Typical Application
Description
SmartMesh IP wireless sensor networks are self managing, low power internet protocol (IP) networks built from wireless nodes called motes.The LTP™5901-IPM is printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) product with on-board chip antenna in the Eterna® family of IEEE 802.15.4e solutions, featuring a highly integrated, low power radio design as well as an ARM Cortex-M3 32-bit microprocessor running SmartMesh IP embedded networking software. The LTP5901-IPM, at 24mm x 42mm, is built for surface-mount assembly.
With SmartMesh IP time-synchronized networks, all motes in the network may route, source or terminate data, while providing many years of battery powered operation. SmartMesh IP is a highly flexible network with proven reliability and low power performance in an easy-to-integrate platform.
The LTP5901-IPM’s behavior in a SmartMesh IP network is determined by the choice of SmartMesh IP network software loaded: Wireless Mote, EManager, or Access Point Mote in a SmartMesh IP network. The SmartMesh IP software provided with the LTP5901-IPM is fully tested and validated, and is readily configured via a software Application Programming Interface. Once you have purchased SmartMesh IP products, the SmartMesh IP stack binaries may be downloaded via your myLinear account. Please fill out a request form here to enable access.
The pin signaling behavior of the LTP5901IPC-IPMA hardware is determined by the software loaded and is described in detail in the following product datasheets:
