Pin description:
RF IN
(pin 1)
50Ω input from the antenna, DC isolated
RX2A
Radiometrix
RF GND
(pin 2)
RF ground pin, internally connected to
the module screen and pin 4 (0V). This
pin should be connected to the RF return
path (coax braid, main PCB ground plane
etc.)

Figure 5: Physical dimensions
Received signal strength indicator with 60dB range. See page 4 for typical characteristics.
RSSI
(pin 3)
0V
(pin 4)
DC supply ground. Internally connected to pin 2 and module screen.
Vcc
(pin 5)
+2.7V to +16.0V DC supply. Max ripple content 0.1Vp-p. Decoupling is not generally required.
AF out(pin 6)
Buffered and filtered analogue output from the FM demodulator. Standing DC bias 1.1V approx. External
load should be >10k // <100pF.
RXD
(pin 7)
Digital output from the internal data slicer. The data is a squared version of the signal on pin 6 (AF) and
is true data, i.e. as fed to the transmitter. Output is “open-collector” format with internal 10k pull-up to
Vcc (pin 5).
