Chips for a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum transmitter ? - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Looking for parts to implement a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum transmitter. Ideally a single-chip solution would be nice. Not sure about frequency or chip rates etc yet. Just looking for some parts to start with.

2.4 GHz CyFi™ Transceiver

Features

2.4 GHz Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) Radio Transceiver
Operates in the unlicensed worldwide Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band (2.400 GHz to 2.483 GHz)
21 mA Operating Current (Transmit at -5 dBm)
Transmit Power Up to 4 dBm
Receive Sensitivity up to -97 dBm
Sleep Current less than 1 µA
DSSS Data Rates up to 250 kbps, GFSK Data Rate of 1 Mbps
