It enables ZigBee® nodes to be built with very low total bill-of material costs. The CC2430 combines the excellent performance of the leading CC2420 RF transceiver with an industry-standard enhanced 8051 MCU, 32/64/128 KB flash memory, 8 KB RAM and many other powerful features. Combined with the industry leading ZigBee® protocol stack (Z-Stack™) from Texas Instruments, the CC2430 provides the market’s most competitive ZigBee® solution. The CC2430 is highly suited for systems where ultra low power consumption is required. This is ensured by various operating modes. Short transition times between operating modes further ensure low power consumption. Features RF/Layout 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 compliant RF transceiver (industry leading CC2420 radio core) Excellent receiver sensitivity and robustness to interferers Very few external components Simple external pinout interface Only a single crystal needed for mesh network systems RoHS compliant and Small size board Power solutionLow current (RX: 27 mA, TX: 28mA) Excellent receiver sensitivity(-92dBm) Nominal output power(0 dBm) Only 0.5 µA current consumption in powerdown mode, where external interrupts or the RTC can wake up the system 0.3 µA current consumption in stand-by mode, where external interrupts can wake up the system Very fast transition times from power modes to active mode enables ultra low average power consumption in low dutycycle systems Wide supply voltage range (2.0V - 3.6V) Microcontroller High performance and low power 8051 microcontroller core 32, 64 or 128 KB in-system programmable flash 8 KB RAM, 4 KB with data retention in all power modes Powerful DMA functionality Watchdog timer One IEEE 802.15.4 MAC timer, one general 16-bit timer and two 8-bit timers Hardware debug support Peripherals CSMA/CA hardware support Digital RSSI / LQI support Battery monitor and temperature sensor 12-bit ADC with up to eight inputs and configurable resolution AES security coprocessor Two powerful USARTs with support for several serial rotocols 21 general I/O pins, two with 20mA sink/source capability Development tools Powerful and flexible development tools available
