DESCRIPTION
The CRMX-100 RF module is a 2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4 transceiver designed for proprietary, Zigbee
or RF4CE application. The module is based on Texas Instruments CC2530 that combines the excellent
performance of a RF transceiver with industry–standard enhanced 8051 microcontroller unit, 128 KB
in-system programmable flash memory, 8-KB RAM, and many other features. The RF module
incorporates Texas Instrument CC2590 RF Front End power amplifier (PA) and low-noise amplifier
(LNA) for increased output power, and improved receiver sensitivity respectively. The module has an
option to either be populated with a chip antenna or reverse-polarity SMA connector to be used with an
external antenna. The RF module has various operating modes, making it highly suited for systems
where ultralow power consumption is required.
