- Interconnected lighting, dimmer switches, touch sensors and intelligent gateway reference designs This article refers to the address: http:// With ZigBee "golden unit" HA 1.2 protocol stack - 21ic News Silicon Labs has announced a series of complete ZigBee product reference designs designed to help developers reduce time-to-market and simplify the development of ZigBee-based home automation, connected lighting and smart gateway products. In a series of turnkey IoT solutions first introduced by Silicon Labs, the new reference design includes all the hardware, firmware and software tools developers need to build interoperable, scalable, feature-rich connected home products, all based on Silicon Labs Powerful and industry-leading ZigBee "Golden Unit" Smart Home (HA 1.2) software stack and ZigBee System-on-Chip (SoC) mesh networking technology. Lee Ratliff, principal analyst for IHS Technology's Internet and Internet of Things, said: "Connected homes are one of the most attractive markets for wireless connectivity, and a host of applications such as home automation and connected lighting are driving their growth and growing at an incredible rate. IHS predicts that shipments of connected home devices will grow from 59 million units in 2015 to 193 million units in 2018, with a compound annual growth rate of over 48%. Ratliff believes that successful connected home products must be standards-based. , user-friendly, designed to run in the real world, and able to solve specific problems with minimal complexity." The cost-effective reference design created by Silicon Labs greatly simplifies the development of connectable ZigBee products (such as lights, dimmer switches, door/window touch sensors, etc.) in connected home networks. As more and more consumers buy “do-it-yourself†connected home products at large home improvement retailers (such as Home Depot and Lowes), this design simplicity translates into great ease of use. Silicon Labs' ZigBee Connected Lighting Reference Design features wireless lighting panels and plug-in demo boards for quick demonstration and testing. The Gold Unit ZigBee protocol stack allows LED lights to reliably join, interoperate, and leave the mesh network. It also supports the expansion of several to hundreds of light nodes in the same network. Interconnected lighting supports white light, color temperature adjustment and RGB color settings as well as dimming. Silicon Labs' ZigBee-based home automation reference design includes a capacitive sensing dimmer switch and a small-size door/window contact sensor. The dimmer switch provides color selection, color adjustment, and dimming control that is not supported by conventional switches. Unlike traditional switches, these wireless, battery-powered switches have no moving mechanical parts and can be placed anywhere in the house. The switch design uses Silicon Labs' EFM8 capacitive sensing MCU to detect different user gestures (touch, hold, and slide). The contact sensor reference design provides all the tools needed to create a wireless, battery-powered sensor that monitors the door/window position (open or closed). One of the most useful features is the ability to automatically trigger indoor lighting. Silicon Labs offers developers two ZigBee gateway options to make the reference design more complete: · Plug and Play USB Virtual Gateway, which works with any PC development platform and supports Windows, OS X and Linux environments as virtual machines; · Select the “out of the box†Wi-Fi/Ethernet gateway reference design, which is based on an embedded Linux computer system. These two gateway options allow developers to control and monitor ZigBee HA 1.2 compliant end nodes on any web browser-enabled device (such as a smartphone or tablet) via Wi-Fi. Using an intuitive, web-based user interface, developers can easily create rules between ZigBee end devices including lights, dimmer switches, and touch sensors. The Connected Lighting and Home Automation reference design supports the following features: Silicon Labs' industry-leading EM358x mesh network SoC integrates the ARM® Cortex®-M3 processor core with a low-power 2.4GHz 802.15.4 transceiver. · Low-power design to extend battery life: With a single CR2032 coin cell battery, the dimmer switch is supported for up to 3 years and the contact sensor is supported for up to 5 years. · Silicon Labs Gold Unit ZigBee PRO certified software stack and ZigBee HA 1.2 certified applications that support interoperability with other HA 1.2 certified devices. · OTA ZigBee update, upgrade to Silicon Labs Thread software in the future. · Supports mesh network capacity of tens to hundreds of independently selected nodes without the need for costly rewiring of existing systems. · The best wireless development kit with configuration and debugging tools for simplified design, and the EM358x SoC on-chip packet trace port for network signal debugging. · FCC/CE pre-certified hardware for easy system configuration and fast time to market. · Complete schematic, place and route, and bill of materials (BOM) documentation. Greg Hodgson, senior director of Internet Labs Solutions at Silicon Labs, said: "Developers who create connected home products want simple, high-performance, energy-efficient solutions that deliver fast, easy, and intuitive wireless design. Our latest interconnected lighting, Home automation and ZigBee gateway reference design meet the priority needs of these developers, providing the most powerful and easy-to-use hardware and software solutions." As a ZigBee market share leader with more than a decade of experience in mesh networking technology, Silicon Labs has become a trusted partner in the connected home market. Silicon Labs is a founding member of the Thread Group and the first vendor to showcase the Thread network and provide the Thread protocol stack. Mesh network solutions from other chip vendors often fail to achieve the desired goals in real-world applications, and Silicon Labs' powerful, field-proven software stack enables fast and consistent joinability of connectable devices.
