Description
The RF Transmitter and Receiver Module is a popular wireless communication system designed to transmit and receive data over short to medium distances. This module is often used in various electronics projects, including remote control systems, wireless data transmission, and IoT applications.
Key Features
- Wireless Communication: Enables wireless data transmission and reception over a short range (typically up to 100 meters, depending on environmental factors).
- Compact Design: Small size for easy integration into various projects.
- Low Power Consumption: Ideal for battery-powered applications.
- Easy to Use: Simple interfacing with microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and others.
- Data Rate: Supports standard communication speeds for basic data transmission.
Specifications
- Operating Voltage: 3.3V – 5V DC
- Operating Frequency: 433 MHz (for commonly used RF modules)
- Range: Up to 100 meters (depending on environment and antenna used)
- Modulation Type: Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK)
- Data Transmission Speed: 1 kbps to 10 kbps
- Transmitter Output Power: 10mW
- Receiver Sensitivity: -100dBm
- Interface: Digital signal input/output for microcontroller connection (usually via GPIO pins)
Applications
- Wireless Communication: Used in systems where wired communication is impractical or too costly.
- Remote Control Systems: Such as for controlling robots, appliances, or home automation systems.
- Wireless Sensors: For remote monitoring and IoT applications.
- Alarm Systems: For sending signals from remote sensors to a central unit.
- Data Transfer: Simple wireless data transmission in hobbyist electronics.
How It Works
- The RF Transmitter module takes digital data from a microcontroller (e.g., Arduino) and transmits it over the air using RF waves at a specific frequency (commonly 433 MHz).
- The RF Receiver module captures the RF signals and converts them back into digital data, which can be processed by a microcontroller or other connected system.
- The data sent can range from simple commands (e.g., turning on an LED) to more complex data streams (e.g., sensor readings or control signals).
Package Includes
- 1 x RF Transmitter Module
- 1 x RF Receiver Module
- 2 x Antennas (for improved range)
