The device can be powered directly using 2.0-3.6 V supplied to the VIN signal listed in Table 1. In order to use the Sub 1-Ghz Narrowband Transceiver, It is important to use the module pins in your application as they are designated in the table below. To design, develop and program the device you will need to use host board to communicate RF module via spi protocol. For detailed Information regarding cc1120, please visit the Texas Instrument website and navigate to the cc1120 product page. PIN DESCRIPTION Table 1 Sub 1-Ghz Narrowband Transceiver Pinout:

(2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le prsent appareil est conforme aux CNR dIndustrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. Lexploitation est autorise aux deux conditions suivantes :
1) lappareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage;
2) lutilisateur de lappareil doit accepter tout brouillage radiolectrique subi, mme si le brouillage est susceptible den compromettre le fonctionnement. FCC ID: 2AFYY-NRWRANGEX This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. 5155 Spectrum way, Unit 17, Missisauga, ON L4W5A1 CANADA Tel: 905 282 1750 Fax: 905 282 9691 www.embeddedsense.com 6 of 7 Sub 1-Ghz Narrowband Transceiver User Guide Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. Changes or modifications made to this equipment not expressly approved by Embedded Sense Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
