Product overview
The A8520E24A91 is a high-performance, FCC & IC
certified and ETSI compliant audio module based on
the Texas Instruments CC8520 transceiver and
CC2591 range extender in the industry’s smallest
package (11 x 19 x 2.5 mm).
The module incorporates the required RF matching &
filtering, crystal, integral antenna, and digital line
filtering for good noise reduction and sensitivity. The
result is quick low power wireless connectivity without
having to deal with extensive protocol, RF, antenna
design and regulatory compliance; thereby providing
quick time to market. The modules are 100% tested in
production to ensure consistent performance.
The A8520E24A91 has an RoHS-compliant ENIG
finish and is packaged on tape & reel or in matrix tray
for high-volume automated manufacturing.
