Embedded ZigBee modules provide OEMs with a simple
way to integrate mesh technology into their application
Digi XBee and Digi XBee-PRO ZigBee RF modules provide
cost-effective wireless connectivity to electronic devices. They
are interoperable with other ZigBee PRO feature set devices,
including devices from other vendors*.
Digi XBee and Digi XBee-PRO ZigBee modules are ideal
for applications in the energy and controls markets where
manufacturing efficiencies are critical. The Serial Peripheral
Interface (SPI) provides a high-speed interface and optimizes
integration with embedded microcontrollers, lowering
development costs and reducing time to market.
Products in the Digi XBee family require little to no
configuration or additional development. Programmable
BENEFITS
– Programmable versions with on-board microprocessor
enable custom ZigBee application development
– Through-Hole and Surface Mount form factors enable
flexible design options
– Link budgets of 110 dB for Digi XBee and 119 dB for
Digi XBee-PRO
– Industry-leading sleep current
– Firmware upgrades via UART, SPI or over the air (OTA)
– Thread updatable on the S2D EM3587 variant for
maximum flexibility

versions of the Digi XBee and Digi XBee-PRO ZigBee module
make customizing applications easy. Programming directly
on the module eliminates the need for a separate processor.
Because the wireless software is isolated, applications can be
developed with no risk to RF performance or security.
Digi’s ZigBee compatible module is based on the Ember
EM35x (EM357 and EM3587) system on chip (SoC) radio ICs
from SiliconLabs, utilizing 32-bit ARM Cortex™ M3 processor.
The S2D EM3587 version has a larger memory footprint for
customers who may want to upgrade to Thread, an IPv6
based networking stack.
*Interoperability requires the ZigBee Feature Set or ZigBee PRO Feature Set to be deployed on all
devices. Contact Digi Support for details.

*Range figure estimates are based on free-air terrain with limited sources of interference. Actual range will vary based on transmitting power, orientation of transmitter and receiver,
height of transmitting antenna, height of receiving antenna, weather conditions, interference sources in the area, and terrain between receiver and transmitter, including indoor and
outdoor structures such as walls, trees, buildings, hills, and mountains.
