EZMac® Software

Embedded Media Access Control Software

Silicon Labs’ EZMac® media access control software module is developed in C code for use with our RF ISM transceiver products and MCUs to create very low cost mesh networks. With the EZMac software, transceiver application designers are provided with a simplified interface to the physical radio layer that manages the delivery of signals and their associated packets from the transmitter to the receiver, between nodes.

• Supports ISM band transceivers
• Internal baud rate generator
• 16 byte payload per packet
• Dedicated crystal oscillator for exact timing
• DQD (data quality detector) for FSK fast frequency hopping
• Configurable packet filtering
• Multiple error detection
• Nine basic machine states (sleep, wake up, idle, check DQD, receive packet, packet ready, listen before talk, transmit packet, transmit error)
• Supports various addressing modes (broadcast, multicast, promiscuous)
• Full function and reduced function versions available
• Patents pending
