General Description
The TH7120 is a single chip FSK/FM/ASK transceiver IC. It is designed to operate in low-power multi-channel programmable or single-channel stand-alone, half-duplex data transmission systems. It can be used for ISM, SRD or any other application operating in the frequency ranging of 300 MHz to 930 MHz.
FEATUREs
❐ Single chip solution with only a few external components
