ATZB-RF-233-1-C ZigBit® is an ultra-compact and low-power 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee® OEM module 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 up to +124 dB. Based on the innovative mixed-signal hardware platform from Microchip, this module uses the AT86RF233 2.4 GHz ISM band transceiver with the FEM on a very compact module design that provides user the ability to integrate the module into a design using any of the recommended Microchip Microcontrollers fitting the application requirements. The radio transceiver provides high data rates from 250 kb/s up to 2 Mb/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, and 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 module has an MS-147 RF connector that can be used as an RF test port. The built-in chip antenna is designed and tuned for the ZigBit design to enable quick integration of the ZigBit into any application.
