Description

The ZWIR4532 is a programmable low-power secure IPv6

communication module for internet of things (IOT) device networks.

Sensors and devices can operate autonomously or connect to local

or global IPv6 networks using the ZWIR4532. The ZWIR4532

serves as a universal secure radio communication module for

applications with low bandwidth requirements.

32-bit microcontroller which is running the network stack. In

addition, the user application can run on the microcontroller. This

helps minimizing the size, complexity and overall BOM. A rich set

of digital and analog peripherals is available for interfacing with

external application components. Approximately 128kB of flash

and 4kB of RAM are available for user applications.

IDT offers the SensorShare user programmable royalty-free

6LoWPAN network stack with mesh routing capability for the

ZWIR4532. 6LoWPAN is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF)

standard for wireless low-power IPv6-based sensor and device

networks.

Secure communication is provided by a standard-compliant

implementation of the Internet Protocol Security (IPSec) protocol

suite.
