NXP Semiconductors has released the new JN5189 and JN5188 IEEE 802.15.4 wireless microcontrollers (MCUs) that deliver ultra-low power connected intelligence for Zigbee 3.0 and Thread applications. The devices provide an integrated NFC NTAG while supporting a wide operating temperature range (-40°C to +125°C). They also include MCU peripherals making them ideal for smart home, building automation, sensor network, smart lighting and numerous other battery-powered applications.
The JN5188 and JN5189 are powered by an Arm Cortex-M4 running at 48 MHz and include up to 640 KB of onboard flash and 152 KB SRAM, providing storage space and flexibility for complex applications and software over-the-air (OTA) updates.
The optional NFC NTAG provides standardised out-of-band communications to dramatically simplify the pairing process. Users tap a JN5189T/JN518T-based Internet-of-Things (IoT) device to an NFC reader for quick connection to a Zigbee and/or Thread network. The integrated NFC NTAG also allows for powerless access to devices for system diagnostics and device commissioning.
