Chipcon CC2480
The CC2480 (formerly known as CCZACC06) is a cost-effective, low power, Z-Accel ZigBee Processor that provides full ZigBee functionality with a minimal development effort. The CC2480 handles all the timing critical and processing intensive ZigBee protocol tasks, and leaves the resources of the application microcontroller free to handle the application. CC2480 supports TI’s SimpleAPI.APPLICATIONS
● ZigBee™ systems● Home/Building automation
● Industrial control and monitoring
● Low power wireless sensor networks
● Set-top boxes and remote controls
● Automated Meter Reading
DESCRIPTION
Z-Accel is a solution where TI’s ZigBee stack, Z-Stack, runs on a ZigBee Processor and the application runs on an external microcontroller. CC2480 supports TI’s SimpleAPI. SimpleAPI has only 10 API calls to learn, which drastically simplifies the development of ZigBee applications. Z-Accel makes it easy to add ZigBee to new or existing products at the same time as it provides great flexibility in choice of microcontroller. CC2480 interfaces any microcontroller through an SPI or UART interface. There is no need to learn a new microcontroller or new tools. CC2480 can for example be combined with an MSP430. KeyFEATURES
● Simple integration of ZigBee into any design● Running the mature and stable ZigBee 2006 compliant TI Z-Stack
● SPI or UART interface to any microcontroller running the...
