JN5121 Wireless Modules (IEEE802.15.4 and ZigBee)
The JN5121-xxx-Myy is a family of surface mounted modules that enable users to implement IEEE802.15.4 or ZigBee compliant systems with minimum time to market and at the lowest cost. They remove the need for expensive and lengthy development of custom RF board designs and test suites. The modules use Jennic's JN5121 wireless microcontroller to provide a comprehensive solution, including all RF components. All that is required to develop and manufacture wireless control or sensing products is to connect a power supply and peripherals such as switches, actuators, sensors, considerably simplifying product development.
Three basic hardware module variants are available: JN5121-xxx-M00 with an integrated antenna, JN5121-xxx-M01/M03 with an antenna connector and JN5121-xxx-M02/M04 with a power amplifier and LNA for extended range. Each of these can be provided pre-programmed with a ZigBee network stack (JN5121-Z01-Myy) or with customer-specific software.
