Overview

The R9A06G062GNP#AC1 is a sub-GHz wireless transceiver specifically designed for IEEE 802.15.4 standards, supporting SUN FSK and SUN OFDM modulations. It operates in the 863 MHz to 928 MHz frequency range, making it suitable for regional ISM bands and utility-scale networking. This RF transceiver is optimized for low-power operation, drawing as little as 0.5 uA in sleep mode while providing up to +15 dBm output power.

Why Choose This Part

This device features hardware-accelerated CSMA-CA and 16/32-bit auto CRC to reduce the processing burden on the host MCU. It offers flexible modulation options with high output power efficiency, reaching 62.0 mA for +15 dBm SUN-FSK transmissions. The internal voltage regulators and 13 GPIO pins simplify integration into space-constrained 40-WFQFN designs.

Applications

Smart Utility Metering
Optimized for SUN-FSK and SUN-OFDM modulations used in Wi-SUN compliant smart grid infrastructure.
