STA2500DCTR

Introduction

STA2500DCTR a radio frequency (RF) transceiver integrated circuit (IC) designed for embedded applications. It enables instant integration of radio technologies and provides the user with a very cost-effective and easy-to-implement solution. In addition, the integrated system features a low-power consumption and an optimized total phase noise floor performance for better signal quality.

Application Field

The STA2500DCTR is suitable for a wide range of embedded applications such as wireless sensor networks, industrial applications, AMR (Automatic Meter Reading) systems, smart metering solutions, healthcare monitoring, environmental monitoring, remote control and surveillance systems.

The RF transceiver IC is designed for low-cost embedded system applications, and it allows the designer to create a cost-effective communication system without any complex or expensive co-design efforts. The IC is integrated with an efficient demodulator and mixer to reduce the current consumption to a very low level. Moreover, although it has an adjustable range from 4MHz to 2150MHz, the STA2500DCTR has a fixed operating frequency of 25MHz.

Working Principle

The STA2500DCTR consists of several blocks, including a radio frequency (RF) transceiver, an accumulative counter, a demodulator, a mixer, and a transmitter.

The RF transceiver is responsible for converting the input signal into a frequency-modulated (FM) signal and for demodulating the received FM signal. The accumulative counter is responsible for tracking the frequency of the incoming signal, and it is also responsible for calculating the output signal\'s data rate. The demodulator is responsible for extracting the signal\'s data from the received and for amplifying the data. Then the mixer is responsible for shifting the frequency of the demodulated data. Finally, the transmitter is responsible for converting the mixer output into a transmitted signal.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the STA2500DCTR is an integrated radio frequency (RF) transceiver IC designed for embedded applications. It is an ideal choice for a wide range of embedded applications such as wireless sensor networks, industrial applications, AMR systems, smart metering solutions, healthcare monitoring, and environmental monitoring. The STA2500DCTR has an adjustable range from 4MHz to 2,150MHz and a fixed operating frequency of 25MHz. It consists of a radio frequency transceiver, an accumulative counter, a demodulator, a mixer, and a transmitter, each of which performs its own function in order to produce an accurate output signal.
