PRELIMINARY DATA SHEET FreeStar Transceiver Module ZFSM-101-3 Integrated Transceiver Module for ZigBee /IEEE 802.15.4 DESCRIPTION California Eastern Laboratories (CEL) s FreeStar Module is a small, fully-integrated, drop-in RF transmission solution that is FreeStar Transmit Power: 100 mW ideal for ZigBee and other low cost, low power IEEE 802.15.4 Receive Sensitivity: -91 dBm ZFSM-101-3 RF transmission applications. FreeStar incorporates the RF Data Rate: 250 kbps MC13202 transceiver IC and MC9S08GT60 microprocessor Based on the Freescale MC13202 from Freescale with a power amplifier and an Inverted-F PCB transceiver IC antenna. It delivers up to 4,000 feet of range and features a 8-bit HCS08-based MCU streamlined communications protocol that results in the lowest power consumption in transmit mode of any Module on the market. The FreeStar is also FCC and CE Certified, which eliminates the need for a costly and time-consuming approval process when incorporated into your design. FEATURES APPLICATIONS Communication Modes: Residential and Industrial Controls Point-to-Point, Point-to Multipoint, Mesh Networking Commercial Automation Asset Tracking and Monitoring 4,000+ feet Line
