RFMD’s newly-introduced RF6535 ZigBee front end module (FEM) has been combined with Freescale’s MC1321x system-
in-package (SiP) to create the RF6535/MC1321x reference design, which is targeted at ZigBee Smart Energy and Home Area Network (HAN) applications that require high RF performance to ensure robust and reliable operation in varied environments.
RFMD’s highly integrated RF6535 features a 2,4 GHz to 2,5 GHz +22 dBm power amplifier, Tx harmonic output filter, double-pole double-throw (DPDT) diversity switch and a low-noise amplifier (LNA). The IC is housed in a 3,5 x 3,5 x 0,5 mm package. The transceiver interface is a two-port Rx/Tx integrated balun. The RF6535 is specifically optimised for Smart Energy/AMI applications including smart meters, and HAN devices including home energy gateways, in-home displays and appliances.
Freescale’s MC1321x family incorporates a low-power 2,4 GHz radio frequency transceiver and a microcontroller into a single LGA package. Coupled with RFMD’s RF6535 FEM, the MC1321X fits well with most ZigBee applications in consumer electronics, energy management, health care, home automation, telecommunication services and building and industrial automation.
