FlexiPanel EasyBee is an IEEE compliant RF transceiver. It enables designers to easily add ZigBee / IEEE wireless capability to their products without the need for RF or antenna design expertise. The module contains all RF circuitry, including integral antenna and controller in a simple-to-use, plug-in or surface mount module. A 4-wire SPI port interfaces to a baseband microcontroller. The PHY Physical layer includes an impedance matched balun and integral antenna. The MAC Media Access Control layer includes CRC-16 generation, clear channel assessment, signal energy detection, security, encryption and authentication. EasyBee is a fully capable device and a ZigBee networking layer is not required for point-to-point communication. If ZigBee is required, compatible ZigBee stacks include Microchip Technology’s free ZigBee stack, and Figure-8’s ZigBee stack. This module is an application-ready solution for fast-to-market ZigBee and IEEE communications, providing the development engineer unlimited choice of host controller and stack firmware provider.
