Introduction  
This user guide is for the nRD24V1 headset reference design, a voice quality wireless headset for Voice  
over IP (VoIP) applications. The quality of the audio in this design is the same as the audio quality in tele-  
phony.  
This user guide describes the nRD24V1 system, HW modules and gives guidelines on how to take this ref-  
erence design and build it into a headset application for a finished product.  
The nRD24V1 consists of a USB dongle and two application boards with a radio module mounted. You can  
establish a full duplex voice link between one application board and the USB dongle or between the two  
application boards.  
Target applications for the nRD24V1 are:  
Voice over IP headsets  
Short range intercom applications  
Toys
