AVR 8-Bit RISC - IEEE 802.15.4/ZigBee

Go wireless with AVR Z-Link

For more than a decade AVR has established itself as one of the most recognized and low power microcontrollers in the market. With its efficient core and excellent peripherals it is the perfect match for most microcontroller applications, including the quickly growing segment of wireless applications.

Atmel is committed to providing cost effective, easy-to-use, highly reliable system solutions for the wireless market. Our goal is to provide our customers with a solution that enables development of state of the art wireless products with the shortest possible time to Market.

Supporting that goal, Atmel has developed a complete IEEE 802.15.4 compliant and ZigBee™ certified solution based on a family of RF transceivers, AVR microcontrollers, free software, reference designs and development kits.

AVR Z-Link offers flexibility through the AVR family of 8-bit RISC microcontrollers with flash memory densities ranging from 1 KB to 256 KB, enabling you to choose from a large number of devices to find the one suited for your design. With its fast core and feature rich peripherals, AVR will be able to offer both wireless communication and handle main applications.

AVR Z-Link offers industry leading 2.4GHz RF transceivers with superior line-of-sight range, and a radio requiring only six external components, to give you an edge both in terms of cost and flexibility.
