The TX91501 Powercaster Transmitter uses the 915MHz ISM band to transmit common radio waves for power and data in commercial, industrial and defense applications.Ā
As the power source for the vendor's RF energy-harvesting wireless power
solution, the TX91501 broadcasts power and data over 40 feet to its
companion Powerharvester receivers. Embedded into micro-power devices
such as wireless sensors, instrumentation and controls, the
Powerharvester receivers convert the received RF energy into DC power
for battery-free operation or to wirelessly trickle-charge batteries.
The receivers also output the data broadcast from the TX91501 as well as
the received signal strength indication (RSSI). The TX91501 transmitter
is approved by the FCC (Part 15) and Industry Canada. Broadcasted RF
energy creates a perpetual power source, unlike potentially unreliable
solar, heat or vibration energy sources, says the vendor.Powercast Corp.www.powercastco.com800.963.6538
