SLWRB4503A Silicon Labs

Reference Manual BRD4503A (Rev. B00) The EZR32LG family of Wireless MCUs deliver a high performance, low energy wireless solution inte- grated into a small form factor package. By combining a high performance sub-GHz RF transceiver with an energy efficient 32-bit MCU, the family provides designers the ultimate in flexibility with a fam- ily of pin-compatible devices that scale from 64/128/256 kB of flash and support Silicon Labs EZRadio or EZRadioPRO transceivers. The ultra-low power operating modes and fast wake-up times of the Silicon Labs energy friendly 32-bit MCUs, combined with the low transmit and receive power con- sumption of the sub-GHz radio, result in a solution optimized for battery powered applications. To develop and/or evaluate the EZR32 Leopard Gecko the EZR32LG Radio Board can RADIO BOARD FEATURES be connected to the Wireless Starter Kit Mainboard to get access to display, buttons and additional features from Expansion Boards.
