Description of the product
The SATELLINE-M3-R3 is a UHF radio receiver module, which receives data from UHF
transmissions made by SATELLINE-3AS family and similar transmitters.
The module is designed to be as compact and power efficient as possible. It has been
developed especially suitable for integration into battery powered and space constrained host
applications benefiting from UHF communications.
The module receives data from the Air interface (Ant. Connector, RF), demodulates and decodes
the data and sends the data payload to the DTE port.
The DTE interface is used to provide power to the module and communicate with the module.
