Elektor Designer's Companion

Software Tools & Development kits

On this DVD-ROM you'll find a number of technical documents and tools that will enable you to add wireless data exchange to your electronics systems.

The choice of equipment depends on the transmission distance : a few centimetres using Near Field Communication or Radio Frequency Identification, tens of metres with the Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or ZigBee systems, or indeed thousands of kilometres using a module for receiving GPS data.

Take a look at the following two main sections :

¤ General : a selection of white books, application notes, links to online articles, links to information sites, etc.

¤ Elektor articles : a selection of articles that have appeared in Elektor (RFID, xBee, DCF77, GPS, infrared, etc.) in recent years.

We've brought together technical documentation (spec. sheets, application notes, user guides, etc.) on various devices according to the frequency and/or protocol used : tables on the contents page summarize the main standards, the available frequency ranges (ISM bands, for example), the standard and proprietary protocols. Several electronic component manufacturers have developed their own communication protocols for low-power wireless networks. These proprietary systems are often easier and cheaper to implement than systems based on an international standard with a profusion of functions.
