Product Description

RFD21815 Wireless Inventors Shield for Arduino

RF Digital RFD21815 Open Source Wireless Inventors Shield for Arduino allows a wireless connection between two Arduino boards to be set up quickly and reliably with a distance of 500ft. The inventors shield uses a wireless pipe, which is a special wireless RF module that allows the user to easily and reliably send and receive error-free wireless data between two or more Arduino boards. RFD21815 is ready to use out of the box, and does not require any complicated channel selection, setup, or initialization. The shield has a long range for distances up to 500ft, and also offers built-in forward error correction and data recovery. It is immune to noise so that data inside the wireless pipe is protected from the elements outside such as interferences like WiFi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, cordless phones, cellular phones, all types of servo and motor noise, etc. All things which typically stop a wireless project in its tracks are no longer an issue with the RFD21815 Wireless Inventors Shield.

 

Specifications
  • Band: 2.4GHz
  • Typical supply voltage:
    3.3V from Arduino
  • Transmit current: 14mA,
    2uA ULP + Controller
  • Receive current: 17mA,
    2uA ULP + Controller
  • Outdoor range:
    500ft (150m)

Board Setup (see image below)
  • Reset button: Tied to the Arduino and will reset at Arduino system
  • Switch 1: Enables level translators for serial connection between Wireless shield and Arduino; useful for disconnection from Arduino
  • Switch 2: Sets RF Mode of RFD21733 - in Mode 2, shield will receive data from any RFD21733 equipped shield as well as RFD USB dongle, keyfobs, etc; in Mode 3, shield will only receive data from RFD21733 equipped products which have been "learned"
  • Learn button: Used only in Mode 3, for listening to particular RFD21733 modules
  • HW/SW switch: Allows connection of shield to either hardware serial pins of Arduino D0 and D1 or software serial pins (in this case D10 and D11)
  • RF DIN and RF DOUT LED indicators are tied to RX and TX lines and will blink when data is sent or received
