About LinxFrom all of us here at Linx Technologies, thank you for your interest inlearning more about our rapidly growing company. The following sectionwill provide a brief insight into our history, vision and future.

Our HistoryFounded in 1994, Linx Technologies is a privately held growth-modecorporation consisting of three divisions. The first and primary division,Linx Technologies, shares the corporate name and specializes in low-costwireless modules and OEM RF product solutions. The second division,Antenna Factor, specializes in cost-effective standard and customantennas for consumer and industrial wireless products. Finally, a thirddivision, Connector City, provides world-class standard and customconnectors and cable assemblies for high-volume OEM applications.

Our VisionRadio Frequency (RF) is a complex science requiring a unique grasp ofboth advanced technical issues and complex legal requirements; thus,adding wireless capabilities to a product has traditionally been a costlyand time-consuming proposition. This has limited the widespread use ofRF and prevented many potentially useful products from reachingproduction.

Here at Linx, we believe that every engineer, regardless of training andexperience, should have the option of using RF technology. That’s why“Wireless Made Simple” is more than just a motto.... It’s our commitment.A commitment to offering the highest quality RF products designed toprovide a simple and cost-effective path to making any product wireless.

Through its three divisions, Linx Technologies, Inc., is positioned to takeadvantage of the exploding wireless market it helped to create. We believethat our vision for enabling engineers of all skill levels in diverseindustries to harness the power of RF will allow Linx continuedrecognition as a leader in RF solutions.

Wireless Made Simple!

Linx RF modules make it easy and cost-effective to add wireless

capabilities to your product. That’s because Linx modules contain

all the components necessary for the transmission of RF. Since no

external components (except an antenna) are needed, the modules

are easily applied, even by persons lacking previous RF design

experience. This conserves valuable engineering resources and

greatly reduces the product's time to market. Once in production, the

savings continue because Linx RF modules improve production

yields, reduce placement costs, and require no production testing or

adjustment.

Your Fast Track To Wireless Success

Evaluation / Development Systems put you on the fast track to wireless success.Each kit contains everything necessary to evaluate the Linx module family of yourchoice and then integrate it into your product in record time. Clear documentationwill guide you through the legal and technical issues of application while pre-populated evaluation boards allow immediate module operation under actual fieldconditions. Finally, when you have integrated the modules into your own product,the kit will continue to serve as a valuable benchmark to compare theperformance of your own layout and design. In addition, you’ll receive unlimitedno-charge technical support throughout the entire design process.

*IMPORTANT NOTE*Linx requires the purchase of an evaluation kit of a module Series (LC, LR, KH,RM, ES, HP, SC) prior to selling individual modules of that Series to a user.There are many reasons for this policy, but the most important is that we wantyou to have all the tools necessary to correctly and legally bring wireless functionto your product. Evaluation kits serve as a point of reference among all of ourcustomers and allow us to more effectively assist in explaining layout conceptsor in troubleshooting application difficulties.

ANTENNAS

HE Series antennas are designed for direct PCB mounting. Thanks to theHE’s compact size they are ideal for internal concealment inside a product'shousing. The HE is also very low in cost, making it well-suited to high-volumeapplication. HE Series antennas have a very narrow bandwidth(approximately 10MHz of the specified center frequency); thus, care inplacement and layout is required. In addition, they are not as efficient as whip-style antennas, so they are generally better suited to use on the transmitterend where attenuation is often required anyway. Use on both transmitter andreceiver ends is recommended only in instances where a short range (>30%of whip style) is acceptable.

An engineer will generally choose most components based on technical issuesof function and application. RF products are unusual in that they involve not onlysuch technical issues but issues of legality as well. Many manufacturers haveavoided incorporating RF into their products as a result of uncertainty and evenfear of such matters.

In order to address these concerns and simplify each customer’s design cycle,Linx has attempted to identify any step in the RF implementation process thatmay cause delay or frustration. We have then tailored a service to simplify thatstep. While such services are unusual for a high-volume componentmanufacturer, they are all a part of the Linx commitment to “Making WirelessSimple”.

your first stop. Our website isorganized in an intuitive format togive you the answers you need inrecord time. Day or night, the Linxwebsite gives you instant accessto the latest information regardingthe products and services of Linx.It's all here: manual and softwareupdates, application notes, FCCinformation and much more. Besure to visit soon!

IMPLEMENTATION ASSISTANCEWhile Linx does not undertake OEM designprojects in most instances, our engineers havebroad experience in almost every area of designand manufacturing. Linx is pleased to offer ourcustomers the benefit of that experience as itpertains to the integration of Linx RF productsinto a product design.

EDUCATIONAt Linx we believe that our best customer is aninformed customer. That is why our comprehensivemanuals are supported by a growing library ofinformative application notes. Linx application notesare designed to provide guidance on the effectiveapplication of its products across a broad range ofapplications. Many different topics are discussed ina fashion inappropriate for the device data sheet,from matters to consider before embarking on a design to complete overviews oflegal and technical issues affecting wireless products. Backed by the assistanceof experienced support personnel, each customer has an opportunity to learnabout our products and the basic principles of RF whereby they work. Applicationnotes may be downloaded from www.linxtechnologies.com or obtained bycontacting the Linx literature department.

ANTENNA DESIGN ASSISTANCELinx offers a complete variety of standard antenna stylesthat will meet the needs of most users’ applications.Occasionally a design will call for a custom antenna tomeet physical or cosmetic constraints. Since the designof application-specific antennas calls for experience andequipment outside the scope of many of our customers,Linx offers antenna design services. These servicesrange from assistance evaluation of a customer’santenna configuration to actual antenna design. One ofour most popular design specialties is small printedantennas that are often incorporated directly on a PCBto reduce cost and eliminate a visible antenna.

FCC PRESCREEN SERVICESThe most difficult obstacle to overcomewhen bringing an RF-based product tomarket, aside from the design itself, isthe approval process. To ensure acustomer the best opportunity to passFCC testing, Linx offers unique low-costpre-compliance testing services. Usingour state-of-the-art Hewlett PackardEMC-compliancy test system, a productis screened just as it will be duringactual FCC testing. In addition to thisscreen, the actual design is evaluatedby a Linx engineer to ensure that it isboth legal and technically optimized. A prescreen report is then generatedsummarizing our findings and recommendations. This report, along withadditional documentation, will ease your preparations for final approval testing.

OEM MODIFICATIONSAs a rule Linx does not undertake the design ormanufacture of customer-specific products; however, manyproducts can be modified for high-volume applications. OurOEM product lines are especially suited to suchmodifications. Company logos, custom colors andnomenclature are all ways that Linx products can beadapted to meet the needs of an individual customer.Custom antennas, cables, and connectors can also beprovided through Linx’s Antenna Factor and Connector Citydivisions.
