Evaluation Kit Atmel REB233SMAD-EK
The REB233SMAD-EK demonstrates the unique performance and rich feature set of the 2.4GHz RF transceiver AT86RF233 combined with the leading edge ATxmega256A3 microcontroller.
Detailed Description
The REB233SMAD-EK contains two sets of Radio Extender Board(REB), Controller Base Board (REB-CBB) and USB cable to enable PC connectivity.
The Atmel AT86RF233 transceiver is optimized for industrial and consumer products that comply with ZigBee/IEEE 802.15.4, IPv6 over low-power wireless personal area networks (6LoWPAN) and high data rate 2.4GHz industrial, scientific and medical (ISM) band applications.
The REB is assembled with an AT86RF233 and two SMA antennas, demonstrating the unrivaled hardware based Antenna Diversity feature to improve radio link robustness in adverse RF environments. The REB connected to the REB-CBB forms a fully functional, battery powered wireless node.
REB Controller Base Board Features
- High-performance, low-power Atmel 8/16-bit AVR XMEGA microcontroller ATxmega256A3
- 256KB in-system, self-programmable flash
- 8KB boot code section with independent lock bits
- 16KB internal SRAM
- 4KB EEPROM
- 2Mb serial flash for support of over-the-air (OTA) upgrades
- Programming interface
- Fully functional wireless node in combination with the Atmel Radio Extender Board (REB)
