XB24-AUI-001

RF transceiver modules provide a convenient way for wireless transmission of both data and power. XB24-AUI-001, one of the most popular RF transceiver modules on the market, is a long-range low-cost module designed for point-to-point, multipoint, and mesh network applications. It is built with a wide variety of communication protocols, including ZigBee, Z-Wave, Thread, 6LoWPAN, 802.15.4, and more.

XB24-AUI-001 is based on the IEEE 802.15.4 physical layer standard and is compliant with the ZigBee protocol stack. It also provides two versions of the radio operating bands, including the 868MHz Band or the 900MHz Band. It offers radio output power of up to 500mW (200mW @ 868MHz), with receive sensitivity of -121dBm @ 868MHz.

The XB24-AUI-001 module is designed with a high level of integration, containing an RF Transceiver and an embedded microcontroller. The transceiver uses an AVR processor core and has 32KB of program memory, 512KB of SRAM, and 2KB of EEPROM memory, which provides plenty of space for storing data received from the sensor nodes, as well as code for assigning a unique address to each node. The module also includes an on-board antenna, two analog inputs, five digital outputs, and two digital inputs.

XB24-AUI-001 is designed to enable wireless network nodes to communicate with each other in a mesh network. The mesh network protocol is based on Star topology, where each node communicates directly with its parent node and can then provide a multi-hop path for data transmission. The module also includes a duty cycle signal, which enables nodes to sleep and conserve power, while still staying connected to the network. This helps to minimize power consumption and extends battery life.

The XB24-AUI-001 module operates on a 1.8V to 3.3V supply voltage range and supports both the ATmega 1284P and ATmega 2488P microcontroller. The module can be programmed in C or assembly language, and supports a variety of communication protocols, such as SPI, UART, I2C, PWM, and others. It also includes a temperature sensor, humidity sensor, and voltage regulator for improved power savings.

The XB24-AUI-001 module is an ideal solution for a variety of point-to-point, multipoint, and mesh network applications, such as wireless sensor networks, home automation, industrial automation, and energy management systems. Its integration of reliable communication protocols and low-power operation make it an attractive solution for a variety of applications where power conserving is beneficial.
