1. Introduction
This document provides information on designing Artaflex wireless modules into
products that require 2 4 GHz ISM band wireless data transmission A brief description
is provided for all the modules to aid in assisting the designer on selecting the right
model for the design For more detailed information, please refer to engineering
datasheets or contact Artaflex technical sales/support
To ensure optimal RF performance, suggested design guidelines are provided for
placement on PCB Information on mating connectors on host board, solder reflow
temperature profiles for assembly and reworking information are also provided
manufacturing are also provided
Artaflex wireless modules operate in the 2 4 GHZ ISM band The Falcon series
modules are based on Cypress Semiconductor CyFi chipset and offer seamless
compliance to the CyFi protocol The modules are low power with transmitting data
rates up to 1Mb/s and operating range from 50 meters for embedded antenna devices
to 1 kilometer for devices equipped with a power amplifier All modules are
FCC/EU/ETS/Industry Canada agency certified

EN 301 489-7 and Industry Canada RSS-210 standards
3. Module Types
There are many packaging options available
The following is a list of available modules with a brief description.
1) AWP24S has an integrated PCB print antenna It is a first generation module
2) AWS24S has a co-axial U FL connector for attaching an external antenna It is a
first generation module
3) AWP24U is a USB dongle version allowing it to plug into computers
4) AWA24S has a power amplifier for longest operating range
5) AWAC24U is a USB dongle with a power amplifier that offers longest range and
a computer interface
6) AW24MCHL-H2 has a chip antenna and header connector It is a second
generation module that offers high performance in the smallest available
package
7) AW24MCHL-HR is the same as AW24MCHL-H2 but has a right angle connector
allowing the module to be mounted perpendicular to host PCB
8) AW24MCHL-SM is a surface mount version that has the lowest profile since
there is no header connector
9) AW24MUFL has a header connector and has a U FL connector for connecting
an external antenna
