This design idea shows how you can design a simple wireless temperature-monitoring system with data-logging capabilities by using a local temperature sensor and an ASK transmitter and receiver pair.
The LPCXpresso845 breakout board is an ultra-low-cost development board for evaluation and prototyping using the LPC84x series MCUs.
Might not be an actual working transmitter, but it does produce a few mW of RF power at 4 MHz using only two LMC555s.
Principle of Operation (see attached simplified schematic):
At lower operating voltages, the flip-flop (TR) input of the LMC555 can be used as an inverting comparator input to control the output of the device. This requires the Threshold (TH) input to be active (high). This circuit applies a DC bias at the switching threshold of TR and superimposes a small AC feedback signal to create an oscillator. An inverted version of the same signal is applied to the second LMC555 to produce two complementary open collector outputs (the device's discharge output). The output is then connected as a standard push-pull RF amplifier. The TH input is used as the enable input to key the transmitter.

This reference design addresses this need for pre-factory calibration and provides a complete multi-channel fully automatic calibration system for pressure transmitter calibration before leaving the factory.
Digital predistortion technology has become a mainstream technology to improve the efficiency of power amplifiers and is widely used in mobile communication systems. The efficiency of the traditional 3G air interface LDMOS power amplifier is only about 15%. Using digital predistortion technology can increase the efficiency to about 45%, which can save considerable costs for a huge base station network. The high-performance digital predistortion platform provided by ADI includes a transmit link and a predistortion receive link.
