General Description

The SX1213 is a low cost single-chip receiver operating in the frequency ranges from 300MHz to 510MHz. The SX1213 is optimized for very low power consumption (3mA). It incorporates a baseband demodulator with data rates up to 200 kb/s. Data handling features include a sixty-four byte FIFO, packet handling, CRC and data whitening processing. Its highly integrated architecture allows for minimum external component count whilst maintaining design flexibility. All major RF communication parameters are programmable and most of them may be dynamically set. It complies with European (ETSI EN 300-220 V2.1.1) and North American (FCC part 15.247 and 15.249) regulatory standards.
