INTRODUCTION
MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail PLUS DAUGHTER BOARD CONTENTS
MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail PLUS DAUGHTER BOARD
The MRF89XAMxA PICtail™/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is a demonstration and
development daughter board for the following modules:
• MRF89XAM8A Ultra Low-Power Sub-GHz Transceiver Module - 868 MHz
• MRF89XAM9A Ultra Low-Power Sub-GHz Transceiver Module - 915 MHz
The daughter board can be plugged into multiple Microchip Technology demonstration
and development boards. For example, the daughter board is appropriate for 8-bit
microcontroller development using the PIC18 Explorer Board (DM183032) or for 16-bit
or 32-bit microcontroller development using the Explorer 16 Development Board
(DM240001).
Supporting software stacks and application notes can be downloaded from the

• MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board
Depending on the development tool ordered, package will contain one of the following
development boards listed in Table 1-1.
TABLE 1-1:
The MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board is a complete Ultra Low-Power
Sub-GHz wireless transceiver. The features are shown in Figure 1-1.
MRF89XAM8A PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board – 868 MHz
MRF89XAM9A PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board – 915 MHz
Power to the MRF89XAMxA PICtail/PICtail Plus Daughter Board should be in the
range of 2.1–3.6V. Ensure that the development/demonstration board that the
daughter board is plugged into meets this voltage requirement; otherwise, damage
to the MRF89XA might occur.
