Single-chip Zigbee node with 256 kB of application space
Receiver sensitivity of -97 dBm gives roughly 12 dB of link margin over the 802.15.4 minimum, which matters when the node sits behind a concrete wall or at the far end of a warehouse aisle. The 21 GPIOs support a mix of digital sensors, switches, and indicator LEDs; the SPI and USART serial interfaces connect external memory or a host processor if the application outgrows the on-chip RAM.
