Current consumption during receiving is a strong point in choice of radio transceivers.
I work with RFM22 so far, but around 18 mA during reception is pretty high.
I would like to switch over to the Axsem AX5043 (transceiver only) or better to Axsem AX8052F143 (transceiver + 8052
compatible mikrocontroller which should work with BASCAM 8051).
Depending on the frequency the AX8052F143 draws between 6.5mA and 9.5mA during reception.
I have a couple of homemade PCBs with the AX8052F143 which are running with the C code from Axsem very well
(much longer range than RFM22), but I would prefer to switch over to BASCOM. Maybe someone is interested to work together on such a project.
Best regards
Chris
