Overview

The RTK0EE0013D10002BJ is an evaluation kit for the Renesas R9A06G062 transceiver, designed for 802.15.4 based Wi-SUN communications. This board operates in the 863MHz to 870MHz sub-GHz frequency band, targeting large-scale wireless mesh networks in utility and smart city infrastructure. It provides a hardware platform to validate the R9A06G062's performance in low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) environments.

Why Choose This Part

The kit allows for rapid prototyping of Wi-SUN FAN (Field Area Network) applications with a transceiver optimized for high interference environments. Operating within the 863MHz to 870MHz range, it ensures compliance with European regional wireless standards while maintaining a compact 66.5mm by 92mm form factor.

Applications

Smart Metering
Deployment in electricity, gas, and water meters for reliable automated meter reading (AMR) using Wi-SUN mesh networking.
Industrial IoT Sensor Nodes
Connecting remote sensors in factory or outdoor environments where sub-GHz penetration is required for long-range data transmission.
Smart City Lighting
Managing municipal street lighting systems via standardized 802.15.4 protocols for energy efficiency and maintenance.
