• Differential antenna input/output
• Automatic antenna tuning
• Programmable TX frequency deviation (from 15 to 240 KHz)
• Programmable receiver bandwidth (from 67 to 400 kHz)
• Analog and digital signal strength indicator (ARSSI/DRSSI)
• Automatic frequency control (AFC)
• Data quality detection (DQD)
• Internal data filtering and clock recovery
• RX synchron pattern recognition
• SPI compatible serial control interface
• Clock and reset signal output for external MCU use
• 16 bit RX Data FIFO
• Two 8 bit TX data registers
• Standard 10 MHz crystal reference
• Wakeup timer
• 2.2V - 3.8V power supply
• Low power consumption
• Standby current less than 0.3uA
