chip2400 SCT2400: 2.4GHz Digital Voice and Data Transceiver

Overview
SCT2400 is a highly integrated RF transceiver and baseband chip for low-power, long range voice communications. The SCT2400 features a 2.4GHz band radio transceiver, supporting ultra-long-distance communication and strong anti-interference capabilities. The SCT2400 also integrates a voice and data transmission baseband core to handle the entire baseband processing. Interfacing to an external audio codec (ADC and DAC), it provides a complete physical and data link layer solution complying with Sicomm’s Digital Family Radio (DFR) digital voice protocol, and most of the call control layer features. The DFR digital voice protocol is a proprietary digital voice protocol developed by Sicomm for the 2.4GHz band.
