Product Overview

The GP502 ZigBee-ready IEEE 802.15.4 communications controller is a fully integrated

transceiver solution for ultra-low power wireless communications. It is compliant with the IEEE

Standard 802.15.4, providing robust spread spectrum data communication with a secure

encrypted data flow.

The GP502 interference robustness and antenna diversity offer superior performance in a

crowded wireless 2.4 GHz environment. In addition, the GP502 presents a Coexistence

Interface to enable coexistence with other potentially interfering radios (Bluetooth®, Wi-Fi)

within the same host device.

The GP502 provides a high-speed serial interface (SPI) to the host processor.

It supports stand-alone RF4CE DutyCycling and packet filtering through Deep Packet

Inspection when the host is asleep and has an extremely low standby power consumption enabling total system power consumption

of less than 1 mW while allowing reception of remote control commands

The GP502 is optimized f

or low cost while providing superior performance. Its radio characteristics reduce the product’s RF design

complexity enabling low cost single layer applications using simple PCB antennas requiring no shielding and a minimum number of

external components.
