CR41

The Radio Card product CR41 provides all the hardware required to implement wireless communication using Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) technology. Only an external Media Access Controller is required.

DSSS technology CR41 provides interference rejection in the presence of narrow band noise. Since the output power is spread across such a large bandwidth, the DSSS signal is low level and wide bandwidth and therefore not intrusive to other equipment. Evaluation kits include two MACless cards in a PCMCIA Type II form factor and users guide AN9808. The PRISM1RCEVAL MACless radio kit does not include any software.

THE PCMCIA BUS INTERFACE HAS NOT BEEN IMPLEMENTED IN THIS CARD, THEREFORE A PROPER INTERFACE IS REQUIRED, (SEE SIGNAL DESCRIPTION).

CR41 has been designed to allow evaluation of the Intersil PRISM Direct Sequence chip set. The PRISM1RC-EVAL is not FCC approved as an intentional radiator and is intended for use with cabled connections only (30dB attenuation recommended antenna port to antenna port).

An FCC experimental license CR41 is required while transmitting over the air with unapproved equipment. ™
