Product Overview

The USB-KW24D512 board is an IEEE 802.15.4 packet sniffer in a convenient USB dongle form factor. Packet sniffers are essential for wireless network development allowing over the air traffic monitoring. As a standalone board, it can also be utilized in a lab as a development platform and programmed as a network node. The USB-KW24D512 includes MKW24D512 device with 32MHz reference crystal oscillator, RF circuitry including antenna and supporting circuitry in a USB stick hardware format. This is used in a simple standalone application or in combination with other boards. NXP provides a complete software development environment called the NXP BeeKit wireless connectivity toolkit. A wide range of software functionality is available to complement the USB-KW24D512 platform and these are provided as codebases with in BeeKit.
