1. XBee-PRO 900HP RF Module Hardware

This manual describes the operation of the XBee-PRO® 900HP RF module, which consists of firmware loaded onto XBee- PRO
S3B hardware.

XBee-PRO 900HP embedded RF modules provide wireless connectivity to end-point devices in mesh networks. Utilizing the
XBee-PRO Feature Set, these modules are interoperable with other devices. With the XBee, users can have their network
up-and-running in a matter of minutes without configuration or additional development.

XBee-PRO S3B Hardware Description

The XBee-PRO S3B radio module hardware consists of an Energy Micro EFM32G230F128 microcontroller, an Analog
Devices ADF7023 radio transceiver, an RF power amplifier, and in the programmable version, a Freescale
MC9S08QE32 microcontroller.
