1. General Description

The S76S integrates ARM Coretex®-M0+ (32-bit RISC core operating at a 32MHz frequency) MCU with LoRaTM

modulation that provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity

whilst minimizing current consumption.

S76S can achieve a sensitivity of over -137 dBm. The high sensitivity combined with the integrated +20 dBm

power amplifier yields industry leading link budget making it optimal for any low data rate application requiring

range or robustness. LoRaTM also provides significant advantages in both blocking and selectivity over

conventional modulation techniques, solving the traditional design compromise between range, interference

immunity and energy consumption.

Feature

 Small footprint：13 mm x 11 mm x 1.1 mm

 LoRa  +20 dBm constant RF output vs. V supply

 Programmable bit rate up to 37500 bps  High sensitivity: down to -137 dBm  Excellent blocking immunity

TM

Modem

 Preamble detection  Automatic RF Sense and CAD with ultra-fast AFC  Payload up to 128 bytes with CRC  Embedded memories (up to 192 Kbytes of

Flash memory and 20 Kbytes of RAM)
