The C-12 board is a wireless communication module operating at 433MHz with a range of up to 1000 meters. It uses the RF chip SI4463 and features a built-in microcontroller, which can be configured via AT commands.
Its main features include:
- Maximum output power: 100mW (20dBm)
- Sensitivity: from -117dBm to -100dBm, depending on transmission speed
- Operating voltage: 3.2V-5.5V, compatible with 3.3V and 5V UART devices
It operates in multiple modes:
- FU1: moderate power consumption
- FU2: extreme power consumption
- FU3: default general use
- FU4: long-distance mode
Configuration can be done via AT commands, and the best method is to use a USB to serial converter, such as the CP2102.
Technical specifications:
- Operating frequency: 433.4MHz to 473.0MHz
- Communication distance: 1,000m in open space
- Serial port speed: 1.2Kbps to 115.2Kbps (default 9.6Kbps)
- Receiver sensitivity: -117dBm to -100dBm
- Interface protocol: UART/TTL
- Operating temperature: -40℃ to +85℃
- Dimensions: 27.8mm x 14.4mm x 4mm
