Functional Description
The block diagram of the REB212BSMA radio extender board is shown in
. The power supply pins and
all digital I/Os of the radio transceiver are routed to the 2 × 20-pin expansion connector to interface to a power
supply and a microcontroller.
Board-specific information such as board identifier, MAC address and production calibration values are stored in
an ID EEPROM. The SPI bus of the EEPROM is shared with the radio transceiver interface.
