Quick Start RF Transceiver Evaluation Kit

1.

Introduction

The RF Transceiver Evaluation Kit exists to provide familiarity with the functionality of
Atmel

®

’s UHF ASK/FSK transceivers. For this purpose, software is included which

enables the user to configure the registers easily and conveniently.

Kit Contents

The transceiver kit consists of a transceiver base station board, an SPI2LPT interface
board, a DC supply cable, a parallel port cable, and a CD-ROM with the appropriate
software, as depicted in 

Figure 2-1

. The transceiver board and the SPI2LPT interface

board have to be ordered separately.
