GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The nRF24L01 is a unique wireless solution for compact, battery operated applications with stringent requirements on battery lifetime and cost. The transceiver operates in the license free worldwide 2.4GHz ISM band.

The nRF24L01 integrates a complete 2.4GHz RF transceiver, an RF synthesizer, and full baseband logic including the unique Enhanced ShockBurst" hardware link layer, advanced power management and a high-speed SPI for the host controller interface. No external loop filters, resonators or VCO varactor diodes are required, only a low cost ±60ppm 16MHz crystal, matching circuitry and the antenna.
