lamaPLC Communication: NRF24

nRF2401 is a single-chip radio transceiver for the world wide 2.4 - 2.5 GHz ISM band. The transceiver consists of a fully integrated frequency synthesizer, a power amplifier, a crystal oscillator and a modulator. Output power and frequency channels are easily programmable by use of the 3-wire serial interface. Current consumption is very low, only 10.5mA at an output power of -5dBm and 18mA in receive mode. Built-in Power Down modes makes power saving easily realizable.

• True single chip GFSK transceiver in a small 24-pin package (QFN24 5x5mm) • Data rate 0 to 1 Mbps • Only 2 external components • Multi channel operation

  • 125 channels
  • Channel switching time <200µs.
  • Support frequency hopping

• Data slicer / clock recovery of data • Address and CRC computation • DuoCeiver™ for simultaneous dual receiver topology • ShockBurst™ mode for ultra-low power operation and relaxed MCU performance • Power supply range: 1.9 to 3.6 V • Low supply current (TX), typical 10.5mA peak @ -5dBm output power • Low supply current (RX), typical 18mA peak in receive mode • 100% RF tested • No need for external SAW filter • World wide use
