Can you set finer frequency like 921.2?

Wondering if it is possible to set different frequencies (presume that I have regulatory body permissions)

Sure. You can set 920123456 as a valid frequency. Or 920.123456E6.

Thanks, what does the E6 bit at the end mean?

Ryan-AD avatar Oct 07 '21 04:10 Ryan-AD

e6 mean 1000000 (mega)

You mean I can set any frequency like 470E6 which is used in china?

Yes, you can set 470e6. Make sure the chip support the frequency

470e6 = 470 * (10 power of 6) = 470 000 000 = 470 Mhz.

Be aware that even if you chip support the new frequency , the breakout board you are using might be specifically optimise for a specific frequency . Inductor-capacitor network are required before going to the antenna. A slight frequency adjustment might be fine , but going way out the design and TX on full power will result with alot of power loss and might event damage the chip
