Smart Grid - ZigBee® HAN/Smart Energy
RFMD’s portfolio of single-chip integrated front end modules (FEMs) are developed for high-performance ZigBee® Home Area Network(HAN) / Smart Energy applications in the 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz ISM band. The RF6555, RF6535, and RF6525 are specifically designed to operate with the Ember EM300 Series, EM351 and EM357 as well as EM250 SoC, and EM260 network co-processor. The FEMs address the need for aggressive size reduction in an IEEE 802.15.4 front end design and offer a reduced footprint and minimized component count.
