Comparison of 802.15.4 radio modules

Comparison of 802.15.4 radio modules

This table lists production ready-to-use modules only, not radio chips. A ready-to-use module is a complete MCU+Transceiver+Antenna on a printed circuit board. While most of the modules in this list are ZigBee, ISA100.11a, or WirelessHART modules, some don't contain enough flash memory to implement a ZigBee stack and instead run plain 802.15.4 protocol, sometimes with a lighter wireless protocol on top.

Most of the modules below contain chip solutions listed in the ZigBee Chip Comparison

Contents

Transceiver only modules

These modules don't including a processing unit. They are generally lower in price and enable the integrator to choose any MCU solution. However, potentially more work is required integrating the MCU and module.
