By enabling short-range transmissions in frequency ranges below 1 GHz, SPIRIT1 ensures proper wireless signal propagation through concrete walls and building structures.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;">SPIRIT1 boasts an outstanding receiver sensitivity of -120dBm. It delivers an unparalleled competitive advantage of extremely low current consumption, slashed by as much as 50% over existing solutions in the market. It is packaged in a very small QFN20 4*4 mm package.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span><a href="https://community.element14.com/resized-image/__size/620x433/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-12/contentimage_5F00_28035.jpg"><img alt="image" src="https://community-storage.element14.com/communityserver-components-secureimagefileviewer/communityserver/wikis/components/files/00/00/00/01/12/contentimage_28035.jpg-620x433.jpg?sv=2016-05-31&amp;sr=b&amp;sig=iVoAkisnDhl0ey5YAxLZr2O2j7ZX7KEievzr4FD%2FRf4%3D&amp;se=2026-09-16T23%3A59%3A59Z&amp;sp=r&amp;_=pnTiyyI9P5+YbJCu2I/uGg==" style="max-height: 433px;max-width: 620px;" /></a></span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong>Applications</strong></p><ul><li>Smart Metering</li><li>Home/Building Automation</li><li>Wireless Sensor Network</li><li>Industrial Monitoring &amp; Control</li><li>Alarm Systems</li></ul><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><strong>Features</strong></p><ul><li>Power:&nbsp; -36 dBm to +11 dBm, in 0.5 dB steps</li><li>Excellent receiver sensitivity:&nbsp; -&nbsp; 120 dBm&nbsp; (1.2 kbps – 169MHz)</li><li>Adjacent channel selectivity : 55 dB at 12.5 kHz channel spacing (1% PER – 20 bytes packet length)</li><li>Integrated SMPS allows very&nbsp; low power consumption</li><li>Frequency bands: 169, 315, 433, 868, 915, 920 MHz</li><li>Configurable data rate from 1 to 500 kbps</li><li>SPI interface</li><li>Supply voltage: 1.8 V to 3.6V</li><li>Modulation schemes: 2-FSK, GFSK, MSK, GMSK, OOK, and ASK</li><li>Suitable for Systems targeting compliance</li><li>Wireless MBUS standard</li><li>ETSI EN 300 220, FCC CFR47 Part 15, ARIB STD-67</li></ul><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: communications, smarthouse, applications, monitoring, control, network, metering, radio, smart, stmicroelectronics, wireless, rf, concentrators, alarm, data, home, SPIRIT1, automation, sensor, frequency</div>
