The AVR2016 RZRAVEN Hardware User's Guide describes the RZRAVEN development kit for the AT86RF230 radio transceiver and AVR microcontroller. The kit consists of one RZUSBSTICK module and two AVRRAVEN modules, and is intended for developing and debugging RF applications from point-to-point communication to sensor networks.
The guide covers the AVRRAVEN module's ATmega1284P and ATmega3290P microcontrollers, the AT86RF230 radio transceiver, LCD, speaker, microphone, Serial Dataflash, Serial EEPROM, real time clock, NTC and power supply. It also documents the user interfaces, programming and relay interfaces, voltage measurement and GPIO connections.
