eRIC4-DUINO, LPRS, easyRadio eRIC4

eRIC4 & eRIC9 easyRadio Arduino Shields

Two eRIC Arduino Shields which allow wireless communication between Arduino™ boards using proprietary LPRS easyRadio technology. This technology provides considerably greater range and lower power consumption than similar Wi-Fi or Bluetooth devices operating in the overcrowded 2.4GHz bands. An on-board 4-pin header allows connection of an external FT232 USB adapter device to configure the easyRadio module if required.
Two versions of the eRIC Arduino Shield are available:
136-7693 · eRIC4-DUINO for operation at 434MHz
136-7694 · eRIC9-DUINO for operation at 868/915MHz

• Host Arduino™ boards can send and receive (half duplex) up to 180 Bytes of data per packet
• Seamless delivery and presentation to all other hosts within range
• Typical operating range up to 200m
• Transmit, Receive, Busy and Power LED indicators
• Integral SMA antenna connector
