AeroComm presents the ZB2430 "ZigBee Your Way" Transceiver. Based on Texas Instruments 802.15.4 System-on-Chip and Z-Stack technology. Two output-power versions of the module suit varying needs: ZB2430 for battery-powered communication, and ZB2430-100 (100mW) for extended communication range.
With Texas Instruments' embedded Z-Stack firmware, ZB2430 is aimed squarely at secure, low-power, mesh network applications. Modules are offered as either Coordinators & Routers (Full Function Devices) or End-Devices (Reduced Function Devices). Network scan, auto-configuration, dynamic routing, discovery, and security enable the mesh network, delivering reliable redundancy, secure multi-communication nodes and long range performance. Additionally, the standard 128 KB of embedded flash memory provides room for larger, more complex application profiles.
Comprehensive ZB2430 Developer Kits will be available from AeroComm and Mouser Electronics in June 2006. Each Kit will include evaluation boards with multiple configuration options selectable by OEM's to determine the feature set that is best suited for their application.
