## Si4463 EZRadioPRO Transceiver
# ISM01A - Si4463 EZRadioPRO Transceiver

The MLAB ISM01A module is a high-performance wireless transceiver designed for long-distance data transmission. The module is based on the [Si4463 chip](https://www.silabs.com/wireless/proprietary/ezradiopro-sub-ghz-ics/device.si4463?tab=specs) from Silicon Labs, which is part of the EZRadioPRO family. With its wide frequency range and output power, it is ideal for applications that require robust and reliable wireless communication.

## Parameters

![Bottom view on ISM01A](doc/img/ISM01A_bot_big.png)
- Based on the Si4463 chip
- Chip frequency range: 142 to 1050 MHz, with the ability to operate on the open 433 or 868 MHz frequencies
- Chip output power: -20 to 20 dBm
- The Si4463 chip includes a programmable block capable of controlling radio settings and supports the SPI interface
- Power supply: 5-12V with integrated 3.3V stabilizer
- Communication: UART, SPI, GPIO
- Accessible GPIO signals directly from the transceiver
- Status indication: Two LED diodes controlled from the Si chip
- Antenna connectors: MCX for RX and TX antennas. For bidirectional communication with a single antenna, it is necessary to connect the [RFSWITCH module](www.mlab.cz/module/RFSWITCH01/), which serves as an RF switch and enables MIMO 2x2 support. ISM01A is able to control RFSWITCH module trought GPIO pins

## Possible Applications

Si4463 EZRadioPRO Transceiver
The MLAB ISM01A module with the Si4463 transceiver is suitable for a wide range of applications. It can be used in areas such as:

- **Remote Control**: The module can be used for wireless control of various devices, such as drones, RC cars, or home automation.
- **Data Links**: With prepared firmware, the module can function as a [SiK data communication link](https://ardupilot.org/copter/docs/common-sik-telemetry-radio.html), which can transmit [MAVLink packets](https://mavlink.io/en/). MAVLink is a protocol designed for communication with unmanned vehicles and is supported by the most widespread autopilots Ardupilot and PX4. This is ideal for applications that require wireless data transmission.
- **Wireless Sensor Networks**: The module can be used to create wireless sensor networks in IoT applications.
