2 Development Kit Overview
ZigBit™ Development Kit (ZDK) is a simple, out-of-the-box solution designed for full
range of WSN prototyping and development. It comes complete with ATZB-EVB
(MeshBean) development boards containing ZigBit modules and a variety of tools to
test the wireless network features and performance and to develop customized
wireless solutions based on BitCloud Software.
ZigBit Development Kit includes:
1. Any one type of ATZB-EVB (MeshBean) board (1 item) –
ATZB-EVB-24-SMA/ ATZB-EVB-900-SMA/ ATZB-EVB-24-
A2/ ATZB-EVB-A24-SMA/ ATZB-EVB-24-PCB
2. USB 2.0 A/mini-B cable (3 items)
3. Swivel antenna (1/2 wave antenna)
4. Software & Documentation Distribution CD (1 item).
3 Hardware General Specifications
ATZB-EVB (MeshBean) board is intended to evaluate the performance of a ZigBit
module. In turn, a ZigBit module with the embedded BitCloud software provides
wireless connectivity for ATZB-EVB (MeshBean) board, enabling it as a node in a
ZigBee network. MeshBeans also serve as a reference hardware platform for the
customer’s target devices utilizing ZigBit modules for wireless communication.
The ATZB-EVB (MeshBean) board can be configured to operate as a network
coordinator, a router or an end device, by setting of DIP switches (see Section 0)
and/or sending AT-commands. The node’s role is defined by the embedded
application.
The boards are delivered with ZigBit preprogrammed with Serial Bootloader and
WSNDemo application firmware. For full list of demo applications see Section 3.2.
Gerber files are available with Complete Support Package only.The ATZB-EVB
(MeshBean) basic parameters are presented in Table 1.
