EZRadio-DK Range Test Demo EZRADIO Si4455 TWO-WAY AND Si4012/Si4355 ONE-WAY LINK DEVELOPMENT KIT USERS GUIDE 1. Overview Thank you for your interest in Silicon Labs EZRadio product family. The Silicon Labs EZRadio Si4455 Two-Way Link and Si4012/Si4355 EZRadio One-Way Link Development Kit (P/N EZR-LCDK2W-XXX and P/N 4012- LCDK1W-XXX) contains everything you need to familiarize yourself with and evaluate the Silicon Labs EZRadio family. The two-way kit has three versions: one for the 434 MHz band, one for the 868 MHz band, and one for the 915 MHz band. The one-way kit has two versions: one for the 434 MHz band, and one for the 915 MHz band. The key features of the development kit are as follows: The baseboards have an LCD display and four LEDs to display information and four push-buttons to receive user commands. Additionally, the Silicon Labs Toolstick Base Adapter is integrated on the board to be easily connected to the PC. The RF pico board provides connection to the radio device (either Si4455 transceiver, Si4355 receiver, or Si4012 transmitter). All supported types of RF pico boards can be applied to the baseboard. The provided software pack contains all the documentation and files needed to develop a user application. The kit supports the use of the Silicon Laboratories Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for software debugging and the use of the Keil & SDCC C compiler, assembler, and linker toolchain. The kit supports use of the Wireless Development Suite (WDS) for setting radio parameters and managing application firmware. The baseboards come with the EZRadio range test demo application. The range test demo implements Packet Error Rate (PER) measurement. PER is generally used in wireless systems to measure the quality of the RF link in given circumstances.
