1 Introduction
This application note describes the ATAVRRZ502 Accessory Kit (RZ502). The
RZ502 is designed for evaluation of the Atmel AT86RF230 2.4 GHz radio
transceiver. This radio transceiver fully complies with the IEEE 802.15.4™
standard and targets low-power wireless technologies within home, building and
industrial automation such as ZigBee™.
An evaluation application is available together with this document. This application
shows how to set up a peer-to-peer network, with two nodes, and send data using
the wireless link.
