| Tendril Accelerates Customer Deployments of Zigbee Applications Tendril has expanded its collaboration with Texas Instruments Incorporated to accelerate customer deployments of ZigBee applications on TI's ZigBee 2006 Compliant Platform. Through this partnership, TI will initially include information about Tendril's Network Operating Platform software in its developer kits. In the future, Tendril's software will be fully integrated with TI's ZigBee platform. The Tendril Network Operating Platform is the first extensible software platform that helps manufacturers and integrators quickly build ZigBee applications, effectively deploy them in the field, and easily manage them when operational. The Tendril Network Operating Platform eliminates the burden of bringing ZigBee applications to market and to large-scale production rollouts – allowing users to focus on specific ZigBee applications and the deployment, management and monitoring of their network. Through this relationship, Tendril and TI will also collaborate on a variety of joint development projects to support customers at all levels. The TI CC2430 is a second-generation ZigBee Compliant Platform and a true System-on-Chip solution. The CC2430 combines the excellent performance of the CC2420 RF transceiver with an industry–standard enhanced MCU, 32/64/128 KB flash memory, 8 KB RAM and many other powerful features. CC2430's sleep mode and its short transition time to active mode makes it a suitable solution for applications that require very long battery lifetime. This configuration can be used for all kinds of ZigBee wireless network nodes, including coordinators, routers and end devices. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Networking News :: home page |
