Radiocrafts Releases a Wireless Technology Selection Guide!

Do you want to implement a Radiocrafts RF module into your product design but are unsure about which wireless technology fits your application and performance requirements? Then review Radiocrafts’ new application note, AN045: Wireless Connectivity Technologies Selection Guide!

Selecting the right wireless technology for your application is a critical design decision that can often take several months. Based on radio performance requirements and other criteria, Radiocrafts has created a wireless technology selection guide that summarises the differences between the technologies to help you select the right one.
