The TWR-RF-SNAP provides wireless mesh networking via the FCC Certified Synapse Wireless SM700 RF Engine. The SM700 is based on the NXP MC13224 chip which combines a 32-bit ARM7 MCU with an IEEE 802.15.4 radio transceiver.</p> <p>The TWR-RF-SNAP module can function standalone or within the Tower System. As part of the Tower System, the TWR-RF-SNAP can interface with Tower System controller modules via SPI and can access available Tower System peripheral modules using UART or I2C. The TWR-RF-SNAP also includes a General Purpose Tower Plug-in (TWRPI) socket allowing direct access to a selection of sensor plug-ins via I2C.</p> <p>A SN132 USB Dongle is also included with the TWR-RF-SNAP. The USB Dongle features the RF100 RF Engine based on a NXP MC9S08 MCU and the NXP MC13191 radio. The USB dongle provides a communication portal to a host computer via USB.</p> <p>The TWR-RF-SNAP can be accessed in Synapse&rsquo;s Portal IDE using either the on-board USB or wirelessly using the included RF100 USB Dongle.</p> <p><strong>Key Applications:</strong> <strong>Connectivity</strong> (ZigBee&reg; for Home Area Network Metering), <strong>Industrial</strong> (Advanced Heat Meter,

(TWR-RF-SNAP) is a peripheral Tower System Module. The TWR-RF-SNAP provides wireless mesh networking via the FCC Certified Synapse Wireless SM700 RF Engine. The SM700 is based on the NXP MC13224 chip which combines a 32-bit ARM7 MCU with an IEEE 802.15.4 radio transceiver.</p> <p>The TWR-RF-SNAP module can function standalone or within the Tower System. As part of the Tower System, the TWR-RF-SNAP can interface with Tower System controller modules via SPI and can access available Tower System peripheral modules using UART or I2C. The TWR-RF-SNAP also includes a General Purpose Tower Plug-in (TWRPI) socket allowing direct access to a selection of sensor plug-ins via I2C.</p> <p>A SN132 USB Dongle is also included with the TWR-RF-SNAP. The USB Dongle features the RF100 RF Engine based on a NXP MC9S08 MCU and the NXP MC13191 radio. The USB dongle provides a communication portal to a host computer via USB.</p> <p>The TWR-RF-SNAP can be accessed in Synapse&rsquo;s Portal IDE using either the on-board USB or wirelessly using the included RF100 USB Dongle.</p> <p><strong>Key Applications:</strong> <strong>Connectivity</strong> (ZigBee&reg; for Home Area Network Metering), <strong>Industrial</strong> (Advanced Heat Meter, Low-End Mechanical Type with AMR add-on Meter, Mid-End Electronic Prepaid Type Meter)</p> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Features</h3> <ul> <li>Features the SM700 802.15.4 RF Engine from Synapse Wireless, based on the NXP MC13224 module</li> <li>Pre-loaded with SNAP Network Operating System</li> <li>Push button inputs and user controlled LEDs</li> <li>On-board low-power linear active thermistor and light sensor</li> <li>On-board Tower Plug-in (TWRPI) connector for the addition of standard NXP TWRPI modules</li> <li>Configurable access to Tower Elevator connector allows for interaction with other NXP Tower modules (UART, SPI and I2C)</li> <li>MicroUSB connector provides power and serial connectivity</li> <li>Multiple powering options</li> <li>Access to additional GPIOs on SM700 via header block</li> <li>Optional battery connector for untethered operation</li> <li>Included SN132 USB Dongle with RF100 RF Engine for wireless access to a host computer</li> </ul> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Ships With</h3> <ul> <li>TWR&ndash;RF&ndash;SNAP Module</li> <li>Quick Start Guide document</li> </ul> <div id="devtool-required-devtools-section" class="xs-hide"> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-mb1 xs-border-bottom">Required Tools</h3> <div id="devtool-required-devtools-content"></div> </div> <div id="devtool-accessory-devtools-section" class="xs-hide"> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-mb1 xs-border-bottom">Accessory Tools</h3> <div id="devtool-accessory-devtools-content"></div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Documents</h3> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Product Brief/Fact sheet</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://cache.nxp.com/files/microcontrollers/doc/fact_sheet/TWRFS.pdf" target="_blank">Fact Sheet for Freescale Tower System (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Quick Start Guide</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://cache.nxp.com/files/32bit/doc/quick_ref_guide/RFSNAPQSG.pdf" target="_blank">Quick Start Guide for TWR-RF-SNAP RF Wireless Mesh Networking Tower System Module (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">User Manual/Guide</h4> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://cache.nxp.com/files/32bit/doc/user_guide/TWR_RF_SNAP_UM.pdf" target="_blank">User Manual for TWR-RF-SNAP RF Wireless Mesh Networking Tower System Module (pdf)</a> </div> </div> <h3 class="toc-item xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Downloads</h3> <div class="xs-px2"> <h4 class="xs-pb2 xs-border-bottom">Schematics/Layout Files</h4> <div class="attachment "> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://cache.nxp.com/files/32bit/doc/support_info/900-76126_TWR-MECHDRW.pdf" target="_blank">Tower Mechanical Drawing (pdf)</a> </div> <div class="attachment xs-mb3"> <i class="fal fa-file-pdf"></i> <a href="http://cache.nxp.com/files/32bit/hardware_tools/schematics/TWR_RF_SNAP_SCH.pdf" target="_blank">Schematic file for TWR-RF-SNAP RF Wireless Mesh Networking Tower System Module (pdf)</a> </div> </div> </div> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: mesh networking, MC13224, ieee802154, wireless, analog_demo_boards, nxp</div>
