AF
DC coupled input for 3V CMOS logic. Rin = 100kΩ
500mV pk-pk audio. DC coupled, approx 0.8V bias
RXD Received Data output from the internal data slicer. Output will have
a rail to rail output swing (i.e. 0 -Vcc depending on the supply
voltage). Suitable for Biphase codes

RSSI DC level between 0.5V and 2V. 60dB dynamic range
NOTES:
1. RX and TX have internal (10kΩ approx.) pull-up to Vcc
2. EN pin should not be left floating
3. For Vcc greater than 9V, transmit duty cycle must be limited to 25% or less
4. Avoid RX and TX both low: undefined module operation (but damage will not result)
5. A 10mW UK version is available on 173.225MHz. (3-16V operation, 10mA TX)
6. Pin out is as BiM2. On RF connector end only pins 1, 2, 3, 9 are present.
