Overview
Jennic’s IEEE802.15.4 evaluation kit provides a complete environment for the rapid
development of wireless sensor network applications based on the JN5139 wireless
microcontroller. All the hardware and software required for product development is
included, with five network nodes, an unrestricted software development kit, test
environment and support applications. Multiple wireless networks including point-to-
point, star, and mesh types can be supported.
A demonstrator of a home automation system is included that monitors data from
remote sensors and displays the results onto the controller’s LCD display, while
commands sent between the nodes activate control signals. This is provided as an
example to be directly used as the basis for many product developments.
The test environment supplied includes Daintree Networks’ Sensor Network Analyser
that demonstrates advanced wireless sensor network data capture and monitoring.
A basic packet sniffer and network test application also aids program development.
