The beginning of the new year is a time where companies often start assessing new projects and product designs.
If you are interested in implementing a Radiocrafts RF module into your product design but are unsure about which wireless technology to use, then take a look at our 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.
Radiocrafts has always prided ourselves in providing high quality products/support and a fast to market experience for our valued customers. The new application note reflects this goal, allowing our customers to quickly choose the correct technology to evaluate.
The selection guide describes the following criteria for each technology:
- Network type
- Physical layer properties
- Application examples
- Main Advantages
- Limitations
