Freescale unveils next-generation device in single-chip IEEE® 802.15.4/ZigBee® Platform-in-Package™ family
Freescale Semiconductor is now sampling the next-generation MC13224 device in its single-chip IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee® Platform-in-PackageTM (PiP) family. This family is based on IEEE® 802.15.4 technology, known for its benefits in the areas of cost, performance and efficiency for real-time remote monitoring and control.
MC13224 device eases development of a wide range of wireless industrial and home entertainment applications
The latest addition to the MC1322x family is designed for a range of wireless applications, including energy management, commercial building automation, industrial control and monitoring and home entertainment control. The family supports existing protocols, such as SMAC, IEEE 802.15.4 MAC, ZigBee stack and SynkroTM network protocol stack, with the ability to support the WirelessHARTTM specification, ISA100 and 6LoWPAN.
The MC13224 device is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 specification and designed to provide a highly integrated, total solution with premier processing capabilities and very low power consumption. Freescale has done this by integrating the essential components of an IEEE 802.15.4 based application within a single package, requiring designers to add only an antenna and crystal.
