8-bit Wireless Development Kit – 2.4 GHz MRF24J40
8-bit Wireless Development Kit – 2.4 GHz MRF24J40 is an easy-to-use evaluation and development platform for IEEE 802.15.4 application designers. This kit includes Microchip’s MRF24J40 transceiver module and also features Microchip’s PIC18 XLP microcontroller family. The kit includes complete hardware needed to rapidly prototype wireless applications. The demonstration kit is pre-programmed with MiWi™ protocol stack and you can find the demo instructions in the user’s guide. To learn more about MiWi wireless protocol, please visit www.microchip.com/MiWi.

The PIC18 demonstration board is equipped with a 28-pin PICtail™ connector to interface with Microchip's wireless transceiver PICtail daughter boards such as MRF24J40MA, MRF89XAM8A and MRF49XA.

Developers can reprogram or modify the PIC18 MCU Flash memory and develop and debug application code all on the same platform.

Note: This kit is not intended for ZigBee^® development. For ZigBee development, please visit www.microchip.com/zigbee
