E180-2G4Z20SX-TB Übersicht
A ZigBee module is a pre-certified, surface-mount radio module that integrates an RF transceiver, microcontroller, antenna interface, and matching networks into a single shielded package. ZigBee modules belong to the broader hierarchy of wireless connectivity modules -> short-range IoT radios -> 2.4 GHz ISM-band transceivers -> IEEE 802.15.4-based mesh networking devices, designed to reduce RF design complexity for OEMs building mesh-enabled smart products.
Key features of the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB test kit include: the host module operates in the 2.4 GHz ISM band with maximum transmit power of 20 dBm, supports ZigBee 3.0 self-organizing mesh networking, and provides USB power and serial port access via a 2.0 mm pitch pin header. The carrier PCB is pre-soldered to the E180-2G4Z20SX module so developers can plug the kit directly into a breadboard or USB host. Product weight is 3.5 g +/- 0.1 g.
The E180-2G4Z20SX-TB is purpose-built for engineers evaluating the E180-2G4Z20SX module: it exposes the module's UART, GPIO, and power pins through standard 2.54 mm headers, removes RF layout risk during firmware bring-up, and ships with reference firmware for rapid ZigBee 3.0 stack validation. The internal PA delivers the 20 dBm TX power needed for long-range mesh nodes.
Typical applications include ZigBee 3.0 smart-home device prototyping, industrial sensor mesh networking, smart metering pilots, building automation gateways, and wireless HVAC/lighting control development. The test kit is also used as a reference design for designers integrating the bare E180-2G4Z20SX module into their own carrier PCB.
When designing with this test kit, note that the kit is a development-only assembly - it is not intended for deployment in the final product. For production designs, use the host E180-2G4Z20SX module directly on a custom carrier PCB and obtain modular transmitter / certification requirements before shipping.

ZigBee 3.0 Smart Home Device Prototyping
The E180-2G4Z20SX-TB provides a plug-and-play evaluation platform for engineers developing ZigBee 3.0 end devices such as smart bulbs, sensors, and switches. The host module's 20 dBm TX power and self-organizing mesh support let designers verify range and commissioning behavior before committing to a custom carrier PCB. Using the kit with reference firmware shortens time-to-prototype for IEEE 802.15.4 mesh nodes.
Empfohlen
Industrial Sensor Mesh Network Pilot
Pilot deployments of industrial sensor meshes benefit from the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB's 2.4 GHz operation and 20 dBm maximum transmit power, which extends link margin in metal-rich factory environments. Engineers wire the kit's 2.0 mm header to external sensors via UART or GPIO, then validate mesh routing, range, and reliability before designing a sealed industrial housing. The kit accelerates pilot validation for IEEE 802.15.4-based sensor networks.
Empfohlen
Smart Metering and AMI Development
Smart metering Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) pilots leverage the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB's ZigBee 3.0 stack and 20 dBm TX power to validate mesh coverage for residential and small-commercial meter networks. The carrier's USB-style form factor simplifies desk testing of meter firmware and over-the-air firmware upgrade (OTA) flows. Engineers can characterize power consumption and RF performance using the same host module that ships in production designs.
Empfohlen
Building Automation and HVAC Control
Building automation gateways and wireless HVAC controllers use the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB to prototype ZigBee 3.0 coordinators and routers that join thermostats, dampers, and lighting nodes into a single mesh. The 2.4 GHz band and integrated power amplifier deliver reliable connectivity across commercial floor plates, while the carrier's accessible headers simplify wiring of UART-controlled actuators. The kit is well suited to commissioning-tool development for BAS integrators.
Empfohlen
Wireless Lighting Control Development
Wireless lighting control designers use the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB to evaluate ZigBee 3.0 mesh behavior for dimmers, color controllers, and luminaire nodes. The host module's 20 dBm TX power ensures robust mesh links across large lighting grids, while the carrier PCB's 2.0 mm headers allow direct connection to driver electronics for fast bring-up. The kit shortens the path from ZigBee stack bring-up to dimming firmware validation.
Empfohlen
IoT Mesh Reference Design Validation
Engineers building IoT reference designs use the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB as a known-good ZigBee 3.0 node against which to validate custom carrier PCBs and firmware stacks. The kit's pre-soldered host module eliminates RF variability during stack bring-up, allowing focus on application-layer behavior, OTA updates, and security provisioning. This makes the kit an effective baseline for regression testing across mesh product variants.

Wichtigste Unterscheidungsmerkmale
- Pre-soldered host module eliminates assembly risk during evaluation (vs. E180-2G4Z20SX (bare module))
- 2.0 mm pin header exposes UART, GPIO, and power for breadboard prototyping (vs. Bare E180-2G4Z20SX module (SMD only))
- Identical RF silicon to the production variant (EFR32MG21 + integrated PA) (vs. Third-party EFR32MG21 carrier boards)
Designhinweise
Do not integrate the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB into a shipped product. Per the Ebyte product specification, the -TB suffix denotes a development-only assembly with a 28.5 x 24.6 mm carrier PCB and 2.0 mm headers intended for bench evaluation. For production designs, place the host E180-2G4Z20SX bare module directly onto your own carrier PCB and obtain modular transmitter / certification requirements for your target market before volume shipment.
The E180-2G4Z20SX-TB accepts external power and serial connections through its 2.0 mm pitch header. Verify the supply voltage matches the host module's range before powering the kit; the bare E180-2G4Z20SX module's electrical ratings are documented in the host datasheet (cdebyte.com/pdf-down.aspx?id=3923). Add bulk decoupling at the supply pins to suppress USB-bus noise during RF transmission at the 20 dBm maximum power level.
When characterizing radiated performance with the E180-2G4Z20SX-TB, keep the carrier board clear of metal surfaces and enclosures that can detune the host module's integrated antenna. Mount the kit on a non-conductive stand during range tests to obtain repeatable 2.4 GHz link-budget measurements. For conducted RF testing, refer to the host module datasheet for the RF test pad layout rather than probing the carrier PCB.
Compliance-Informationen
RoHS compliance confirmed by JLCPCB and LCSC product listings for the host module and test kit. REACH, halogen-free, and conflict-minerals status were not explicitly published in the verified data and are marked unknown. AEC-Q100 does not apply - this is a development kit, not an automotive-qualified IC.
