ZigBee- Ready RF Transceiver Module CTL3585
1. General Description
The CTL3585 are compact surface mounted High Power Wireless RF Transceiver Module
specially designed for Ember ZigBee™ protocol stack for wireless networks, EmberZNet, based on
IEEE 802.15.4 standard in the 2.4GHz world-wide ISM band. The size of CTL3514 is 19.2 x 16 x
2.8 mm and the size of CTL3585 is 23.5x16 x2.8mm.It integrated a 2.4GHz, IEEE 802.15.4-2003
compliant transceiver with a 32-bit network processor (ARM Cortex-M3 Processor) to run
EmberZNet. It contains embedded FLASH and integrated RAM for program and data storage. It
utilizes the non-intrusive SIF module for powerful software debugging and programming of the
network processor.
