1 Introduction
The MC13242 is a 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific, and
Medical (ISM) and Medical Body Area Network
www.DataSheet.co.kr
(MBAN) transceiver intended for the IEEE® 802.15.4
Standard. The MC13242 device is a standalone
transceiver that is normally combined with a software
stack and a Freescale Kinetis MCU to implement an
IEEE 802.15.4 Standard platform solution.
The MC13242 contains a complete 802.15.4 physical
layer (PHY) modem designed for the IEEE® 802.15.4
Standard which supports peer-to-peer, star, and mesh
networking. When combined with an appropriate
microcontroller (MCU), the MC13242 provides a
cost-effective solution for short-range data links and
networks. Interface with the MCU is accomplished using
a four wire serial peripheral interface (SPI) connection
and an interrupt request output, which allows for the use
of a variety of processors. The software and processor
can be scaled to fit applications ranging from simple
point-to-point systems, to complete ZigBee networks.
