Product Brief

HAN250EP
Product Family

Xsilons family of HAN250EP Internet of Things connectivity devices are

Hanadu In-Home M2M endpoint modems for embedded IEEE- and
IETF-compliant communications in residential and commercial
environments.
Hanadu delivers high-integrity 250kbps throughput of 802.15.4 traffic (eg
Thread, ZigBee, 6LoWPAN) over in-home powerline wiring, providing
seamless end-to-end interworking with radio-based 802.15.4 solutions.
Hanadu combines radio and powerline connectivity to deliver whole home
coverage using a common 802.15.4 platform, much as Ethernet already
underpins a common platform via WiFi and HomePlug for broadband.
HAN250EP devices act as endpoint Hanadu network nodes for deployment in embedded systems and
low cost devices. The HAN250EP provides a wide and flexible range of host system interconnects,
capable of supporting all embedded product designs.
Variants within the HAN250EP family include advanced feature sets such as embedded power
measurement functionality for monitoring the energy consumption of the host system, integral program
flash memory, on-chip application processing capability, and a further device specifically configured
for in-home connectivity for smart meter applications.
HAN250EP key features
Single-chip highly integrated Hanadu 250kbps powerline modem technology
QFN 48-pin 7mm x 7mm package
-20C to +85C ambient temperature operating range
