Technical Reference Information
DESCRIPTION
The CRMX-100 RF module is a 2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4 transceiver designed for proprietary, Zigbee
or RF4CE application. The module is based on Texas Instruments CC2530 that combines the excellent
performance of a RF transceiver with industry–standard enhanced 8051 microcontroller unit, 128 KB
in-system programmable flash memory, 8-KB RAM, and many other features. The RF module
incorporates Texas Instrument CC2590 RF Front End power amplifier (PA) and low-noise amplifier
(LNA) for increased output power, and improved receiver sensitivity respectively. The module has an
option to either be populated with a chip antenna or reverse-polarity SMA connector to be used with an
external antenna. The RF module has various operating modes, making it highly suited for systems
where ultralow power consumption is required.
FEATURES
• 2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4 Compliant RF Transceiver
•High Performance and Low-Power 8051 Microcontroller
• Two Serial Unart Interface
• 2.4GHz Front End Amplifier
• Supports RemoTI stack from Texas Instruments

ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS (1)
1) Stress beyond those listed under the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent damage to
device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other
conditions beyond those indicated under Recommended Operating Conditions is not implied.
Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliabil-
ity.
2) CAUTION! ESD sensitive device. Precaution should be used when handling the device in
order to prevent permanent damage.

ANTENNA
The RF module can either be populated with a chip antenna or Reverse-Polarity SMA connector for an
external whip antenna. The regulatory certification will be completed with Yageo Corporation’s 5320
ceramic chip antenna (part# CAN4311153002501K) and also with the PRO-CELL CO., LTD’s dipole
antenna (part# RA-A01) with Reverse-Polarity SMA connector.

NOTICE
You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the part responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
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/IC 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.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is con-
nected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC/IC Rules.Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1) this device may not cause interference and
