Active29 in stock

Overview

The LAMBDA62-8S is a high-performance LoRa transceiver module operating in the 868MHz band, featuring the Semtech SX1262 silicon. It provides long-range wireless communication with exceptional sensitivity down to -148dBm and a high power output of up to +22dBm.

Why Choose This Part

The module offers a wide supply voltage range from 1.8V to 3.7V and includes a high-efficiency integrated power amplifier capable of +22dBm. Its low power architecture, featuring a 160nA shutdown mode, makes it suitable for multi-year battery operation in remote sensor nodes.

Applications

Smart Agriculture
Ideal for soil moisture and environmental monitoring across large farms due to its long-range LoRa modulation.
Industrial Telemetry
Reliable data transmission in noisy industrial environments using FSK or GFSK modulation for shorter range high-speed links.
Remote Meter Reading
Enables battery-powered utility meters to transmit data from basement or underground locations to a central gateway.
