SX1261IMLTRT Electrical Characteristics

The electrical specifications are given with the following conditions unless otherwise specified:

  • VBAT_IO = VBAT = 3.3 V, all current consumptions are given for VBAT connected to VBAT_IO
  • Temperature = 25 °C
  • FXOSC = 32 MHz, with specified crystal
  • FRF = 434/490/868/915 MHz
  • All RF impedances matched
  • Transmit mode output power defined into a 50 load impedance
  • FSK BER = 0.1%, 2-level FSK modulation without pre-filtering, BR = 4.8 kb/s, FDA = ± 5 kHz, BW_F = 20 kHz double-sided
  • LoRa® PER = 1%, packet 64 bytes, preamble 8 symbols, CR = 4/5, CRC on payload enabled, explicit header mode
  • RX/TX specifications given using default RX gain step and direct tie connection between Rx and Tx
  • Blocking immunity, ACR and co-channel rejection are given for a single tone (CW) interferer and referenced to sensitivity +3 dB
  • Optional TCXO and RF Switch power consumption always excluded

Throughout this document, all receiver bandwidths are expressed as 'double-sideband'. This is valid for LoRa® and FSK modulations.
