RF to USB Reference Design

RF-to-USB2-RD

The RF to USB Reference Design is a simple tool to demonstrate, evaluate and develop with Silicon Labs´ low power sub-gigahertz MCUs. The kit features two Si1014 Wireless MCU-based node boards, a dongle based on the Si4431 transceiver and C8051F342 USB microcontroller, programming adapter and accessories

As a demonstration, the kit shows a typical wireless data collection example in which low power sensing nodes transmit data to a PC application via a USB node. The sensing nodes sleep in a low-power mode, running directly off of a single AAA battery, until activated by a key press.

As a development tool, the kit included two user-programmable wireless sensor nodes, a programming adapter and example code. This enables rapid prototyping of a user application on a realistic hardware platform. Design files and example code make adding wireless functionality to products simple.
