CC1020 is a true single-chip UHF transceiver designed for very low power and very low voltage wireless applications. The circuit is mainly intended for the ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) and SRD (Short Range Device) frequency bands at 402, 424, 426, 429, 433, 447, 449, 469, 868, 915, and 960 MHz, but can easily be programmed for multi-channel operation at other frequencies in the 402 – 470 and 804 – 960 MHz range.

The CC1020 is especially suited for narrowband systems with channel spacing of 12.5 or 25 kHz complying with ARIB STDT67 and EN 300 220.

The CC1020 main operating parameters can be programmed via a serial bus, thus making CC1020 a very flexible and easy to use transceiver.

In a typical system CC1020 will be used together with a microcontroller and a few external passive components.
