Overview

The JN5169 is an ultra-low-power, high-performance 32-bit RISC microcontroller designed for wireless sensor networks. It integrates a 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 compliant transceiver with 512 KB of Flash and 32 KB of RAM, specifically optimized for Zigbee and Thread networking stacks.

Why Choose This Part

The JN5169 provides a single-chip solution that eliminates the need for external Flash for OTA updates, reducing the system bill of materials. Its power efficiency is notable, featuring a 5.7mA CPU run current and highly optimized low-power modes for multi-year battery life.

Applications

Zigbee Smart Home
Ideal for light switches, dimmers, and smart plugs requiring mesh networking and low power consumption.
Wireless Sensor Nodes
Utilizes the 0.73uA sleep mode for battery-powered environmental sensors and security monitors.
Energy Management
Suited for smart meters and in-home displays that require over-the-air (OTA) firmware updates via the 512 KB internal Flash.
Industrial Automation
High tolerance to 2.4 GHz interference and an integrated power amplifier make it robust for factory floor communication.

Getting Started

Developers can use the JN5169DK006 Development Kit which provides all components for building Zigbee and Thread applications. Development is supported by a dedicated NXP toolchain and Software Development Kits (SDKs) for standard wireless protocols.

Also Consider
