SiFLEX02 Development Kit
DESCRIPTION
The SiFLEX02 module is a high performance
900MHz IEEE 802.15.4 radio (AT86RF212 &
RF amplifier circuit)
and microcontroller
(ATXMEGA256A3)
in a cost effective,
pre-certified
footprint.
The module comes preloaded with the LSR
host serial interface running on top of the Atmel
802.15.4 MAC.
Full debug and programming capabilities are
included to develop custom applications. Easily
load the ZigBee stack or 802.15.4 MAC onto
the module and create your own network.
Need to get to market quickly? Not an expert in
802.15.4 or ZigBee? Need a custom antenna?
Would you like to own the design? Would you
like a custom design? Not quite sure what you
need? Do you need help with your host board?
LS Research Design Services will be happy to
develop custom hardware or software, integrate
the design, or license the design so you can
manufacture yourself. Contact us at
sales@lsr.com or call us at 262-375-4400.
