Some Ideas of mine that were put in delabs Tweeter, related to EDA and Product Design Product Design Optimization Make Practical (it works), Affordable, Usable (ergonomics), Safe, Reliable (robust), Durable/Consistent & Maintainable (Servicing) Products. Dust and Contamination in Connectors Once i opened a RF Millivolt Meter of Marconi Instruments. It did not have a spec of dust inside, not even one micron size of dust particle. Connectors exposed to Environment should not only be Corrosion resistant but also Dust, Grime & Insect Proof! Dummy Covers on exposed units. Air Vents, Fans & Unused Slots in Modular Instruments. Missing Fasteners in [Read More ....]
TI – CC2511F32 – 2.4 GHz SOC with USB
TI – CC2511F32 – 2.4 GHz SOC with USB 2.4 GHz Radio Transceiver, 8051 MCU, 32 kB Flash memory and full-speed USB interface. “The CC2511Fx is a true low-cost 2.4 GHz system-on-chip (SoC) designed for low power wireless applications. The CC2511Fx combines the excellent performance of the state-of-the-art RF transceiver CC2500 with an industry-standard enhanced 8051 MCU, up to 32 kB of in-system programmable flash memory and 4 kB of RAM, and many other powerful features. The small 6×6 mm package makes it very suited for applications with size limitations. USB.org – Compliance Home – CC2511Fx – TI
