About this manual

The CYRF6936 WirelessUSB™ LP radio is a second‑generation 2.4 GHz ISM‑band transceiver designed for wireless keyboards, mice, gamepads, remote controls and other battery‑powered devices. It offers features such as low operating current (21 mA Tx @ –5 dBm), sleep current <1 µA, auto‑transaction sequencing, and dynamic data‑rate selection (up to 1 Mbps GFSK).\n\nThe device is supplied in a 40‑lead 6 × 6 mm QFN package and provides a 4 MHz SPI interface, separate 16‑byte TX/RX FIFOs, and a power‑management unit that supports 1.8‑3.6 V operation. Pin descriptions, register maps, and example circuits are included for easy integration into MCU‑based designs.
