RFNT_CDR

Radio Frequency Navigational Tracker

Main Objective Create a vehicle that will track a

high frequency RF/IR transmitter

The practical application is a golf caddy that will follow a golfer when requested.

Simple Memory Map, Simple Decode

Memory map is divided in half, so only 1 pin needed to decode

If memory mapped I/O is used, we can adapt logic with and gates from needed address pins
