MHz LR receiver
interfaces to virtually
any data source,
including microcontrollers and decoder chips, making them ideal for applications such as remote control, keyless entry, and periodic
data transfer. Capable of operating at distances in excess
of 3,000 feet, LR receivers deliver 5-10 times greater
range than previous solutions. They are also the lowest in
cost of any Linx receiver product.
The modules operate over a 2.7-5.2 VDC range and
feature low power consumption, wide operational temperature range, adjustable transmitter power, and a receiver
sensitivity in excess of -115 dBm. A precision, crystal-locked PLL architecture allows for transparent data trans-
40
fer at rates of up to 10 kbps. No external components are
required (except an antenna), allowing for easy design
integration — even by engineers without previous RF
experience.
LR series modules are designed for regulatory compliance and interference immunity and are available in
frequencies suitable for both domestic and export wireless applications. The modules are housed in a tiny SMD
package that is footprint compatible with the popular
Linx LC-S receiver, allowing existing customers an instant
path to improved range and lower cost.
433 MHz LR receivers are in production and priced at
approximately $6.78 in volume production quantities.

LATEST GEN/CMOS CAMERA
SUPERCIRCUITS of
Liberty Hill, TX has
released the new PC300
camera series, which incorporates the latest layered
CMOS imaging technology.
The PC300 series cameras
produce 280 lines of resolution
and a low light rating of 1 lux.
The PC300 series cameras are
available with two different lens
options, a micro lens measuring 0.5 inches in diameter
offering a 35 degree field of view and a covert pinhole
lens option. The covert pinhole lens needs only a 1/16”
inch unobstructed opening to obtain a 25 degree field of
view. The PC300 series is also flexible when it comes to
power. It can operate between 7 to 14 volts and draws less
than 10 milliamps.
The combined performance of this camera makes it
great for a variety of scientific, robotic, and security
applications. The PC300 series is being introduced at a
ground-breaking low price of $11.95, making it within
reach for many applications.
