Radio Transmitter ICs

About Radio Transmitter ICs

Radio transmitter ICs are electronic devices that propagate radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic signals. They are used in high-end remote keyless entry systems, automatic meter reading devices, building automation and industrial controls, and consumer radios. Radio transmitter ICs are also used in other consumer electronics such as MP3 players, telecommunications systems, wireless devices, and for broadcasting TV signals and data. These tiny devices have an integrated circuit (IC) form factor, but are functionally similar to traditional radio transmitters. With radio transmitter ICs, the generated signals are sent to the media through a tiny antenna. Typically, this antenna is internal to the device, and is known as a chip antenna or embedded antenna.
