Integrated ZigBee front end module optimized for smart energy and advanced metering
ZigBee is a global low power wireless networking standard for monitoring and control across a variety of applications, including energy management, safety and security, home automation, lighting, and electrical appliances.
The RF6555 combines the power amplifier (PA), harmonic transmit filtering, and low noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass mode in a single 5-mm x 5-mm x 1-mm package, enabling customers to shrink product footprint, accelerate product time-to-market, lower bill of material (BOM) costs, and reduce power consumption for Smart Energy and Home Area Network (HAN) applications.
The RF6555 is ideally suited for battery operated smart grid and smart energy applications, such as smart meters, demand response, and HAN devices. It is also suited for industrial and other wireless sensing and control applications requiring low power consumption, high performance, and proven reliability.
The RF6555 operates with Ember’s EM300 Series chips — the EM351 and the EM357, in both system-on-chip (SoC) and network co-processor modes, as well as with Ember’s EM250 SoC and EM260 network co-processor.
The EM300 Series is Ember’s next-generation ZigBee chip family, and the world’s foremost ARM Cortex-M3 based ZigBee SoC, claiming to pack the industry’s highest wireless networking performance and application code space into the lowest power-consuming chip set.
