GENERAL DESCRIPTION
With Semtech’s patented modulation technique the device
can achieve sensitivity of over -140 dBm using a low cost
crystal and bill of materials. The high sensitivity combined
with the integrated +20 dBm power amplifier creates the
highest link budget making it optimal for any application
requiring range. This modulation technique also provides
significant advantages in blocking and selectivity over FSK.
The devices also support high performance (G)FSK for
WMBus, FCC Part 90, 15.4g, and other legacy modes.
Semtech’s technology overcomes a typical trade-off of
performance versus current consumption. The devices
deliver exceptional phase noise, selectivity, receiver
linearity, and IIP3 for significantly lower current consumption
than competing devices.
The devices cover the major ISM bands from 137 MHz to
1050 MHz. For ease of matching, low BOM cost, and higher
performance the SX1276/77/78 family offers separate high
band and low band support for applications wanting to cover
dual bands for world-wide operation, dual band support, or
security against future band allocation changes.
