Microprocessor and Development Tools - Embedded Control - Communications - Connectivity

 

Rabbit Semiconductor  - powerful 8-bit microprocessor cores and development kits for embedded systems
 

Rabbit Semiconductor is a fabless semiconductor company specializing in high-performance 8-bit microprocessors and development tools for embedded control, communications, and Ethernet connectivity. Rabbit Semiconductor introduce the first Rabbit 2000® microprocessor in 1999 and the second Rabbit 3000® in 2002.
 

Typical applications of Rabbit Semiconductor products

  • Automated meter reading devices (utility)

  • Biodefense systems

  • Wireless fleet/asset tracking and management

  • Retail point-of-sale (POS) systems

  • Broadband communications

  • Audio/Video/Broadcast equipment control

  • Traffic monitoring devices,

  • Manufacturing control and sensing systems

  • Industrial networking

 

The Rabbit microprocessors are programmed using Dynamic C® software development system - an integrated C compiler, editor, loader and debugger created specifically for Rabbit-based systems. Developing software with Dynamic C is easy. Users can write, compile, and test both C and Assembly code without leaving the Dynamic C development environment, and no costly in-circuit emulators are required.

Full TCP/IP stack with source code is provided royalty free in Dynamic C and with Development Kits. TCP/IP support includes PPP and SNMP, socket-level TCP and UDP, FTP, TFTP, HTTP (w/ SSI and CGI), DHCP, SMTP, POP3, and PING.

ZigBee™/802.15.4         On stock!!!

Application Kit

The ZigBee/802.15.4 Application Kit combines MaxStream®'s XBee™ RF modem with the popular RCM3720 RabbitCore™ module along with an easy-to-use interface to help customers build a practical ZigBee wireless control network. ZigBee paired with the RCM3720 provides a low-cost, robust wireless infrastructure that allows users to monitor and control remote devices within a wireless meshed network.

The kit contains three MaxStream® ZigBee modules for full application reference. One ZigBee module is connected to an Ethernet enabled RCM3720 RabbitCore Module. The RCM3720 runs at 22.1 MHz, and provides 10Base-T Ethernet, 512K Flash, 256K SRAM, 1MB Serial Flash as on-board memory, and 33 GPIO lines. The other two ZigBee modules are standalone node devices.

Samples, libraries and firmware helps to integrate a ZigBee network into a Rabbit-based embedded solution. A user-configurable interface allows users to set up a network, discover other similar ZigBee devices, and control LEDs and switches from an RF Interface board as a node device. The samples illustrate how a user can connect via the various topologies such as point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and mesh.

Rabbit and MaxStream Teamwork
  Rabbit Semiconductor and MaxStream are teaming up to supply embedded control and wireless solutions for customers to develop a ZigBee wireless control system. MaxStream's wireless modems are easy-to-use and provide reliable delivery of critical data between devices. The flexibility of the XBee/XBee-PRO™ RF Modules creates the perfect fusion of range, power-conservation, performance and networking features to ensure accurate and reliable RF communications.
