Product data sheet
1. General description
The JN517x series is a range of ultra low power, high performance wireless microcontrollers suitable for Zig Bee applications to facilitate the development of Smart Home and Smart Lighting applications. It Features a high-performance and low-power ARM Cortex-M3 processor with debug with programmable clock speeds. The JN517x devices are available in JN5174, JN5178 and JN5179 variants, respectively having 160 k B, 256 k B and 512 k B of embedded Flash memory as well as 32 k B of RAM and 4 k B of EEPROM. The embedded Flash can support “Over-The-Air” code download of software stacks. Radio transmit power is configurable up to +10 d Bm output. The very-low receive operating current (down to 12.7 m A and with a 0.6 A sleep timer mode) gives excellent battery life allowing operation direct from a coin cell. The JN517x also includes a 2.4 GHz “IEEE802.15.4 pliant” transceiver and a prehensive mix of analog and digital peripherals.
The JN517x is ideal for battery-operated applications supported through the prehensive power-saving modes available in the device. The on-chip peripherals, which include a fail-safe I2C-bus, SPI-bus ports (both master and slave), and a six-channel analog-digital converter with internal temperature sensor support a wide range of applications directly without extra hardware.
