Integration Announces Certification of Four New ZigBee(TM)-Compliant Platforms.


Widest Range of Pre-Certified ZigBee Development Options Demonstrates Robustness and Flexibility of Integration's CompXs ZigBee Stack(TM)

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. -- Integration Associates, a high performance analog, mixed-signal semiconductor solutions provider for wireless, wireline, and power management applications announced today the successful certification of an additional four new ZigBee-Compliant Platforms, bringing to six the company's total number of pre-certified solutions -- the broadest and most diverse range of platforms and architectures available to ZigBee developers from any single provider.

Based around Oki's 2.4GHz IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields.  802.15.4 ML7065 transceiver, the four newly certified platforms include Integration's EZLink(TM) OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and  modules (IA OEM DAUB1 2400, IA OEM DAMD DAMD Duct Air Monitor Device 1 2400), and two plug and play Oki evaluation environments (the AME-51 ZigBee Advantage Microcontroller Evaluation Kit and the Oki zNED Network Evaluation/Developers' Board).

These platforms offer an increased range of flexibility for developers and include the following Integration CompXs ZigBee Stack solutions:

The first pre-certified Integration EZLink platform is the IA OEM-DAUB1 2400 USB USB
 in full Universal Serial Bus

Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer.
 dongle The term was originally slang for a "hardware key." Today, the term is often used to refer to any small adapter that has a short cable with connectors at both ends. See hardware key and PC Card dongle. , which is designed to provide a simple method of integrating 802.15.4/ZigBee into computers, gateways, and/or bridge devices. The module is targeted to application developers by making the API available directly for use in any programming environment or wrapped as a C++ class for ease of use.

The other pre-certified Integration EZLink Module is the IA OEM-DAMD1 2400, which is targeted to application development and low volume projects. By exposing the ZigBee API over an asynchronous Refers to events that are not synchronized, or coordinated, in time. The following are considered asynchronous operations. The interval between transmitting A and B is not the same as between B and C. The ability to initiate a transmission at either end.  serial interface, this module is designed to be the easiest way to add ZigBee to an existing product.

As the first ARM7-based ZigBee solutions, the third and fourth platforms create additional flexibility for the OEM through inclusion of the popular Oki microcontroller series. These platforms make available the resources of the ARM7 microcontroller to achieve the best balance of cost, capability, and size.

"With six currently available ZigBee-compliant platforms, Integration becomes the only ZigBee solution provider to offer a ZigBee stack that has demonstrated its flexibility and robustness through a wide range of successful certifications," said Scott Parker Scott Parker may refer to:
