ZigBee module, features the CC2530F256 onboard, XBee compatible interface
This product includes ONLY one CC2530 module, while at least two CC2530 modules are required to setup a ZigBee network.
Overview
Core2530is a ZigBee module based onCC2530F256, and the extension interface is compatible with XBee.
Basically this module can be used in two aspects :
Develop application with the provided firmware
Combined with our provided firmware, this is a simple ZigBee wireless UART module, just as easy to use as any other UART module, and requires NO knowledge about the complicate ZigBee Specification
Develop your own firmware
In this case, you should start from the very underlying to create your solution, what's more, debuggers (like CC Debugger) and knowledge about ZigBee Specification are also required
Core2530 (B) Features
As easy to use as any UART modules
Provided firmware : Coordinator, Router, End Device
Router firmware is preloaded by default
Supports sending large data packet & fast broadcasting via UART
Supports programming via UART (thanks to the Bootloader, and an serial module is required)
Supports configuring via upper computer software : working mode, UART port, baudrate, signal channel, etc.
Optional hardware interface
XBee compatible straight through pin headers (soldered by default)
SMT stamp holes are also available (for batch purchase, the pin headers can be removed if required)
MISC
Auto networking (at least 1 Coordinator and 1 Router are required)
Real-time monitoring the signal intensity between Coordinator, Router, and End Device
