HOPERF LoRa Module RFM95W 915MHz


Notes about the part number

The chip on the board has RF96 etched on it but the module number is RFM95W. The reason for this is that the RF96 chip is the same for all the different frequency bands, but the supporting components on the module tune it to the particular band, and hence the module part number is different.

Rest assured that this module operates in the 915MHz band. The exact frequency can be specified in the code, and in Australia, that can be anywhere between 915-928 MHz.

HopeRF Datasheet Description

The  RFM96W transceivers  feature  the  LoRaTM  long range modem that provides ultra-long range spread spectrum communication and high interference immunity whilst minimising current consumption.Using Hope RF’s patented LoRaTM modulation technique RFM96W can achieve a sensitivity of over -148dBm using a low cost crystal and bill of materials. 


The high sensitivity combined with the integrated +20 dBm power amplifier yields  industry  leading  link  budget  making  it optimal for any application requiring range or robustness. LoRaTM also provides significant advantages in both blocking and selectivity over conventional modulation techniques, solving the traditional design compromise between range, interference immunity and energy consumption.
