New NeoMesh protocol stack version

27 September 2023 Circuit & System Protection

NeoCortec, manufacturer of ultra-low-power, bi-directional wireless mesh network modules, has released an updated NeoMesh protocol stack version 1.6 firmware for its NC2400 and NC1000 module series. The modules now support the new Sensirion SHT4xA temperature and humidity sensor series.

The firmware of the NC2400 and NC1000 modules already includes a generic application layer, which can be configured to sample a broad range of sensors so that no programming is required to implement a wireless sensor device. The release of the new version 1.6 firmware now enables easy integration of Sensirion SHT4xA sensors to significantly broaden the options to build cost-effective ultra-low power wireless temperature and humidity sensors for use across large areas, for example, in smart building or agriculture applications.

NeoCortec develops a range of tiny modules that enable the collection of data over large areas and benefit from an average power consumption as low as 20 µA, translating into years of running on two AA batteries. The NeoMesh modules are all equipped with radio and can simply be positioned throughout an area or building as required. To start building a NeoMesh network, only two nodes are required to be switched on before the network starts to establish itself.

Additional nodes added will automatically join the existing network to expand it with regard to the number of devices and the overall range. All nodes in a NeoMesh wireless network are equal – each can generate and transmit data.

The protocol stack is almost infinitely expandable for most applications as up to 65 000 nodes are possible in one network. The technology is pre-certified and well established. Cost efficient and easy to integrate, the modules suit a broad range of applications based on IoT and Cloud-based sensor networks, including smart building and smart workplace, metering, security, agriculture, transportation, industry 4.0, medical and food distribution.
