Silicon Labs Z-Wave Wireless 800 SiP Module Radio Board Pro Kit

Silicon Labs Z-Wave Wireless 800 SiP Module Radio Board Pro Kit is designed to quickly and easily demonstrate the ZGM230S Z-Wave® SiP Module. The kit includes the BRD4205B Radio Board and the required tools for developing a Silicon Labs wireless application.

The Silicon Labs BRD4205B is a plug-in board for the Wireless Pro Kit mainboard (BRD4002A) and the Wireless Starter Kit mainboard (BRD4001A), and it is a complete reference design for the ZGM230S SiP module. The board features an SMA connector for RF connection or a PCB antenna that can be selected by moving a 0Ω resistor. The mainboards incorporate an on-board J-Link debugger with a Packet Trace Interface and a virtual COM port, allowing application development and debugging of the attached radio board and external hardware. The mainboards also contain sensors and peripherals to demonstrate some of the ZGM230S’s many capabilities easily.
