Demonstration Board
The Demonstration Kit includes two Demonstration Boards. The Demonstration Boards
contain the RC230x module and associated support circuits. The board provides an a serial
port driver circuit for RS232 and the 9-pin D-Sub connector, DEBUG interface for
programming and debugging, access to all digital and analogue I/O, push-buttons, LEDs, a
potentiometer, a light sensor and an accelerometer as well as a voltage regulator.
Configuration jumpers and connectors make it easy to interface the RC230x with various test
equipment or the host used in an application. Not all components are needed in an actual
application. Please see the datasheet for a typical application circuit.

The SMA connector layout pattern is not used on this board (and is not connected to the
module antenna output) as the module contains a chip antenna.
Typical range measured between two boards in line-of-sight is 110 meters when the chip
antennas are oriented vertically (or parallel). Indoors a range of 10-30 can be expected,
depending on the materials in walls and floors.
