ZigBee applications such as home and industrial automation, lighting, metering, and sensor networks could need longer RF transmission range and better sensitivity than the stand-alone CC2530 can offer. TI's new SimpleLink CC2530-CC2592 reference design pairs the cost-effective SimpleLink ZigBee CC2530 wireless MCU with SimpleLink CC2592 range extender improving the receiver sensitivity by 2-3 dB and increasing the total link budget to 120 dB, enabling significant improvements in the range of each node in the ZigBee network.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
