- Packet engine to perform CRC, FEC, whitening, and address filtering

Core Frequency Range
The chip supports a continuous range from 150 MHz to 960 MHz.
While the silicon itself can tune to any frequency in this range, actual hardware modules (like those from Electrodragon.com) are typically optimized for specific regional bands using specialized RF matching circuits.

Summary:
- The SX1262 generally offers better performance in terms of power consumption, sensitivity, and size, and supports a wider frequency range and IEEE 802.15.4g. It's a newer generation chip.
- The SX1278 is an older, more established chip that is still suitable for many LoRa applications, particularly where cost is a primary concern and the advanced features of the SX1262 are not required.
