1. Introduction
The Flamingo
ality of Atmel’s UHF FSK/ASK remote control transmitters and receivers combined
with AVR
The RF Design Kit consists of the Flamingo interface board ATAB-STK
receiver (receiver design board), an RF transmitter (transmitter design board), and
various other components as listed in
face board has to be mounted on the AVR Starter Kit STK500 (has to be ordered
separately), and forms the hardware connection between Atmel’s remote control
boards, ATABxx, and AVR Flash microcontrollers.
To build up an RF communication link, the configuration of the RF receiver and trans-
mitter is programmable via the PC with the RF Design Kit software.
The Flamingo gives designers a quick start to developing RF-based solutions, allow-
ing them to focus on developing software code rather than worrying about RF-related
issues such as RF board layout and RF fine tuning. Combined with features for rapid
prototyping and testing, which come along with the STK500, the design cycle for new
designs can be dramatically reduced.
This document helps to quickly cope with mounting and configuring the hardware to
use the Flamingo with the remote control boards ATABxx
