HT Keyfob Transmitter
Basic Remote Control with Cut-Trace Addressing
The keyfob is recommended for legacy products already based on Holtek® chips. It is not recommended for new designs
The HT Keyfob transmitter is ideal for general-purpose remote control and command applications requiring a small form factor transmitter. The small transmitter has a line of sight range of up to 750 feet (230m). It is available in 418 (standard) and 433.92MHz. It has been pre-certified for FCC Part 15, Industry Canada, and European CE (433MHz only) compliance, reducing costs and time to market.
Addressing is based on 10 address lines that are set with cut traces, which offers 1,022 unique addresses. The address lines should be set the same on the receiver to enable communication. If the addresses are not the same, then the decoder ignores the transmission.
The protocol is based on the Holtek® HT640 encoder and is completely backwards compatible with older generation transmitters and systems based on the HT658 decoder. The transmission can be decoded using a KH3 series receiver / decoder, or an LR Series receiver or LT Series transceiver paired with a DS Series decoder or custom microcontroller. The transmitter can be configured with 1 to 5 buttons and the keypad and labeling can be customized with an NRE and minimum order. It uses a single 3V CR2032 lithium button cell.
