1. Introduction to the Development Kit
Welcome to the JN517x-DK005 Development Kit, which is based around the NXP
JN517x family of wireless microcontrollers. A ZigBee Smart Home Demonstration is
pre-loaded into certain kit components, allowing a small wireless network with IP
connectivity to be quickly assembled and used. The development kit can also be used
in conjunction with NXP’s range of Software Developer’s Kits (SDKs) to develop new
wireless network applications for the JN517x devices. Support resources are also
provided to allow the integration of a network into the ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT).
The wireless network protocols supported by the development kit are as follows:
IEEE 802.15.4
ZigBee 3.0 with ZigBee Lighting & Occupancy (ZLO) devices
