The ISM RX 2 Click Board™ is a compact add-on board that contains a pin configurable, low current, sub-GHz EZRadio® receiver. This board features the Si4356, a standalone Sub-GHz RF receiver IC, from Silicon Labs, which provides a true plug-and-play receive option. The Si4356 features a (G)FSK/OOK demodulator, and it has a good sensitivity up to –113 dBm that allows a longer operating range, while the low current consumption of 12 mA in Active and 50 nA in Stand-by Mode provides superior battery life. This Click Board™ is suitable for remote low-speed communication, such as the remote keyless access, garage or gate doors control, industrial control, home automation, and similar applications where this kind of communication is applicable.
The ISM RX 2 Click Board™ is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click Board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.

How Does The ISM RX 2 Click Board™ Work?
The ISM RX 2 Click Board™ is based on the Si4356, an easy-to-use, size-efficient, low-current wireless receiver IC from Silicon Labs that covers the sub-GHz bands. The wide operating voltage range and low current consumption make the Si4356 an ideal solution for battery-powered applications. It has an integrated crystal oscillator and uses a single-conversion mixer to downconvert the (G)FSK, or OOK modulated receive signal to a low IF frequency. The receiver demodulates the incoming data asynchronously by oversampling the incoming transmission, and the resulting demodulated signal send to the system MCU via the UART interface.
The Si4356 has a frequency range from 315 up to 917MHz and can be configured for operation using the four selector pins (SEL0 – SEL3) where the state of each of these pins is read internally at Start-Up and used to determine which pre-loaded configuration should be used. The SEL0 and SEL1 pins are used to adjust the frequency, and they are connected in such a way that the frequency of this Click board™ is fixed to 434.15MHz, while the setting of the SEL2 and SEL3 pins can be changed by using the SMD jumpers labelled as MODE SEL used to select the desired modulation (G)FSK or OOK. Additionally, this Click board™ has a low-pass RC filter on the receiver data output pin, which filters the output and improves sensitivity.
This Click board™ communicates with MCU using the UART interface for the data transfer, while the GPIO pins on the mikroBUS™ are used for mode selection and indication. More precisely, only one UART pin from the mikroBUS™ (RX) is used for receiving the data. The Si4356 provides two operating modes: a Receive Mode and a Stand-by Mode. The operating mode can be changed by toggling the STBY signal routed to the CS pin on the mikroBUS™, while the MSTAT signal routed to the INT pin on the mikroBUS™ represents an interrupt and indicates the current operating mode of the device. It is also possible to reset the device by using RST pin routed to the RST pin on the mikroBUS™.
ISM RX 2 Click possesses the SMA antenna connector with an impedance of 50Ω and can be used for connecting the appropriate antenna that MikroE has in its offer such as Rubber Antenna 433MHz Straight, for improved range and received signal strength.
This Click board™ is designed to be operated only with a 3.3V logic voltage level. A proper logic voltage level conversion should be performed before the Click board™ is used with MCUs with different logic levels.

Software Support
We provide a library for the ISM RX 2 Click on our LibStock page and a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library provides a function for initialising device and control over GPIO pin states.

Example Description
The application is composed of three sections :
- System Initialization - Initialize GPIO pins and LOG module
- Application Initialization - Initialise the device
- Application Task - Wait for the data pin to go down and starts sampling and waiting for sync word if it's received, collect data to buffer till it receives 0 byte
