The RFM96W is a high-performance LoRa RF transceiver module based on the Semtech SX1276 chip, operating in the 868 MHz ISM band. Engineered for long-range, low-power wireless communication, this module enables reliable transmission across distances up to 15 km (line of sight), making it ideal for IoT, remote monitoring, agricultural automation, smart cities, and industrial telemetry applications.
This module leverages LoRa (Long Range) spread spectrum technology, offering superior sensitivity up to -148 dBm and excellent interference immunity, allowing it to outperform traditional FSK and OOK RF solutions in complex environments. It supports both LoRa and FSK modulation, enabling flexible deployment depending on power and range needs.
With a compact SMD form factor, the RFM96W is designed for easy integration into MCU-based systems (Arduino, STM32, ESP32, Raspberry Pi, etc.), and communicates via a SPI interface, offering full control over transmission parameters such as frequency, bandwidth, spreading factor, and coding rate.
