The JN5179-001-M00 module family provides designers with a ready-made component
that provides a fully integrated solution for applications, using the IEEE802.15.4 standard
in the 2.4 GHz - 2.5 GHz ISM frequency band, including ZigBee Sma rt Ener gy a nd Hom e
Automation and can be quickly and easily included in product designs. The module
integrates all of the RF components required, removing the n eed to perform expensive RF
design and test. Products can be designed by simply connecting sensors and switches to
the module IO pins. The module uses NXP’s single chip IEEE802.15.4 wireless
microcontroller, allowing designers to make use of the extensive chip development
support material. Hence, this module allows designers to bring wireless applications to
market in the minimum time with significantly reduce d de ve lopm en t effort and co st.

ZigBee PRO and IEEE802.15.4 JN5179-001-M00 module
4. Overview
5. Marking
The JN5179-001-M00 is an ultra-low power, high performance surface mount module
targeted at IEEE 802.15.4, ZigBee Smart Energy , ZigBee LightLink and Home Automation
networking applications, enabling us er s to re aliz e pr od uc ts with minim u m tim e to mark e t
and at the lowest cost. It removes the need for expensive and lengthy development of
custom RF board designs and test suites. The module uses NXP’s JN5179 wireless
microcontroller to provide a comprehensive solution with large memory, high CPU and
radio performance and all RF components included. All that is required to develop and
manufacture wireless control or sensing products is to connect a power supply and
peripherals such as switches, actuators and sensors, considerably simplifying product
development.
