MICA2DOT
WIRELESS MICROSENSOR MOTE

3rd Generation, Quarter-Sized (25mm), Wireless Smart Sensor TinyOS - Unprecedented Communications and Processing Battery-Powered, Low-Mass Fits Anywhere, Wireless Reprogrammable Wireless Communications with Every Node as Router Capability 868/916 MHz, 433 MHz or 315 MHz Multi-channel Radio Transceiver (MICA2 Compatible)

MICA2DOT
Processor and Radio Platform (MPR500CA): The MPR500CA is based on the Atmel ATmega 128L. The ATmega 128L is a low-power microcontroller which runs TOS from its internal flash memory. Using TOS, a single processor board (MPR500CA) can be configured to run your sensor application/processing and the network/radio communications 868/916MHz, 433MHz or stack simultaneously. The 315MHz multi-channel transceiver with extended range MICA2DOT features 18 solderless expansion pins for connecting 6 TinyOS (TOS) Distributed Software Operating System v1.0 Analog Inputs, Digital I/O, and a with improved networking stack serial communication or UART interface. These interfaces make and improved debugging it easy to connect to a wide features variety of external peripherals. Support for wireless remote Sensor Boards: reprogramming Various sensor boards and data Compatible with MICA2 acquisition boards are available (MPR400) Mote from Crossbow . These boards On Board Temperature Sensor, connect onto the MICA2DOT Battery Monitor, and LED through a ring of 18 solderless expansion pins. These pins allow TinyOS 1.0 is a small, opensource, energy efficient, software boards to be stacked both above and below the MICA2DOT operating system developed by UC Berkeley which supports large processor radio board. Crossbow supplies the following expansion scale, self-configuring sensor boards: networks. The source code and MDA500CA: Protoboard software development tools are Contact Crossbow for publicly available at: information on other boards http://webs.cs.berkeley.edu/tos The MICA2DOT Mote is a third generation mote module used for enabling low-power, wireless, sensor networks. The MICA2DOT is similar to the MICA2, except for its quarter-sized (25mm) form factor and reduced input/output channels. The following features make the MICA2DOT better suited for commercial deployment;

Base Stations: The MICA2DOT communicates with base stations that use the MICA2 radio module. These include a standard MICA2 (MPR400CB) mated to a Mote Interface Board (MIB510CA) , as well as the MICA-WEB Gateway. Packaging: The MICA2DOT is presently distributed as a stand-alone subassembly without packaging. In future, a small plastic housing will be available. Developers Kits: Crossbow offers a variety of development kits for the MICA2 and MICA2DOT Motes. Ordering Information
