NTRODUCTION

 

The  DZ-ZB  is  low-power,  high  sensitivity  IEEE  802.15.4  /  ZigBee-compliant  module.  This  multi-functional  device  based  on 
STMicroelectronics STM32W108 fully integrated System-on-Chip [1]. The STM32W108 integrates a 2.4 GHz, IEEE 802.15.4-
compliant  transceiver,  32-

bit  ARM®  Cortex™-M3  microprocessor,  Flash  and  RAM  memory,  and  peripherals  of  use  to 

designers  of  ZigBee-based  systems  [2].    Block  diagrams  of  DZ-ZB  Module  is  show  on  Figure  2.1  and  utilizes 
STM32W108CBU6x version of the high performance, IEEE 802.15.4 compliant, wireless system-on-chip STM32W108 family.

DZ-ZB  modules  are  available  in  two  different  product  lines:  without/with  PA/LNA  Front-End  (FE).  Both  product  lines 
offering  three  ZigBee  stack  configurations.  The  first  decision  you  need  to  make  is  if  you  want  the  Output  option.  The 
following options are available: 

 

A  - Embedded SMD Antenna  

 

P  - Single ended 50 Ohm RF Pad 

 

U  - U.FL 50 Ohm coaxial connector 

The second decision you need to make is Power level option. The following options are available: 

 

S  - St 7dBm 

 

R  - Front End (PA and LNA) with RF output power level de 20 dBm 

 

T  - Front End (PA and LNA) + 20 dBm 

The third decision you need to make ZigBee stack. The following options are available: 

 

F  - RF4CE stack 

 

X  - Proprietary stack 

 

Z  - EmberZnet PRO stack 

The final decision is level of electromagnetic immunity (EMI) protection. The following options are available: 

 

M  - Metal cap shielding enabling enhanced level of electromagnetic immunity (EMI) protection 

 

S  -  Standard, without metal shielding cap 

 

The next chapters will explain each of all options.
