TX6000

916.50 MHz

Hybrid

Transmitter

The TX6000 hybrid transmitter is ideal for short-range wireless data applications

where robust operation, small size, low power consumption and low cost are required.

All critical RF functions are contained in the hybrid, simplifying and speeding design-

in. The TX6000 includes provisions for both on-off keyed (OOK) and amplitude-shift

keyed (ASK) modulation. The TX6000 employs SAW filtering to suppress output har-

monics, facilitating compliance with FCC 15.249 and similar regulations.
