Wireless Sensor Network

Wireless sensors networks are used when it is not possible or convenient to supply signaling or power supply wires to sensor nodes. These sensor nodes must be battery powered. This example illustrates typical sensor nodes that are used in an industrial process control system that has been implemented wirelessly. Silicon Labs offers a complete reference design solution for a wireless sensor node.
