Atmel får ZigBee software certificeret

Atmel har fået ZigBee 'Smart Energy' certifikation for deres BitCloud software stak (in english)

Atmel has announced that the BitCloud ZigBee PRO stack has been awarded ZigBee Smart Energy product certification. BitCloud Smart Energy offers utility companies a secure, proven and easy-to-use technology for wireless home area networks (HANs) by connecting in-premise devices, such as meters, thermostats and smart appliances, to each other and to wide area energy distribution and control networks.

ZigBee Smart Energy enables utility companies and individual homeowners to manage energy usage, control residential peak demand and reduce overall environmental impact.

BitCloud SE is a ready-to-use framework for rapid development and certification of ZigBee Smart Energy devices. It provides the underlying security and protocol stacks to ensure full interoperability and seamless communication across the HAN and comes with a complete reference implementation for ZigBee Smart Energy device types.

- The certification of Atmel's BitCloud Smart Energy further expands options for ZigBee Smart Energy product developers. BitCloud Smart Energy joins a growing list of ZigBee Smart Energy solutions specifically focused on creating the Smart Grid through home area networks, says Benno Ritter, Vice President of Marketing for the ZigBee Alliance.

- BitCloud SE has been certified by National Technical Systems (NTS) using our high performance, low power AT86RF231 RF-transceiver, in combination with our newest generation of ATxmega256A3 8-bit microcontrollers, says Magnus Pedersen, Marketing Director for MCU Wireless Solutions, Atmel Corporation.

- Devices in the AVR XMEGA microcontroller family is ideal to run low-power wireless designs, simultaneous with ZigBee stack and profiles for end-user applications.

BitCloud SE applications can be deployed on a standalone microcontroller or on a host microcontroller connected to a dedicated ZigBee Smart Energy co-processor.

Standalone microcontroller solution address the need for smaller footprint, low-power devices, such as water meters and thermostats, while the ZigBee co-processor option is targeted at larger devices, including energy service portals, and offers unlimited flexibility in the designer's choice of host microcontroller. BitCloud SE also comes with a serial protocol and communications library to simplify the development of ZigBee Smart Energy applications on the host.
