Longshot is an open hardware and firmware project for designing and building a custom RF communication module.
This repository contains:
- EDA design files for the schematic and PCB layout
- Firmware sources for bring-up and control of the radio system
- Supporting documentation and licenses for development and release
Current version sends/recieves at 868MHz, but this can be changed in firmware, and by changing matching and lowpass filters in the schematic.
Why did i feel the need to create such a module from scratch? Because i simply wasnt satisfied by the speed & range that other modules like LoRa had, so i created my own.
| Function | IC / Module |
|---|---|
| Transceiver IC | SI4463 |
| PA / LNA | SKY66423-11 |
Note: I tried to use copilot AI to generate this repo structure as i have not tried that before. Safe to say i wont be attempting that in any future repo's.
