Ember's fourth-generation embedded wireless mesh networking platform has passed ZigBee certification testing.

Ember Corporation announced at the Milan ZigBee Open House that its fourth-generation embedded wireless mesh networking platform has passed ZigBee certification testing The new EM250 ZigBee system-on-a-chip (SoC) with EmberZNet 2.2 ZigBee network stack is the second Ember platform to achieve ZigBee-compliant status

Introduced last June, this 802.15.4/ZigBee-based semiconductor system integrates a programmable microprocessor, RF radio, network protocol stack and memory into a tiny, single-chip solution smaller than a shirt button.

Achieving official ZigBee-compliant status benefits Ember's customers and partners by bringing a number of benefits, including: ZigBee-compliant marketing and promotional validation for their products, assured interoperability with other vendor's ZigBee-compliant platform based products, additional consumer credibility and market acceptance for their products, and assurance that their own end-user products will have to undergo minimal ZigBee platform compliance when they undergo third-party testing, thus speeding product entry into the market.
