Demonstration Kit Atmel ATAVRRZ200

Detailed Description

The kits contains five 802.15.4 compatible 2.4 GHz Radio-Controller Board (RCB) with AT86RF230 radio and ATmega1281V microcontroller.

The five RCBs are identical and each contains a radio and microcontroller. The microcontroller contains the application firmware needed to run the demonstration. This aplication is linked to the MAC (Medium Access Control), PHY, and HAL layers that communicate with the AT86FR230. The Display Board is used to configure and monitor the network devices.
