RF65x9 Smart Energy Transmit/Receive Front End Modules for AMI/AMR and Smart Grid solutions

The RF65x9 series of Transmit/Receive Modules integrate a complete solution in a single Front-End Module for AMI/AMR and Smart Grid solutions. The FEMs integrate a PA, transmit filtering, input and output switches, a Tx or receive attenuation path, and an LNA with bypass mode.

Single-ended input and output are included for optimized ease of use and implementation. The pin-out of the FEM enables users to implement additional filtering external to the module, if needed.
