Kit Overview

The Texas Instruments CC2530ZDK-ZNP-MINI ZigBee Network Processor Mini Development Kit is the perfect introduction to ZigBee wireless sensor networks. The CC2530ZNP Mini Development Kit is designed for engineers who want to get familiar with the ZigBee Network Processor concept without having to port a lot of software to get up and running. The ZigBee Network Processor allows adding ZigBee interface to any application using a simple serial interface.

The development kit comes with three target boards which allow users to set up a small ZigBee network. Two boards can be mobile using two AAA batteries provided in the kit. The kit sensor boards include accelerometer, temperature sensor, and light sensor that can be used in conjunction with led lights and push buttons to develop simple demo applications.

The free IAR MSP430 kickstart compiler can be used for developing, downloading and debugging software on the kit - no additional tools are required. The eZ430 USB stick included in the kit is used both as debug probe and USB serial port interface.

The example software includes 30+ educational MSP430 wireless sensor applications that provide step by step examples how to develop wireless sensor applications:

UART Interface
Light Sensor Interface
Accelerometer Interface

Key Applications: ZigBee Packet Error Rate tester, Secure ZigBee Communication, Basic ZigBee Networks, Coordinator/Router/End-device, Alarm and security, Industrial and home automation, Medical and health, Metering and smart energy, Portable consumer and enterprise, Remote controls, Wireless audio.
