Chipcon claims its new CC2430 family is the world's first available true One-Chip ZigBee solution. The IC is a key part of Chipcon's SmartRF03 product family, and is based on Chipcon's CC2420 ZigBee radio transceiver which it says has already surpassed 1 million units shipped. Measuring 7x7 mm, the 48-pin CC2430 represents an extremely clean design combining a robust radio, programmable microcontroller, flash memory, and both IEEE802.15.4 and ZigBee software.
The CC2430 represents Chipcon's second generation ZigBee compliant platform. It combines the 2,4 GHz radio transceiver of its IEEE 802.15.4-compliant CC2420, with an industry proven, compact and efficient 8051 microcontroller. The CC2430 SoC family consists of three products (CC2430-F32, CC2430-F64 and CC2430-F128). The difference between them is the different flash configurations, 32, 64 and 128 KB with each configuration having 8 KB of RAM and other powerful supporting features. During receive and transmit modes, the current consumption of the CC2430 is as low as 27 mA and 25 mA respectively. CC2430's sleep modes and its short transition times to active modes make it an ideal solution for applications that require very long battery lifetime.
