The supplied router, which runs NXP OpenWRT firmware,
makes it easy to develop solutions that include sensor-
equipped objects as part of the “Internet of Things.”
Using the various demos included in the kit, designers can
quickly produce demonstrators or proof-of-concept products.
The same software can then be used for end products, using
JN516x ICs or modules.
The Smart Lighting demo, which makes use of nearly all the
kit’s components, is a JenNet-IP demo that uses the router
to support USB connection to a WLAN or the Internet. The
evaluation kit can easily be Flash programmed for use with
ZigBee LL, ZigBee SE, or RF4CE demos.
The ZigBee SE demo lets the user experiment with an energy
service portal (via the USB dongle), an in-premise display
(using the display expansion board), standalone meters for
electricity and gas, or a range extender.
The ZigBee LL demo gives the designer remote control of
color LEDs on the lighting expansion board.
The RF4CE demo lets the user select, play, forward, stop,
pause, or change the volume on Windows media player.

The JN516x series
JN516x series devices feature an enhanced 32-bit RISC
processor with embedded Flash and EEPROM memory,
offering high coding efficiency through variable width
instructions, a multi-stage instruction pipeline,
and low-power operation with programmable clock speeds.
They also include a 2.4 GHz IEEE802.15.4-compliant transceiver
and a comprehensive mix of analog and digital peripherals.
