Merging the performance and ease-of-use of Stellaris ARM Cortex-M3-based microcontrollers (MCU) with leading wireless connectivity solutions, Texas Instruments has launched three new wireless kits.
The kits serve as modular extensions to TI’s Stellaris DK-LM3S9B96 development kit to give engineers complete software and reference design solutions for adding RFID, low-power RF and ZigBee capabilities to designs. With this offering, TI is building on its broad portfolio of 16-bit, ultra-low-power MSP430-based wireless connectivity solutions, now providing 32-bit Stellaris MCU performance for execution of additional advanced connectivity and control functions.
When coupled with the DK-LM3S9B96 development board, each kit includes all of the hardware and software needed to jumpstart design, and the quickstart application included in each kit allows developers to immediately evaluate working networks in 10 minutes or less. The performance and integration of Stellaris MCUs paired with TI’s leading wireless solutions will help developers address the demand for extensible functionality in wireless networking applications, such as pre-pay options in smart metering, remote monitoring for home automation and backup systems for security, alarm and plant engineering.
The Stellaris 13.56 MHz RFID Wireless Kit is priced at $99 US and available to order at www.ti.com/wk-7960r-pr-es. The Stellaris 2.4 GHz SimpliciTI Wireless Kit is priced at $125 US and available to order at www.ti.com/wk-2500s-pr-es. The Stellaris ZigBee Networking Kit is priced at $249 and available to order at www.ti.com/wk-2520z-pr-es. The Stellaris EM2 Expansion Board is priced at $39 US and available to order at www.ti.com/wk-em2-pr-es. The DK-LM3S9B96, sold separately and priced at $425 US, is also immediately available to order at www.ti.com/wk- lm3s9b96-pr-es.
