate the range requirements against the capabilities of ASK modulation compared to FSK or LoRa alternatives.
