Freescale Semiconductor Technical Data Document Number: MC13201 Rev. 1.3, 04/2008 MC13201 MC13201 2.4 GHz Low Power Transceiver for the IEEE® 802.15.4 Standard Package Information Plastic Package Case 1311-03 QFN -32 Ordering Information Device MC13201FC MC13201FCR2 (Tape and Reel) Device Marking 13201 13201 Package QFN-32 QFN-32 1 Introduction The MC13201 is a short range, low power, 2.4 GHz Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band transceivers. The MC13201 contains a complete packet data modem which is compliant with the IEEE® 802.15.4 Standard PHY (Physical) layer. This allows the development of proprietary point-to-point and star networks based on the 802.15.4 packet structure and modulation format. For full 802.15.4 Standard compliance, the MC13202 and Freescale's 802.15.4 MAC software are required. When combined with an appropriate microcontroller (MCU), the MC13201 provides a cost-effective solution for short-range data links and networks. Interface with the MCU is accomplished using a four wire serial peripheral interface (SPI) connection and an interrupt request output which allows for the use of a variety of processors. The software and processor can be scaled to fit applications ranging from simple point-to-point systems to star networks.
