Texas Instruments CC2500 RF Transceiver Datasheet
The CC2500 is a low‑cost, single‑chip 2.4 GHz RF transceiver designed for ISM/SRD band applications such as wireless game controllers, audio, and keyboard/mouse. It integrates a configurable baseband modem, SPI‑controlled registers, and extensive hardware support for packet handling, wake‑on‑radio, and forward error correction.
The device operates from 0.3 V to 3.6 V, supports data rates up to 500 kbps, and offers selectable modulation formats (FSK, GFSK, OOK, MSK, QPSK). Its small QLP 4 × 4 mm package (20 pins) requires few external components, making it suitable for compact, battery‑powered designs.
