Targeted to address the need for low data rate, low cost wireless sensor and control networks, ZigBee® is a wireless technology based on the IEEE 802.15.4 global standard ensuring interoperability and reliable communication. Given its unique advantages, ZigBee supports star, cluster and mesh wireless network topologies making it well suited for short range and low power applications. In combination with the MRF24J40 2.4 GHz transceiver and MRF24J40MA transceiver module, the free ZigBee protocol software stack and PIC® microcontrollers offers Microchip customers a complete ZigBee Compliant Platform.
In addition to the ZigBee protocol stack, Microchip also offers the MiWi™ Development Environment which includes support to MiWi™ and MiWi™ P2P protocol stacks - a lower cost, small footprint alternative to ZigBee.
