Hi,

Can we use same RF Receiver and LF Transmitter for both NTM88 and NCF29A?

My main controller board needs to communicate with both the NTM88 and NCF29A modules, which operate at identical RF and LF frequencies. Is it feasible to use a single RF receiver and a single LF transmitter on the main board to interface with both devices?

Hello chinnanc

Based on the diagram you shared with me, it seems feasible to use a single RF receiver and a single LF transmitter on the main board to communicate with both NTM88 and NCF29A modules, as long as both operate on the same RF and LF frequencies.

1.- Ensure the design has adequate isolation to prevent interference between modules.

2.- If modules respond simultaneously, consider implementing an access control protocol.

 

I hope this information has helped you, please let me know if you need help with anything else.

Have a great day and best of luck.

Hello chinnanc

Good day!

Yes, In the features section of NTM88 you can find the following:

-  Internal 315/434 MHz RF transmitter

-  Internal 125 kHz LF receiver

We only have application notes of NTM88 working as LF receiver on our official website.

I am afraid NCF29AG-H is only able to receive data via LT and not via RF TX.

 

I hope this information has helped you, please let me know if you need help with anything else.

Have a great day and best of luck.
