Each ZigBee network will include one, and only one coordinator. This module coordinates the overall network operation and is the host application or gateway interface point for the network. The part number designation for a coordinator is ZMN2405-C. Router modules are capable of retransmitting messages and provide the mesh networking infrastructure in a ZigBee network. The part number designation for a router is ZMN2405-R. End node modules provide field connection points for sensors, data loggers, PLCs, etc. The coordinator and the routers in a ZigBee network must stay active (awake) continuously to support network operation. End nodes can be sleep duty cycled where needed for extended battery life operation. The part number designation for an end node is ZMN2405-E. A router can provide the same field connection support as an end node, but a router cannot be sleep duty cycled without affecting mesh network operation. Specify the number of modules for each firmware configuration when ordering ZMN2405 modules. CAUTION: Electrostatic Sensitive Device. Observe precautions when handling. www.RFM.com E-mail: info@rfm.com (c)2008 by RF Monolithics, Inc.

The ZMN2405 operates in the frequency band of 2405 to 2480 MHz at a nominal output power of 1 mW. The main firmware components in the ZMN2405 include the ZigBee protocol stack and RFM's CSM standard module application profile. The ZigBee protocol stack implements networking and security, with underlying support from the 802.15.4 Media Access Control (MAC) layer. The CSM profile provides an application programming interface (API) for all the ZMN2405 application hardware interfaces. The CSM profile includes Network Discovery, Send/Receive Serial Data, Read/Write SPI Port, Read ADC Inputs, Write DAC Outputs, Read/Write GPIO and Module Configuration services. In addition, the CSM profile provides two sleep modes - timer sleep and interrupt sleep. See the ZMN2405 ZigBee Module Developer's Kit User's Manual for complete details of the CSM profile API. Two crystals are provided to operate the CC2430, a 32 MHz crystal for normal operation and a 32.768 kHz crystal for precision sleep mode operation. The ZMN2405 provides a variety of application hardware interfaces including an SPI interface, UART interface, three 12-bit ADC inputs, two PWM (DAC) outputs, and six general purpose digital I/O ports. www.RFM.com E-mail: info@rfm.com (c)2008 by RF Monolithics, Inc.

Page 4 of 6 ZMN2405 - 5/20/08 RFIO Stripline The RFIO pad on the radio module is connected directly to an antenna on the host circuit board, or to an MMCX or similar RF connector. It is important that this connection be implemented as a 50 ohm stripline. Referring to Figure 3, the width of this stripline depends on the thickness of the circuit board between the stripline and the Z M N 2 4 0 5 O u tlin e a n d M o u n tin g D im e n s io n s 1 .2 0 0 0 .0 6 0 0 .0 9 0 1 8 0 .0 9 0 1 0 .0 3 0 S q u a re 1 9 0 .8 3 5 0 .7 9 0 T o p V ie w 3 6 0 .0 9 5 Figure 2 groundplane. For FR-4 type circuit board materials (dielectric constant of 4.7), the width of the stripline is equal to 1.75 times the thickness of the circuit board. Note that other circuit board traces should be spaced away from the stripline to prevent signal coupling, as shown in Figure 4. The stripline trace should be kept short to minimize its insertion loss.
