rf-star asr6505 433mhz lorawan linkwan uart lora module
the rf-al42uhb2 is a general lora wireless communication module, with integrated lora radio transceiver, lora modem and an 8-bit cisc mcu. the mcu uses an advanced stm 8-bit core, with 16 mhz operation frequency. the lora radio transceiver has continuous frequency coverage from 410 mhz to 525 mhz. the lora modem supports lora modulation for lpwan use cases and (g)fsk modulation for legacy use cases. the lora wireless communication module designed by asr6505 provides ultra-long range and ultra-low power communication for lpwan application.
the rf-al42uhb2 can achieve a high sensitivity of over -140 dbm and the maximum transmit power is higher than 22 dbm. this makes it suitable to be used in long range lpwan and have high efficiency. the total chip package is of very small size, with totally 48 pins.
