Sirius IDK

Zolertia Sirius IDK platform

The Sirius IDK (Industrial Development Kit) has been designed for a wide range of industrial applications, targeting the following verticals:

Lighting control
Preventive maintenance
Remote monitoring and control
Wire replacement

This Board has a Zoul and provides the following features:

0-10V driver for dimming control (lighting)
Master/slave DALI driver
Communication over RS-485
Isolated output over photo-couple.
Isolated Relay, up to 5A/277VAC
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE 4.2)
IEEE 802.15.4 dual band radios (2.4GHz and 868/915MHz)
External 4Mbit memory up 104Mbps.
Real Time Clock and Calendar with retention
On-board CP2104/PIC to flash over USB.
mikroBus compatible
Form factor compatible with DIN rail box
Wide range DC Power input 7-60V.

The Sirius can be programmed and debugged over JTAG and USB. The board has a CP2104 USB to serial converter with a PIC, it allows to program the CC2538 without having to manually to put the device in bootloader mode.
