MiWi Demo Kit - 868 MHz MRF89XA
MiWi Demo Kit – 868 MHz MRF89XA is an easy-to-use evaluation and development platform for 868 MHz applications. This kit includes Microchip’s MRF89XAM8A transceiver module and also features Microchip’s PIC18 XLP microcontroller family. The kit includes complete hardware needed to rapidly prototype wireless applications. The demonstration kit is pre-programmed with MiWi™ protocol stack.
Developers can reprogram or modify the PIC18 MCU Flash memory and develop/debug application code all on the same platform.
Note: This kit is not intended for ZigBee® development.
MRF89XAM8A is an 868 MHz radio transceiver module which conforms to European ETSI standard. The MRF89XAM8A has an integrated PCB antenna, matching circuitry, and supports Microchip's proprietary protocol MiWi™ Development Environment. The MRF89XAM8A Module connects to hundreds of PIC® microcontrollers via a 4-wire SPI interface.
