ZigBit 2.4GHz Wireless Module

ATZB-RF-233-1-C ZigBit is an ultra-compact and low-power 2.4GHz IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee OEM module from Atmel with a Built in RF Front End Module (FEM) that has an integrated Power amplifier and Low noise amplifier. This helps the ZigBit reach a very high Link budget of upto +124dB. Based on the innovative mixed-signal hardware platform from Atmel, this module uses the AT86RF233 [4]/2.4GHz ISM band Transceiver with the FEM on a very compact Module design that provides the customer to integrate the module to any of the recommended Atmel's Microcontrollers that the application fits. The radio transceiver provides high data rates from 250kb/s up to 2Mb/s, frame handling, outstanding receiver sensitivity and high transmit output power enabling a very robust wireless communication. The module is designed for wireless sensing, monitoring, control, data acquisition applications, to name a few. This ZigBit module eliminates the need for costly and time-consuming RF development, and shortens time-to-market for wireless applications.

The applications include, but are not limited to Building automation & monitoring, HVAC monitoring & control, inventory management, environmental monitoring, security, water metering, industrial monitoring, automated meter reading (AMR). The ZigBit module is compatible with robust IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee stack that supports a self-healing, self-organizing mesh network, while optimizing network traffic and minimizing power consumption.
